Hi guys and gals,

I just thought I would say hello. I have just bought a 2005 997 Carerra S.

It is an approved used Porsche from Porsche Portsmouth with a two year warranty.

Off on holidays soon so getting it ready for collection on my birthday on the 28th. Can't wait!!

Paul smile

It's a bit too old to be a Porsche Approved car if it's 2005. It'll be some other warranty, rather than the Porsche one.

Enjoy the car and stick up some pics, it's traditional.
Sorry yes it comes under their Signature approved scheme so still has the full dealer warranty benefits.

Will get some pics up ASAP - need to work out how to resize as they are apparently too large

Nice car - I ummed and ahhed over that one (it was a good price) but the lack of a 2-year warranty was the decider for me. I'm sure it's a good car though - hope you have lots of fun in it.
Thanks very much. Managed to get a two year warranty out of them so very happy indeed.

I kinow I shouldn't ask but Was it a Porsche or dealership warranty?
That's fine, it's Inschape through Porsche Signature. Gives basically the same cover with everything except the usual wear and tear covered, with claim limit to the entire purchase price of the car.

Congrats fella - lovely car, not too different to mine biggrin

Warranty sounds good.

They are a nice team at Portsmouth Porsche - I've been down there for a few events.

I'm only in Waterlooville, I may see you about as 911's seem quite rare wavey
Thanks mate, will keep my eyes peeled! smile
