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.

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.

Would this put you off? Positive side is the car is mega spec. Downside is maybe ragged in its early life by people not sympathetic to the car? PDK so no over-rev issue (?) but what are your thoughts on the whole?
If it's a 67 then I'd be a lot more concerned about how it's been treated in the real world in the last 8 years - than in the first three months as a money no object demo.
To the above post, car looks in exceptional condition, which is a good sign. Very low mileage too.
So it is a 67-plate and this is the service history. It will also have a service (OPC) prior to sale. Does this look ok?
Two majors in a row? Gap to the pending service 2.5 years but car is very low mileage as I say.
Guys, things being imperfect bug me more than they should. I notice this in quite a lot of 981s and 718s. Is this just a case of removing and reseating the trim piece? Or will it always be like this?

Thoughts anyone?
Morning, go to say I have driven a few 718 and never seen this build quality before. Could it mean that part of the dash has been taken out for some reason. Agree it would bug me every time I got in the car unless it was sorted.
