These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

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

  • 911uk: 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

Hi, I have been lurking here for many months and other sites doing my home work on costs. I have driven the 993 and 996 and decided that for my needs a 996 C4 is the business. I have today had a test drive in a very impressive C4 with the factory fitted GT3 aerokit, GT3 alloys and therefore with the rear 285/30 tyres, dropped suspension, sports exhaust, (and is does sound sweet not boy racerish, I am 37!!), leather pack, aluminium pack. Immaculate condition. They guy wants £37,200. For that I get the car and 12 months MOT, 12 months Porsche Warranty and Porsche service. The car has 29,200 miles. 2 new warranty Pirelli rear tyres. I know I can get C2 with the aero kits for £32,000 but want the C4 with the PMS. What do you guys think. I initially went in at £36,000 but he is coming back with that deal. Trouble free motoring for a year!! Alan. Possible a happy C4 owner Migration info. Legacy thread was 25812

POST 2Original post

you don't say how old the car is...... but assuming the mileage with a porsche warranty & service it sounds like a reasonable deal.. depends on what come from the PPI... Migration info. Legacy thread was 25813

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi It is an S reg car registered on 01/01/99. My main concern is that the car has been driven for the last 12 months by a 21 year old. I am not knocking the lad,(who was actually wearing the customery baseball cap!!), did on the test drive thrash it. A couple of other niggles also concern me but more instinct than anything else. We have saved many years for this motor so it is hard earned believe me. Any doubt I know I should walk. Alan. Migration info. Legacy thread was 25829

POST 4Original post

WALK AWAY Plenty more out there you have already seen the signs that the car is not for you. SEE YA Migration info. Legacy thread was 25830
