I’m writing some buyers’ guides for GT Porsche magazine and we need some Porsche 996s for the photoshoot.

Basically, we need every main variant of 996 which means the following cars:
3.4-litre Carrera/4
3.6-litre Carrera/4
Carrera 4S
The above need to be a mix of coupes, Targas and Cabriolets

GT3 Mk1
GT3 MkII
GT3 RS
GT2
Turbo
Turbo S

Ideally, the Turbos need to be in coupe and Cabriolet form.

The shoot will take place at the Chobham circuit in Surrey sometime in October (the date will be finalised soon). You need to be relatively local to the location for obvious reasons but the magazine will pay modest fuel costs (and feed you a sandwich for lunch!).

If you have a Porsche 996 and would like to be involved – these shoots are always fun and a good opportunity to meet fellow owners as well as the magazine staff – do please get in touch.

Thanks guys, stupid browsers... I've added the URL without the wwws so it can be seen as text.

There is a link on there to contact Phil if anyone is interested. Not that I qualify, but imagine it'll be fun!

Assume the mag wants clean cars lol. Mine with kerbed rims (not by me)and the odd paint scratch and 118k on it won't be wanted lol

Excellent chaps.

I may have misunderstood the link problem - please ignore the link in the text and use the mail icon to the top right, next to the Twitter birdie.

As for condition... "They need to be tidy and original."

[David Hype]

I have a (MY04) 996 GT3 Mk2 in Speed Yellow, the car is on 17K miles and has various OE wheels including sets in silver or black.

I have also the Standard (SY) rear wing and front splitter or the option of Carbon rear wing with Cup front splitter.

If you are interested PM me...

^^ similar thinking. i offered the same concept :-)

Original or Motorsport look
Original alloys, silver BBS, or gold BBS

May be the article needs a tag line like 'our kind of meets'

Hi

We now have a date for this - 3rd October at Chobham.

We have some cars promised but are still looking for others.

Cheers

Phil

Unfortunately, I won't be available for this date.

Paul (996 turbo coupe).

[lotus211]

I never knew this was the proposed date either....

[edc]

Don't know if this helps but 2 days later there will be 16+ Porsche and a fair few 996 at the rolling road day round the corner ...

[petop]

As im in Afghanistan the missus said she would take our 996 C4S down but as its the 3rd, she is at work.

Thanks for all the replies. We are still looking for a Turbo and a Turbo S (one of which ideally would be a Cabriolet), and a Carrera 4S.

Please email me if you can help [e-mail]
