On 24/ 10/ 2024 - a number of advisories were attended to in lieu of a minor service as only 800 miles covered in the year. These were:
NS cooling fan resistor
Auxillary drive belt

CV joint clips.

Front top mounts, bearings and bump stops
Brake fluid
IMS (upgraded EPS unit) and RMS

Front bumper repaint.
Arguably one of the last truly 'analogue' 911s with rear wheel drive, a throttle cable and limited driver aids.
A low mileage cherished 996, in a stand out colour, with a great soundtrack.
