Hi all

I've had the car since Oct. last year so I thought I should share some details. Details are:

MY 2000, 996.1, C4 in Arctic Silver Metallic, six-speed, 86,000 miles, sports seats with metropole blue leather, upgraded hi-fi, OBC, headlight cleaning, 3-spoke wheel.

Car is in great condition overall and has been cherished by former owners (x 5). I have every MOT and lots of invoices for all manner of things including a new clutch at 73,000 miles. Additionally a lot of handbooks, brochures and a Porsche GB Cert. of Authenticity with original spec.

Since purchase upgrades have included the current 18" wheels (formerly 18" TechArts and soon to be sold), new battery, new radiators and ZunSport grilles. Others on the list are low-temp thermostat, K&N induction kit, 997 short-shift kit and some non-mechanical mods like alloy pedals.

Views welcome on fitting RSS engine mounts and the RSS under-drive pulley and the value-add. I have also toyed with getting the gundo hack done but I am undecided. I was thinking of H&R lowering springs (-25mm) but again I am undecided.

Inspection from Steve @ Jaz revealed it needs coffin arms, anti-roll bar rubbers and some other small bits and pieces e.g. air-con pipe clip which is being done in early Aug.

I used to drive a Boxster 3.2S but always wanted a 911. Now I have one and sadly I don't drive as much as I would like to.
