Now I know this is a bit of an odd one but I’m wondering if anyone recognises one of my old cars from the pictures and description. From the outset I do not know the original registration number the plate displayed is mine I have a hankering to get it back … I know I know 🙄 Anyway it was bought in 2004 from Porsche Reading having been reshelled due to damage when being delivered by transporter when new, I had it inspected and with a price adjustment I bought it. She was a 996 Carrera 2 in Artic Silver with Metropole blue interior and a manual gearbox. What made it different was from the factory it had the 20mm lowering option gt3 short shift the rear spoiler and the engine power kit, an expensive option at that time any help would be appreciated.

Coverage and how to read this overview
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.
