I could actually smell the exhaust! Nice vid!
That’s awsome
That’s awsome
Weird though it sounds, that's now a "modified" GT3; don't forget to inform the insurance company.
the porsche 997 was a sportscar, while the 991 became a limousine.
1:49 If you watch carefully see the faces of the cars are like: 991: 😮 (Surprised), 997: 😅 (Laughing)
Great video! I learned alot about the 991.1 even after watching dozens of 991 videos over the past few weeks. Well done!
I would take either. Zenith blue is an amazing colour not often seen in my neck of the woods. Enjoyed the video.
Loving the videos, when you guys do suspension do you like to replace the full rear upper shock mount? the ones that are really expensive ?
Just found your channel. Right up my street. Subscribed and looking forward to checking this all out! Cheers
Coming from Ireland myself, England is a car lover's dream because there are shops like this all over the country. Really great, highly specialised mechanics who can fix up these older cars so they're like new.
It makes me frustated that Porsche choose to not have wireless carplay and that the usb is in the front of the unit and no USB out the back. Had bought it right away if it had those features
I've driven 996 C2/C4, 997. 1 C2, and 992 C4S and the truth is that ALL 3 of the older ones were more engaging and exploitable on public roads. Steering feedback and sound of the 997 was my favorite. Of course the 992 was faster, but believe it or not... Fast can get a little old. Don't believe me? Just ask anyone with a Superbike.
Absolutely great work - well done!
Wow! I’ve been watching your videos for years. Not in any particular order. In fact one last night was when you first switched over from outsourcing maintenance to having a 2 post lift fitted. Now you’ve got four 😊
This was on eBay not long after it was sold by FGP. The advert was absolutely lousy with poor pictures. The owner didn't care and it went for just over £18k. I missed it by about £5. Gutted isn't the word!! Absolutely stunning.
What beauty 😍
where i can find the radio ???? regards
The 997 was designed as a convertible to provide maximum rigidity with the roof down. The roof was added afterwards for marginally more rigidity. You would not notice the difference unless you are tracking it.
Manual all day everyday for the rest of the days.
I had that split washer pipe on my 981 Cayman - took it to porsche to fix under warranty and they just put some tape on it!
Great video. But the BGM is very wrong
If you like your 996’s ruclips.net/video/MgLGGZpvcyY/видео.htmlsi=q3FQMfm6SOh3cdMh
Yeah brub, you're such a legend RUclipsr rite mate 😢
Hello, do you repair customer cars too? Sorry I haven't done research on you guys but just watched a video and the work you do is absolutely brilliant. I have 987.1 3.4S and it is due for major service in 2 months time and a week ago it started showing me the Tiptronic Emergency Run message after it came out of hibernation. I'm based near Southampton
Ollie makes it look easy - but he's probably done 100 IMS bearings. 😁
I'm delighted to see your business and channel go from strength to strength, well done guys you deserve it!
So very true! I remember when the work area only had one lift. Luke and Ollie have the formula worked out: hard work + knowledge + honesty + value = success.
Atlas Grey is is such a beautiful color. For the most part it’s a bluish grey but sometimes it looks black. It’s a color you just have to see in person.
New workshop looks great. Think you should give Hector a job at FGP guarantee this video will get the most likes 👍
Silly question but does PCCM installed in one country work in another?
I think so, but you’d need to change the tiny memory card in the front to suit the country.
Nice one guys. Good video but the dogs stole the show I'm afraid 😃
This is my 996. As Luke said, there was nothing wrong with the tyres fitted, as it’s been stored away from the sun, but they were a dozen years old. I doubt I’ll use up a set of tyres anytime soon & so invested in new ones. Also, if I was to sell it in a few years, a next owner might understandably baulk. The car wasn’t cheap, but in all respects, it looks, smells and drives like a year-old 996. The 40th anniversary edition cars have that gorgeous GT silver paint, a more powerful motor and it now has a very good spec.
Nice car. I'd have changed the wheels as well as new tyres.
@@John_Wood_My wife doesn’t like the wheels either. Me, I like them. What type of wheels would you prefer if you were choosing? I’m not closed to the idea.
@@GT380man It's the polished chrome like finish - are they stock? I'd probably have them powder coated.
@@John_Wood_they are the factory 40j finish. I think they look good on GT silver.
@@John_Wood_Apparently they’re a special finish, shot blasted and polished. I don’t think there’s a clearcoat. Just been out for a lovely sunny afternoon drive in the Kentish countryside. It sounds wonderful and everything is spot on.
You all consistently have the *best* 996/997 content out there. Thanks for keeping it up. Would love someday to see an episode where you showcase the cars that you personally own and drive. I'm imagining that Ollie keeps an old Hilux around that he never has to lay a glove on...
911 vs cayman it’s not even a comparison unless your old and desire comfort.
Workshop floors looks good, anti slip resin? You’ve come along way in a short space of time . Good that you keep investing in your business .
My vizsla loves to help me in the garage also, they must love the 996.
That’s a real head turner of a car. Needs no enhancement. Not my preferred wheels though others will love them.
£40k…..
Perfect spec 👌
Very pretty car. I still prefer my 966. But i did have targas on my list if there’d been one I fancied.
How does it handle and feel compared to the C2 hard top? Do you notice the additional weight up top of the glass roof at all?
If this had been a manual, I'd have been interested in buying it. Beautiful car.
Would have been good to see the roof working. Nice car
Its just a big sunroof on this model
spec of this one is sweet and it's low mileage. I like the black radio + climate control surrounds, rear wiper delete, no sunroof, hard back seats... I could go on!
This very car was reviewed by JayEmm On Cars. Very positively, with one exception, the MO30 suspension, JayEmm found too stiff for use anywhere other than very smooth roads.
Four years later, last week I collected my first 911 from Luke at FGP. What a car, superb business. 996 40th Anniversary Edition now in my garage.
The door handles look like they’re modelled on something living.
Changeover valves and dynamic engine mounts are a very common failure point in 991.1’s. Also the air oil separator.
I just bought an 01 C2 factory Aerokit, with 18in twists.
