Hartech carry used cranks so if you go with them for a rebuild, you won't be paying £5k (+VAT) for a new crank.
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.

Absolutely gutted, engine failure, garage reckons a failed out pump starved the engine, not so sure?
Crank is destroyed, all pistons and sleeves will need to be replaced.
Looking at options, sell as it (engine is out the car and dismantled) the car is a good spec woth xenons, pccm+ ,xag aero, white dials, bose.
A rebuild is currently out of budget (due to a crank alone being 5k)

Saw and commented on your post of FB but I'll say same again here. Hartech carry used cranks so if you go with them for a rebuild, you won't be paying £5k (+VAT) for a new crank. Obviously there will be some cost to it but not that.
And once they strip it, there might be many parts that are recoverable.....but who knows.
Sorry to hear this.
Trying to sell it and expecting someone else to do the repairs will leave you wide open to not getting a decent price for it. Unfortunately your options aren’t great and a rebuild or replacement motor might be the best option. Hope you can get it sorted one way or another
I followed your posts on the facebook groups, as i was thinking of selling my car earlier this year and research what price cars were being bought at, and i’m not surprised the engine has finally failed, it’s been making some warning noises for quite a while
I would try and detatch all emotions and just get rid, old porsche ownership isn’t for everyone.
