Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

haven't checked in for a while, so just thought I would say hi :-) Had the 987 Spyder since Jan 2011 when it had just 900 miles on the clock - last week, it ticked over 91,000 miles and I have loved every single one of them THE HIGHS FAST AS FECK! - the handling - the noise - the seats - wind on my scalp - the looks - 30+ mpg - 20,000 servicing - 15,000 on a set of rear tyres - 22,000 on a set of fronts - 80,000 miles on a set of disks, paddle shift - pdk - can fit two bicycles in it - can fit a bicycle and a passenger in it - can fit 12 bags of horse manure in it + passenger - the roof blah blah blah THE LOWS one control relay and a slightly rusty set of tail pipe ends I love it, and it still looks like it did the day I got it - makes me smile and makes any journey an event and still fast as feck! ta ra for now khushy

POST 5Original post

Amazing! Nice to hear from you again,thought you had sold the spyder and moved on! Good to hear the news that the new cars(gen2)are good for high miles with little costs! How does the engine feel after 91k miles? Edited by itsybitsy on Friday 18th September 17:53

POST 9Original post

That's a blast from the past! Good to see the car driven as it was designed for. I'm only on 7,000 miles five years which I means it's not even properly 'run-in'. Note to self - get out more.
