Common faults - ims, rms, brittle leaking coolant tank, brakes but this is mainly due to corrosion on the rear of the discs as the cars aren't used enough, tyres can get flat spot due to the same reason as the brakes, bore scoring. radiators and condensors due to no protection behind the grills ( i fitted wire mesh) Parts range from ridiculous to reasonable, you need to shop around Drive wise they ate very planted and lovely power delivery My advice would be to spend some time on 911uk forum and get a feel for the car I have just sold my 996 after 3 and a half years, I had a coolant tank on warranty and I did the pads and discs all round in that time The pse is awesome if you can get a car with one, the Bose system is crap as is the sat nav so don't pay a premium for ether as you will rip it out The 997 is a nicer place to be and more refined but you pay for that and then comes the dilemma of .,, 997 or 996 turbo ? the boxster, cayman and 997 ( except from 07 on iirc) have the same engine, the turbo doesnt, it has the m96 block, much stronger but other problems arise, actuators, rusted turbo bolts, there are generic problems with all cars my 370 insurance was cheaper ! Hth Paul Ps unless it's a very early car you can do an amberectomy and get rid of the fried egg headlights, costs nothing to do and back to the fold with ............

Agreed, obviously being made an example of unfortunately for him

Definitely a nob at the wheel either way lol

It's all about speed ! If he had pulled out the junction faster he would of been ok As above, that is more about poor observation than speed

Calipers look unfinished without decals imo, I'm putting the akebono on mine, was tempted by brembo but they are akebono and I like the design lol

Good find

Lovely car, enjoy ! Someone has spent a lot of time and money on that, can imagine it sounds awesome

Cheers for that, I wasn't sure, love the colour, I was originally looking for a titanium but decided it was too close to my old 350 and fancied a change

Isn't an IDE to USB cable only a few quid off eBay ?

Are the wheels on because it's an early 370 or are they non gt wheels ?

From what I've read on here I would put molyslip in aswell

I did this with my 350 but linked into the interior lights You just either take a wire to the sidelights or to the sidelight fuse

Losers !! Makes me so angry

Jesus that thing is quick !! You don't need Facebook, just links to the vid, im not on Facebook either

That def isn't right, I've got the connect premium and it's one of the best oem systems I've had in any car Iirc Darren has sorted his problem, his was similar but was low volume from the rear speakers I'm sure he resolved this by going I to the secret menu and ran the diagnostics in there

Get some pics posted

Welcome, that's a long time to wait !

Isn't it just the hydraulic tappets losing oil as it has stood, then takes a few seconds on a cold start for the oil to pump to the top of the engine ?

I wouldn't like to drive a zed with lesser brakes than brembo, never felt the need for more on my 350, awesome with upgraded pads

Maxi suds II and I also use glossworkz, both chem guys Glossworkz is brilliant stuff

Welcome aboard !

Wouldn't it be better to fit hfc's on the standard system ?
