The 111 check / warranty isn't a problem as it's factored in with the price.

Suggestion
When you say passed 111 point check I assume they then took out the OPC warranty otherwise it will need to take, and pass, another one before OPC warranty can be bought.

It's a '99 UK car with 41k miles, full OPC history, pretty much spotless and passed a 111 check last year.

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.

OK - well it doesn't tick all of the boxes but it's pretty close. I've been searching for a 99-01 black 996 for a while. I'm not a fan of the aero kit (good here) and ideally wanted Litronics and Sport Classic II wheels (bad here) but it has PSE and spotless black sport seats and interior. It's a '99 UK car with 41k miles, full OPC history, pretty much spotless and passed a 111 check last year.
I'm getting a PPI anyway but just wanted to see what you guys think so I feel better or worse about buying my first Porsche depending on what you think it's worth!

Looks lovely, but be mindful that the OPC warranty can only be taken for so many years from new. Someone may want to elaborate on this.

I'm used to taking wheels off to clean them anyway, so preference would be Sport Classic 2s, Turbo and GT3 ones last. If I buy the car then I'll see how it goes - can always swap them.

I think it is nine and 125,000 miles? Either way it will get 12 months warranty and could still be renewed next year.
Quick mock-up of Sport Classic 2s:
