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.

Hello,
I'm new to Porsche but have been a fan since I was a kid. My 'real world' dream car is a GT3 (obviously) but unfortunately my bank balance doesn't agree. So last week I picked up, to me, the next best thing: a 2001 Carrera 2 with factory fitted Aerokit. Everything is original apart from the Dansk exhaust.
I really wanted an Aerokit car and was lucky to have found one with GT3 alloys and M030 sport chassis. With the optional sport seats the car is pretty much my ideal specs except for 'sunroof delete' and LSD, but as you all know those options are rare.
I have not driven it much yet thanks to bad weather so I'm looking forward to drive it properly. Anyway a few pictures:
My other car is a Honda Integra DC2. It's a bit rusty and it's pink but it's mechanically sound, dependable and fun to drive. It's a superb driver's car and I love it.
:bye:

:welcome: to911uk and to 911 ownership
She's certainly aged well for a 15 year old car.
The esteemed 'GT4' of this parish formerly had a same vintage, similarly aero-kitted car and coincidentally also supplied by Lindbrook/Tonbridge OPC.
:welcome: That is a very good looking car and as others have noted an impressive list of factory options.
Love the aerokit btw.
I see your in Hampshire, I'm in Fleet.
But what's the location? Lasham?
Hopefully we'll get to meet during the forthcoming summer.
Lovely car OP!
I always said I wouldn't buy a 996 without the Aerokit but I got impatient and everything else on mine stacked up. I'll definitely be gathering the parts over the next year or two though. I like the simplicity of a non aerokitted car but with the kit and split rims they're on another level visually.
Enjoy!
Nice integra too. Had an EP3 type R once but didn't gel with it. Would be fun for track only mind. Will get back into trackdays in a couple of years I hope.
I miss Cadwell Park.
Cheers everyone. I was lurking for a little while when I was researching for 996; great forum and plenty of good info for newbies like myself.
I'm at the outskirts of Southampton.

I'm pretty sure I've seen your old red GT3 at one of the PH threads. I might have even seen it in the fresh; did you head up to Scotland in Sept 14? Our group drove past a red GT3 and he was a PHer. Could have been a different person though! :dont know:
Will you be using Brookspeed in Eastleigh ,they are my indy of choice. As your only 25 miles away and I have a business in Southampton so I am sure we will catch up at one or another meet. :grin: :thumb:
