Jesus....how close were you to purchasing?
 
Nowhere near. Just showed an interest in the car. Thankfully a friend and member had been a previous owner and did the right thing.

Internal wear - and its a "crude" average.

High performance engine is not going to give anyone 200k miles before something gives.

Gen 2 engines are starting to report those numbers, but most of the high milers are 100-150k miles

Does that seem that no 997's are no good above 150000 miles regards to any problem related issues that can occur?

I think I'll just give them a call on Tuesday to make them aware and see what their view is on this , but I can't say I'm particularly impressed ...certainly not from a main dealer

Didn't realise it was back on sale? What did they say? Shows it was MOT'd on 21st May but not taxed yet.
