What's that "three months before having a guarantee" thing?
I think that if you buy a used Porsche, they won't allow you to renew the warranty (unless it's from a main dealer of course) until you've owned the car for 3 years. This is to stop non official dealers being able to offer cars with full warranty.This is what I read on here previously - cannot comment on how accurate it is.

Yes, if you want to buy a 12 or 24 month Porsche warranty to cover your used car (which you purchased elsewhere) then they won't let you sign up for three months. However, if you buy a used car from them they will include the same warranty This is what I read on here previously - cannot comment on how accurate it is.
If you do go for said used warranty then they also ask you to pay for a "111 point" inspection first and if anything needs fixing you pay for that before they switch on the warranty. And, if you've non stock exhausts, lights, etc. they take them all off (at your cost - replacement parts + labour) first to take the car back to stock standard - lots of rules them Germins!
In the end I didn't bother and all good so far!
