Suggestion
With the speed of ICE technology, ( A very fast moving market area over the last 24 months), I will anticipate that in 6-12 months there will be in-car wireless internet as standard and a host of connections running on a windows based system in this country.

Still seemed plenty quick though when I test drove it.

Also I don't think I could be bothere to keep slotting my SIM card in and out to use the phone.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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'm a bit surprised on the price given it has no PCM. Good amount of miles though.
The Ruf sticker on the side, may mean it has had some work done.

I was under the impression that PCM (particularly PCM I, which I think this car would have on a 51 reg) was rubbish. CDROM based rather than DVD and could no longer be updated. I am happy to purchase a Tom Tom :wink:
Also I don't think I could be bothere to keep slotting my SIM card in and out to use the phone.
Why do you say that about the RUF stickers? The chap just said he thought they might look cool, so applied them. It has no actual RUF upgrades. Although he asures me the stickers add an extra 25bhp 8)

So is it not sold?
If not, its silver (the most common TT colour), has no PCM ( PCM 1 imight not ne the best doesnt but it generally attracts a premium. (and you dont need to keep removing your sim, just use a pay as you go sim and divert and undivert your phone as necessary)
No Ruf upgrades but Ruf stickers, at least you can have them removed easily.

It is on hold for me pending the OPC Inspection.
I was just making a last ditch attempt at making sure it is not a Lemon by posting on here.
Not sure I like the way you said it is the most common TT colour

Agree - if you could get this for £44-45K it would be a good deal. The comment about the Ruf was more than it could have some of the engine upgrades - I would check this with a Porsche specialist. Maybe a good thing as Ruf can do wonders with the 996TT!

Thanks for your info guys.
I asked the guy straight away whether it had been to RUF, since that would be a bonus for me but the seller insisted it hadn't. Still seemed plenty quick though when I test drove it.
I have negotiated a price lower than £44k so lets see what the inspection holds on Thursday. Fingers crossed.

Hi,
IMHO lack of PCM 1 is a not a deal breaker for that matter nor is PCM2. No updates lack of bluetooth and iPOD with the older technology for map storage rather than hard drive or solid state.
With the speed of ICE technology, ( A very fast moving market area over the last 24 months), I will anticipate that in 6-12 months there will be in-car wireless internet as standard and a host of connections running on a windows based system in this country. This is already available in Japan.
Porsche had better look at their OEM partners and get some updated technology installed or the aftermarket volume sales will cetainly take over. So the premium it once had will no longer be justified. Human nature wanting the latest tech and all that. Just my thoughts.
Alan.
