996 C4S 3.6 manual. 03 reg, 124,000 miles. Mine since early 2015. Original IMS as far as I know. Slight RMS misting.

Bit smoky on start up, but no untoward knocks or taps, oil consumption around 250ml every 1000 miles.

Am mentally amortising for some attention as and when it needs it, which would be fair enough as its a high performance engine and its done a lot of miles now.
