The listed service history has invoices back to 2008, with OPC and specialist work.I bought the car from renowned Wiliams Crawford in March 2025 after their usual detailed inspection.
The bodywork remains in excellent condition overall, ceramic coated last year, the front bumper resprayed by Williams Crawford when I bought it, and the rear bumper by Dick Lovett (Porsche/Ferrari) in Swindon this year. There are a few very small stone chips on the bonnet, hard to photograph, but this has not been resprayed. The head lights were polished and lacquered by Dick Lovett this year and really freshen up the look of the car.
All the gorgeous Sport Classic wheels are in excellent condition, and shod with Michelin Pilot Sport N2 rated tyres with plenty of tread left.
Most recently, it was given a major service at Cotswold Porsche Specialists, to include plugs and brake fluid change. At the service a small oil leak was noted from a core plug, and this was replaced. Also needed was a vario cam sensor, again changed.
Other notable work in the last 3000 miles includes:
2021, 87350 miles.New front coil springs and top mounts, new starter motor
2021 87921 miles.New clutch, IMS bearing upgrade, cam tensioners, new RMS
2021 88600 miles. Renew coil packs.
2022 88651 miles. New engine mounts.
2023 89641 miles.New rear springs.
2025 90272 miles. New front discs and pads, new wheel caps.
July 2026 92409 miles. Major service, brake fluid, spark plugs
October 2026 92607 miles. Core plug repaired, Camshaft solenoid. Replace aircon filling valve, refill system.
MOT is to Feb 2027, but can be done before sale if required.
In preparation for sale, I had Cotswold Porsche Specialists complete a borescope check on 7/10/26 at 92607 miles. All cylinders look ok, report available on request for interested parties.
Finally, if you are not convinced already, it has a DSC suspension controller fitted to update the Porsche PASM system . This improves both the ride and handling by adding up to date processing power for faster response, and is a widely recommended improvement. The standard PASM module is available if required.
Overall the car is in very good condition, with a good history and well cared for. Maintenance has been done as needed with specialists, and it looks fantastic in Cobalt. It drives very well, the engine responsive and smooth.
If I’m honest, the next job would be new heater fan toggles as they show the usual wear, and the digital speedo backlight is a little dim, which again is easily replaced.
Although I am a private seller, I do like to pass on my cars in a condition that I would like to buy them. So please ask any questions.
