So when requesting PPI's at the point of taking out the loan, there is paperwork that needs a autograph at the end? I'm pretty sure that said paper work is going to include something about PPI's is it not? How is PPI meant to be sold? Put it on a market stool with a wheel for fortune wheel being spun by a midget clown? If the above is true, then im understanding the whole PPI claim back as money for old rope, a bit like claiming for whiplash? I hope I'm wrong and I'm sure there are some genuine claims to be had but with the birth of these PPI claim back companies and other means its all kind of blown out of proportion.

Oh, and check the service intervals. Major services on the Turbo's are every 24K (don't know about the others but suspect they are similar) - These are costly.

PS - Facelift in 02. Minor changes, mainly headlights (non fried egg) and glovebox. The Turbo stared in 2001 and the facelifts were based on the turbo. The Turbo was also facelifted in 2002 which included some of the other lifts such as the glove box. The fried Eggs can be easily modded if you go for a pre facelift.

Sorry, poverty should have been in in inverted comma's I dont know what you are talking about http://www.wardrobecostume.co.uk/admin/uploads/300/2054_22413_-_Chest_Wig_300.jpg

I must admit, he didn't fit the stereotype that I was thinking!

Ok, the most important thing with these is a Pre Purchase Inspection. Ideally with an independent garage, followed by Porsche themselves. £200 - £250 is the going rate and will give you a very good idea of what you are buying. A C4S is a bit of a bargain in today's market, a 911 with pretty good performance with far better looks than the poverty spec ones. Deprecation is no longer too much of an issue with them any more. Budget 2k a year for maintenance. Look at lots. Then go and look at lots more. They should be in very good condition, however some peoples "mint" is different from another's. The trick is to get a mechanically sound one along with the interior you want. They will have all had some kind of paint somewhere along the line. Expect a fair few owners, they change hands around every two years. The Tips are not bad although the ones I drove were Turbo models and have a different box. Try both transmissions. The NA's do suffer from major problems, failure rate is around 5%. Try to get one with the spec you want - Retro fitting and parts a very expensive. This will massively limit your choices by the time you come up with a shopping list. If it falls in the desirable category (Black with Black interior) you may have to stump up a few more dollars. FSH is a must. It doesn't have to be Porsche all the way, a specialist is fine just make sure its not some back street garage as to work on them requires a lot of knowledge. My advise would be to find a couple of locals and take them for a drive, you hate it. Whilst it has the mod cons its very much so a raw car under it all. To an extent, they rattle, are noisy and you feel every bump in the road. Once you have driven a couple then start to look as as many as possible, even ones over and under budget. It will give you a really good idea as to the variety of condition out there and will give you a good indication as to what you should be spending rather than what you want to spend. Pick a lemon and you could end up with a 5k bill straight out of the box. The PPI is a must. Contact a local specialist if you are serious about the car and take it to them with the buyer. Research the PPI place on the forums too. That should get you started.

Well Done buddy

Lovely Full details of the spoiler please! I'm guessing it bolts onto the top of the hydraulic rams? Where did you get it and how much? Ta!

Great color match!

Looks like a 996 (911) under there and judging by the front bumper and lights, that's possibly a Turbo. They guy has abandoned the car, rather than just parking like a c*ck, as anything is going to be a nightmare driving in that. Not only would I be livid, there would be some legal action. The CO-OP are going to have a nasty bill at then end of it.

Me and the missus looked into this a few years back purely as another business venture. We ended up deciding there wasn't really much money in to to make it worth while. Good luck with it all, I must admit, I kind of felt like it would have been fun

Nice one

Im fairly sure I have a part 2 somewhere. I *think* its at the office, will have a look tomorrow

Filter is a fake too. Damn good one mind! http://www.zerotohundred.com/newforums/engine-and-performance/349923-beware-of-fake-apexi-power-intake-dual-funnel-filter-in-the-market.html

The BOV is fake:http://www.hksusa.com/info/?id=3646

I didnt think the "heads" were much more than that anyway? The Expense comes when adding a hard pipe. Certainly 'looks' real, same with the HKS one in the shop. The BOV, oil caps and turbo timers are faaaaar too cheap though! Feedbacdk is good until I read this; Not apexi genuine filter, money refunded, thanks!

Cheers, its going in the post tomorrow

Might be worth dropping the original thread members a PM..... http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?261332-East-Anglia-supra-owners

An i7 is better than an i5 and is beneficial for design and editing work. Its about a 3rd difference in price (2nd gen (i52500K & i7 2600K))which is relatively comparable when it comes to the performance. An i5 will be OK, just remember, the faster, the better applies. You wont want 6GB of RAM - its attributed to old chipsets. Multiples of 2 needed (2,4,8,16 etc). Again, more ram the better however there will be little difference between 8GB and 16GB. Its not about how much VRAM the graphics card has. They all mostly have 1Gb from a £30 card to a £250 card. Its all about what model it is. Design packages are staring to make use of the graphics card, not much but it will be more beneficial as time goes on. If you have the room for a desktop and don't need the system to be portable than get a desktop. Cheaper, easier to fix and upgrade and they go wrong less. For what you want, a custom built computer will offer you the best value for money.

Few more bits and pictures added. I would love to have the time to send stuff out overseas, but I don't so for the time being I cannot offer overseas sales.

No go, its full London Motor Museum? - Not that I know of........*goes to look at the details*

Give me half hour. I cant have you shacking up with that dodgy Watford lot although it would be funny I have access to the DSI Box most games....

Good Price
