Service

Oil, Yep thats Porsche service for you, however I'm sure that rather thanthe trade Costco Halfords would work out 'similar' in cost. As far as service goes, its supposed to be fixed price unless you can get a good releationship/deal with your service assistant- which I'm pleased to say I do [:)] 20k already Chris!! [;)] garyw
 
I can't be of much help on the differing oil prices, but just pleased to see that like myself you like actually driving your Porsche. I've done about 12k in 10 months in my own. Am I bothered it'll affect residuals? What, and to have missed all that glorious driving - not a chance in the world!
 
Ask the OPC if you can supply your own oil. Some will let you if its in sealed containers.
 
I needed a quick top up and bought a litre of Mobile1 from Halfords the other day. £16 as opposed to Costo £30 for 5 litres. Most OPC's will let you use your own oil.

I am with Gary on this - as some of you know I've done an average of 50k miles in each of my 3 previous Porsche's. The current one is up from purchase mileage of 1760 to approx 9k miles already They are there to be driven not just looked at.
 
Get them driven! Since getting mine from on OPC in March I have clocked 7000 glorious miles and us it every day. I kept my 996 as a low mileage garage queen for years and go no more for it than if it had double the mileage. To hell with residuals - use them and enjoy.
