Looks nice . Pampered but brakes etc just replaced. Should they not last longer on a pampered car?

How do you know its been pampered?

I would have thought discs and pads would have lasted lot longer also with them miles unless got changed from ceramics or something? All be it the car looks nice though,
Perhaps it's been used hard but that's what it was built for
!

looks a belter to me.. 15k brakes is about spot on.

One owner car in comfort needing full brake replacement in 13k miles seems odd to me.
I speak from personal experience where mine is on more miles but still doesnt need this.

Maybe I'm lucky or would just feel more comfortable buying this car from JZM

a bit ridiculous, really nice looking low mile car but because it has new brakes it must be the devils car...?

Low miles and stood still, rusty discs, replaced. If JZM had it and replaced the brakes that would be OK?

I wouldn't read too much into the brakes being replaced, could easily be due to corrosion on a low miles car.

How many times does the phrase 'buy on condition' have to be repeated?.

Everything else is just bull.

No no not at all. It's a comparison versus my own car and what I know to be fact so merely a question as to why the whole braking system has been replaced.
The reference to JZM is only because they know so Many of these cars and their history.
JZM very good source for these cars

My owned from new, 2007 with 7k miles had disks and pads changes, due to rusted discs.
OPC insisted due to annual warranty renewal
Wasn't due to "hard" use-quite the opposite-not used at all !

What has that to do with warranty, given that brakes are not covered anyway?

(more of a dig at Porsche, not you)
