Just having my usual browse though the forum and noticed I bought my 996 yesterday.....12 years ago. Where the hell did that go? Still not had it flat out but been close a couple of times. What a journey. What a car. Still love it more than the day I bought it and can safely say - it's a keeper. Now on 179k, which means I am now well into the mileage majority holder at 93k miles 1st post:

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.

'grats on the milestone Alex.
12 years quite a milestone thanks for sharing the journey
indeed, congrats Alex...... i wonder how many on here have ever driven their cars flat out..... i've not and can't ever see a road worthy and pothole free to do 175mph on.............!!!
You’ve obviously learned a hell of a lot about it in 12 years. Thanks for sharing some of that wisdom. Here’s to the next 12 years
congrats Alex these are wonderful cars that can do everything from Back road blaster/long distance tourer and classy quality item outside your residence
Well done, these cars do get under your skin, quite literally when your working on them as I’m doing now Your following strongly behind me on the mileage, mines at 203k but my ownership is only 6yrs on this particular car, so well behind you on ownership.
Congrats - and what a bargain as well for £10k 12 years ago - i paid £9k for mine last year on 145k so you've not lost any money at all!
Great to see you are still loving it Alex
Congratulations Alex. I'll be posting something similar tomorrow as I will have had my car for 11 years or I might leave it a few days and post something when the odometer clicks over 100k. Knowing me, I'll probably do both.
Congrat's Alex , it's certainly become a very good friend over the years i hope it continues for many more. well done to the both of you.
That's wild value for money for 12 years of motoring.
Very committed relationship
That means my porschaversary is imminent. You never forget your first
Today is the day....12 years for me as well
