An excellent choice young man :thumb:
Olive green is what we call that colour .. it almost changes colour depending on the light .. i love it .. that or Basault Black .
A few things for your to do list
Oil leak .. remove the hose from the bottom of the oil cooler and drain out the oil thats in there .. there may well be quite a bit.
It comes from the Turbo and tends to collect there.
Propshaft .. thats dam clever .. if it lasts then excellent .. if not the cost of propshafts has fallen such that a replacement center bearing is no longer cost effective .. well for garages anyways .
Get the oil and filter changed for the Tip box !!
The front arch liners at the back of the arch .. easiest with front wheels off but can be done in situe .. sooo .. the rear side of the shock and either with a mirror or a screwdriver then see if the original drain bungs are there... you peer behind the arch liner basically.
These are the same as 996/997 next to the battery.
If they are there then flick them out with a screwdriver .. i would expect by now though someone like me has already done it .
Causes no end of issues with water leaks if left in place .
There are also some bungs in the sills both sides .. remove these to make sure theres no water build up then refit .. it gives a sloshing noise if so .
Talking of which (water ).. do this for both drivers and pasenger sides .. i need you to look / feel under the front carpets .. we need to make sure its dry .. big problems if not... remove the side trims to get the carpet up .. pictures in my link.

Also make sure your rear washer jet is working .. and best if you never use it in winter .. theres a connection behind the A pillar o/s/f which can come appart (washer pipe ) and water will go straight into a Control unit .. expensive .
Theres also another connection above the rear interior light that can come disconnected .. water will drip out of that panel if so .
Get a fault code read out of dme and tip please .. let me know any codes .
Parking sensors .. usual problem is either a single sensor or the main plug that connectes the bumper wiring to the car .. for the rear then its on the n/s/r and behind the liner / pu .. you can just about get at it from under the car.
Front and i forget which side but i think its o/s/f and again behind the liner.
Basically unplug and see what condition the pins are.
Id have a good look at the fuses as well .. x2 boards and at each end of the dash.
There are more by the battery..
Aghhh .. a tip .. if you want to get at the battery .. pull the x2 plastic panels out each side of the n/s/f seat at the front.. undo the spline bolts , remove the rear plastic panels over the seat runners and the seat will tilt backwards .
I think that will do for now .. give me a shout if theres any .. er .. Info you need on these :wink:
