Hi
My wife bought an ex-demo 2.7 987 at the w/e from an OPC.
A couple of questions to the wise:
i) I have specified that the engine oil and filter be changed before delivery. Car has covered 3500 miles but I do not believe in the 20000 service interval and hold the firm belief (backed up by experience) of the effectiveness of an early oil and filter change. My dilemma is, having been bitten in the past, how do I check it has been done?? No dipstick and can't even see the engine! Not my natural position to trust the dealer.
ii) The car is described as having the factory-fit alarm system. It is a 2006 model, registered in March 06. Given that she is embarking on the rather distasteful task of sorting out her insurance can someone point me in the direction of details of the alarm system. Presumably it is Thatcham Cat 1?? (Car is additionally fitted with Porsche VTS - hoping this carries some weight with insurers, but probably not!) Will try to speak with the dealer later.
Thank you.
