Read evidence and context
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.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suggestion
Use her 4wd to full advantage keeping up with GT3s at the 'Ring.
Leading evidence: 'Use 4wd' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use 4wd' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

I've seen two possible C4Ss at specialists...
One is an 02/52 car, v good spec including X51 power upgrade but no PSE, 28k miles £44k. Has boxster red interior which I'm not entirely convinced by, but looks nice with the seal grey.
The other is an 04/04 car mega spec inc more or less everything except X51, but 44k miles, £43,500
On the face of it, would the higher miles of the 04 car (yes I know buy on condition) put you off? I'm drawn to it because its a newer car, but I plan to do lots of miles myself and thinking its already got a 16k mile head-start which is bad from a resale point of view...

There's a ONE OWNER 02/52 C4S at Autobahn at the moment... 56k miles, Seal Grey with black, but not much spec - £37,995
Was looking at it at lunchtime - looks in good nick and at least you'll be able to find out ALL its history!
They have no less than 5 other C4S - but all tiptronic... :roll:

Yep, I drive it like a girl.....Sabine's her name :wink:
But seriously, the X51 is a rare, rare option, I've only seen it a few times, mostly on Anniversary models. Whether or not the average person on the street could appreciate it I don't know, they probably concentrate on visible options rather than the hidden. As Ade said PSE can be retrofitted so no big deal on that one.
Mine will go up for sale as soon as I get a favourable settlement figure and have her 48k service and MoT. I have to say I'll miss her very much it's been a wonderful car, very, very hard to beat.
Oh, and she's been known to outdrag the odd GT3 on Kemmel at Spa. Use her 4wd to full advantage keeping up with GT3s at the 'Ring.
