Looking at buying a 996 I have seen one that has had no use basically left in a garage for 5years it starts drives and now has a new MOT but the service history is lacking any information.
I know this affects price etc but wondering what I should look out for.

IMS on the 3.4
Bore scoring on the 3.6

I wouldn’t wish one on my worst enemy, but we’ll leave it there as it can cause great divide in this forum

I know you said you’d like to leave it there but would be good to hear your reasons if possible?

This would be my first Porsche so any advice opinions are worth taking on board.
