Is that pee from an old woman, or woman's pee that has been left around for a day or two to mature and gain bouquet?

You must be one of those media types that drinks their own as I have no idea what old woman's pee smells like. If it smells of brake dust, rubber, oil and petrol mixed with leather then I guess it must do.

As a pee-smelling afficionado, can you tell me what pee your Noble smells of then? Old man's pee? Baby pee? Your own pee after an unsettling on-track moment that nearly cost a lot of money? Post-asparagus pee?

I heard about a black 964RS owner who really abused his car.

Not only did he whip the a** of all and sundry on track, he never serviced it, regularly drove on nonstop 750km journeys across Europe on a single tank of petrol using a coke bottles for bladder relief, took his collection of hunting dogs to grouse shoots in Scotland and still had room for their doggie-jackets in the boot, used it to bulldoze snow from his driveway in winter and blow leaves from his lawn in autumn (such is the chuffing from the exhaust), pulled several supermodels and found room to shag them in the car without the gearstick getting in the way, once gave God Himself a lift down the M1 as God wanted to know what a real sports car felt like, worked out the Unified Theory of Everything but forgot to write it down because he was having so much fun in his RS, crossed the Sahara and drove to the Artic Circle in record time so he could smash an ice palace without denting the bodywork or ripping off bits of fibreglass, was six feet seven inches tall but still had plenty of headroom, was partially sighted but still had perfect visibility, and fully insured it on classic car insurance for only £500.

All without missing a beat and consuming precisely 3 litres of oil.

Then he sold it for more than he paid for it in the first place.

I suggest a clothes peg.

What for - to hang the car up to dry on the washing line after you've used "draino" to clear out its rear passages?

Absolutely. Most Nobles are the colour of post-beetroot-consumption pee, very disturbing if you forget what you ate the night before and think there is something seriously wrong with your equipment. As I once did, and nearly went to casualty in a panic before I had a D'oh! moment and remembered.

Sorry to be a little pedantic.....
with respect to dry sumps on all 911....
911 up to the 993 have a true dry sump system.
the 996 & (Boxster)have a semi dry sump system apparently.
The exceptions to this are the GT2,GT3 & Turbo 996 variants which are based on the block of the GT1 engine basically a 993 lump.
Obviously this lump has many years of development and the fact it had a dry sump made it suitable for the track.For the sportier RS & Turbo S air cooled cars Porsche add an additional oil cooler.
For the regular 996 semi dry sump Porsche suggest a third radiator for cooling when any tuning as in their X51 package,but this does not address the potential oil surge problem.
The fact that porsche only uses dry sumps for it's track cars hopefully has some relevance to this thread,if not sorry & I will go back to the Porker forum.
