Might put a bid on this, however there is no such thing as a cheap 911 turbo
Any further info on this?

That's a very potentially worrying thing.

Hi any update on the question asked?

Dear all,

Please see image 195 referring to the invoice that answers your question. It explains that it has been signed off as operating correctly and normally.



If you have any further questions fire away. Best of luck bidding!

Warm regards,
Robert Slomczynski

That invoice also suggests the engine needs stripping and inspection as metal is in the oil filter?
Unless of course you are offering some kind of warranty/guarantee?

i see car has done 20 miles since engine investigation work & MOT carried out a month ago. When you start the car is there any smoke or untoward noises or does it now run completely normally? Thx

[MarkShaffer]

Hi, the car runs completely normally. Pulls cleanly from idle. Starts on the button. Feels like it did when I bought it back in 2017. Used to be my daily until work and family made it impractical. Also London is now a pointless place for a fast car! It has been swapped onto Ohlins which sorted out the handling and ride. The head unit runs car play and android auto. Also have a roof box if interested. If the price is too low, I will keep it for another road trip at some point!

Beautiful car. I remember seeing a brand new one and the same colour back in 2006. Amazing road presence and still has to this day.

Good luck with the sale.

Hi Mark
Has any diagnosis been offered as to why water was in the oil and concerning the metal fragments in the oil?

The notes are alluding to a couple of major concerns, have any of these been subsequently investigated? (Eg mention of sign of turbo failure)
Thanks
Sam
