No doubt a few will consider me mad, but does anyone know if it is possible to get hold of Porsche workshop manuals for the 993 model range? While I'm happy to go to an (independent) garage for periodic services and associated stamps for maintenance history, when components need replacing I'd rather do it myself. Always enjoyed maintaining any car that I've owned up until now, so don't see why this should change.

Out of curiosity, do any other P'Head pork lovers do substantial mechanical work on their pride and joy? Keeps me out of trouble at weekends!

Thanks for confirmation of existence - guess I should have Googled first! Some CDs on eBay that might be interesting.

Marquis Rex - I intend to buy one of these CD sets on eBay - having looked over a few sellers' records they are obviously doing copies of the CDs and flogging them very cheap. One girl sells CD TIS (Technical Info System?) for every make of car under the sun and a few bikes, so it's obviously her business. Eventually they'll get round to prosecuting her maybe as these are proprietary products I guess.

Anyway - have a look at this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=14234&item=7902478876&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW. She seems to sell 2 a day and they normally sell for between £5 and £10 - won't break the bank! If you get round to it before I do let me know what you think of the product!

Thanks for the tip-off Phelix - I will ask this question of the seller before buying then. Was a bit bemused by the choice on eBay - some are selling 5 or 6 CD sets, some 2, but they all seem to cover the same thing - will report back when I have bought a ste!
