Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

In short - they seem to have used spendy oversized disks for the purpose of little more than aesthetics.

TBH this car is the absolute opposite of my taste- I'd rather have a GT3 engine and running gear in what looks to be a bone stock C2
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

How would you get it to pass an MOT?

You could definitely get the girls in the back of that, Phil. Just tell them the scaffolding is like a jungle jim that keeps 'em safe... :grin:
I'll go halves with you. :thumb:
"GT3 performance without the GT3 pricetag" :grin:
Sorry, but a 3.4 (even remapped with changes to the induction and exhaust) simply isn't going to perform in any way like a GT3. There are some nice bits on it, but some puzzlers too. Why on Earth would you want to fork out for needlessly spendy 380mm disks when you only have 2 pot callipers and 300hp? That wing is going to really hurt high speed performance and range even at motorway speeds as well, and how much cornering force do you really want with a wet sump M96 without even the full set of X51 upgrades... :?:
Probably still a pretty decent car if you were buying for the look and that is your thing, but to my mind it isn't what I would do for either road or track use.
Much too blinging for my taste, but I would appreciate the bigger brakes. I find those on my C2 to be a bit poor. I'm pretty sure the ad states the car has 997 calipers as well as the larger discs, so it all probably works and pads/discs shouldn't be crazy money to replace. Way too much tyre on it for my driving style also.
I'd keep the wing though, that's a good place to leave your tea whilst you're pulling off all the stickers.
It says OE 380mm (making it 997.2 GT3) rotors... Over £1k per axle. It said 997S callipers - 4 pots designed to sweep 330mm disks. In short - they seem to have used spendy oversized disks for the purpose of little more than aesthetics. :dont know:
