How long have you owned the car ?
How many owners ?
Anything wrong with it ?
Why are you selling it ?

[TrevorS]

It looks as if the last MAJOR service was done at 60,000 miles. Is that right ?

[Mccooper]

The vehicle’s last major service was in July 22. It has just had a minor service completed in June 24 and the next major service is due no later than June 26. In addition I had the oil changed after 12 months ownership in July 23.

[Mccooper]

I have owned the car for 2 years and the only fault has been an air bag sensor in July 23. I have included in the documentation a condition checklist from Porsche in June 24 to indicate the condition of the vehicle. The only issue I am aware of with the car is that it will shortly need to new rear tyres. I am selling because I have purchased a 992 generation. The car has had 5 previous owners.

Hi, does the stereo connect to a mobile phone device both for music and telephone? Thanks in advance.

[Mccooper]

As far as I am aware it is not possible to play music from your mobile phone through the car hi fi.

Hi,
Could you please explain the extent of damage on passenger rear wheel arch.
Thanks.

[Mccooper]

There is no damage on the bodywork anywhere.

[Taghian3267]

Hi
On photo number 54 it shows some kind of damage or is it a bad photo.
Thanks.

I can see the area you are talking about and seems to be more the underneath of the cill than the wheel arch. It’s not visible unless you view from a very low level almost underneath. The other photos all show the wheel arch bodywork as undamaged.

[PistonHappy]

It looks like a scuff and some corrosion to me. It definitely needs to be remedied if that is the case.

[Mccooper]

The car is almost 20 years old so enivitably not perfect but remains in very good condition for its age. Porsche did not raise it as an issue in their condition report.

[TrevorS]

Is it ULEZ compliant ?

[Alexwebber]

Hi.
Has the engine been checked for bore scoring?

[Mccooper]

The car meets the ULEZ emissions standards

[Mccooper]

The car has not been checked for bore scoring. It has shown no signs of bore scoring and the engine carefully warmed up every time before use.

The area mentioned above actually seems to be the front passenger side. It is a scuff on the plastic trim below the front bumper. If you zoom into the photo, the 'corrosion' is a screw head.

[Davesash]

Correct I think Sixor8, you can see the same scuff in photo 53. It's nothing, given the age.
