I see a small few P reg about and have an R Reg so I know the 996 by that reckoning will be in its 25th year from July this year as we will be marking 25 years after the 1997 Frankfurt motor show launch. Anyone know if we are going to get the same plaudits as the Boxster got over the last 12 months or so or are we getting the Will Smith treatment? Exciting times Perhaps lets create a 25 year old gallery in the mean time ?

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.

That's a massive coolant leak you've got there .. [ ] We had a Garden Party ..[ ]
Think that was more my age than the coolant tank ;-) it was all that cold air, any way all looks to be in hand with the press..

There is an advert for it on the 996 Carerra Facebook page it says the Heritage Parts centre is at 47 Dolphin Rd, Shoreham-by-Sea BN43 6PB Register as above at 9werks.co.uk/register (Event is nothing to do with me) Thanks Ian https://www.facebook.com/9WERKS/videos/514305230359027 Hope this helps Ian
