Have both. Then decide which to keep. It will become obvious to you based on your usage and feelings.

Finally going in to have the clutch replaced at CPS, it’s lasted 25yrs and 210k miles so not a bad effort, will be leaving the IMS in situ unless it’s looking weapy. Having some roof work done too, bit of alignment and the sensor put back in place which I buggered up when I removed the roof to replace  the drip tray.

Looking forward to a light smooth action......

Magnificent service record🙌🙌🙌

Had the roof down when my 986 seats came out. 
 

had the roof down when my 987 seats went in. 
 

disconnected battery as some soldering of the loom was required.

There goes that conversation then 

Undecided as I like the original 986/996 look and daytime running lights aren’t period correct. So I’m inclined to leave it as is. 
Sorry, busy week so quick reply 😖

Nice, what are you LED's like when on? Wired them in as DRL's?

Not connected yet. 

I put this on...

And I like it🥰

Wow, prices really have plummeted! and I am totally out of touch with the market 🙄

Very strong on mileage that one, @CliveH I suspect they’ve factored that in the pricing. Manual surely is still a widely attractive option?

150 miles of exquisite French N and D road driving today 😁

Just stay away from Spain 😬

Leant my other BoXa against it... once again, she has a garage rival😬

Hi, what width are these vs standard? The tyres must be wider also no?  Does the front have wider wheels/tyres also?
 

Berni

295 rears and 235 fronts

11j and 9 j respectively

BTW - I think the 986 looks better with the wheels’ outer edges closer the the arch.

@Christopher2110 - 👍

An opinion shared. 

and practiced (though with wider wheels instead of spacers)

Wasted some time on a little project , I sprayed the handbrake shroud so that it matched the centre console  , pleased with the way it turned out

I didnt but charlie @ hoodtech.co.uk installed me a new roof with glass window

Maybe a little more expensive than carhood warehouse , but decided to go him for 2 reasons ...

A.. He responds to messages

B. He only offers a mobile service, so no doing a 5 hour round trip and 4 hours hanging around while being installed

 

 

That looks very nice! 

The Leeds one had 99k on the clock. If the engine has had a nut and both rebuild, that’s not really relevant then I suppose. It’s effectively buying a new Old stock car. 
 

I’d not be tempted myself as for half the money you could build twice the car. But that’s if your not after something “original”, rather something “purposeful” 😈

Nor did my year 2000 986S, if you press the windows to go up while you are doing the roof it stops short but then completes when you pull the latch over but they didnt close the windows if they were down on mine

I believe in later cars had a feature where upon opening completion, you could press the micro switch and the windows would close again if they were closed when the operation began. Thought that was cool. Guess you’re describing the other side of that feature. 

Today I chopped out my knackered old ballasts

that had meant I had no fan cooling from the front and joined up the green wires so I would have full fan speed anytime just by engaging the AC snowflake button.

Finally I checked my landing “patina” 

Just trying it out now and seems the jobs a good’un! 

I’m going to sit in mine in the garage with the door closed. The battery is disconnected and a new one on standby. Maybe I’ll bring the old one in and put it on the conditioner. 
 

excuting times! 
 

Looked longingly at it holding the weather would break so I could have a little run out like yesterday...😢
