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 finally back in a 911 after a decade in the wilderness.
Sold my last 993 C2S in 2013 (for a now shockingly low £), to a very nice guy on this forum. Spent the next 10 years with nothing other than family wagons and a coupe of moderately interesting motorbikes.
Always liked the 4s the best of the 996's, and (perhaps I'm kidding myself) feels like they're getting to the point of modern classic...?
Found my ideal spec - seal grey, sports seats, PCM (I like the old tech.), sports exhaust etc - all the stuff that floats my particular boat.
It's a 1 owner car from new. Been well looked after by OPC East London. Picked it up on Saturday from a guy with a nice collection of other bits....
It's like it just came off the production line..
Am enjoying it so far. Just saying hello....
It looks a beaut' and in amazing condition considering it's been properly used. :thumbs:
ps. It's definitely a modern classic. Seal grey is the best 996 colour too.
Looks lovely, I presume you got a bit of discount based on the recent MOT, only things to check for is the two leaks, one could be the IMS so keep an eye it.
