If you are worried get a warranty off Porsche for about £800 a year.
USUALLY tough as old boots....
saying that mines split a boost hose and thrown a belt since a have had it. Mines modifed and has been given DEATH.. a mean proper proper DEATH!
Its been over 180mph I would at least 50 times I reckon! and over 190mph alot as well hahahah!
Great cars... and thats VERY cheap!!! wow!
awesome cars. I like mine alot. I don't LOVE it though... hence why I have been flying around in my Boxster all day!
My little sister has the Turbo out at the moment. She loves it. She calls it 'The monster'

well i went over there and he was shut lol car wasnt there either.. all his other stock was er not mint enough shall we say lolol i spoke to him this morning and I asked how clean it was compared to the other 53 plate 45 grand turbo i did see and he said not as clean... so im not gonna bother lol cos the 53 has enough faults for me not to buy it even if I could afford it lol
also looked at a black CSL with 19k on it @ a dealer for 38k !!!! odd tyres and had some paint was clean but not clean enough
