what is an 'early' 3.4 996?

[jonny996]

Mine had it engine taken out & sent to hartech before I got it, so be default the manifold bolts were all changed, lucky.

Nearly 20 hours labour to change my manifolds and back boxes. All bar 1 stud snapped.

Full bill was close to £3k... inc. parts.

Yeah I've been told it can be steep. Mine are looming at some point in the next few years

Mine had manifolds/cats/backboxes and the bills in the folder were similar.

I didn't know you have one of these cars.

Ditto. I think the labour charge alone for replacing the studs was @£700.

Sorry no I don't. I work on a trust basis, the indy I use I have been using for over 16 years, so I just let him do what he thinks best.

98, C2, man, 135k, £9995.

Current owner for ten years and just spent £3.5k on it but it's a casualty of divorce.

Tempting!

Decent spec, including cruise. Not in love with the expanse of red dash but a few trim bits off eBay would break the colour up a bit.

Bit of a mix and match, you'd have to really want a yellow one.

Drop the front diff out for more gt3 repness...

[Chris Stott]

The ad reads pretty positively on the surface. A lot of the right stuff done, decent mileage and a sensible price. If I was looking for a 966 I’d definitely have a look at it.

When did the 3.4 stop having the coated pistons?

That is nice! Non sunroof C4 chassis, very nice indeed ...

Having fun on a runway.

Still looking for an aero car in an interesting colour, this one seems worth a look
