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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All I was contacted today by a journalist wanting an owners perspective of their 996 Turbo, I have listed below the type of questions he needs answers to. If your interested and can help please email me or give me a call and I will put you in touch. 1 How long have you had the car? What attracted you to this particular example? Tell us the story of how you found and bought it. 2 How much do you use it, and what do you use it for? 3. How much does regular maintenance cost? Are parts easy to get? 4. Has anything gone wrong or needed major work? What was that, what did it cost and how easy/difficult was it to fix? 5.What is support like from clubs, specialists etc? 6. What is the biggest joy of running one? 7.What has been the biggest challenge? 8.What advice would you give someone thinking of buying one? Is there anything important to look out for? A couple of sentences in answer to each question would be ideal as there is only a small space available. I also need a head and shoulders of the owner to run alongside their comments in the magazine. Kind regards Andy
