cambsnw8 Posted May 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 So have had the car in at work all week, working on it after work and also managed to give it a quick once over this afternoon. Its a really nice tidy little car. Interior is excellent and the climate buttons are the best condition out of all the cars I've had. The Pioneer is actually great. The car came with the OEM CDR24 and initially I thought I'd switch back, but the pioneer is just so useable and it doesn't look too bad, so it will be staying for now. So far I've done: Full service - oil / oil filter / air filter / pollen filter / gearbox oil / drive belt. (brake fluid was done last year along with all new discs and pads all round) 6 coil packs AC condenser and re gas IMS checked and its the internal one RMS checked and dry as a bone Hood strap repaired (was poking out the side of the trim when closed occasionally.) A good in and out wash and clean Not a bad purchase for a spur of the moment thing. Still need to give it a proper polish and get the wheels refurbished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha not rude at all. I put in a cheeky offer of £9500 and he accepted based on me collecting it the next day. If you don't ask, you don't get and yes it might have been a dog, but luckily it's not. I was bored and frustrated in not finding a 981S so it seemed a no brainer. On 5/23/2019 at 1:46 PM, CliveH said: Nice! Looks very tidy. Great accident It is very very tidy. A lucky find for sure.

I still want a 981S but cannot find the right spec so I've got a bit bored of looking now. Things don't seem to be selling quickly and I've grown tired of refreshing Autotrader / Pistonheads every day and seeing the same cars. So I'm also looking at some 987.2S now as well, trouble is they are all low spec and I will still have the same fitment issues being 6'4" But I've not had a gen2 yet so just fancy something a bit different. Once I've had a car for a month and made it perfect I tend to get a bit bored and want to move onto the next project So I'll advertise it soon and just use it till it sells. It won't be cheap though I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark I thought the Gen1 and Gen2 were exactly the same inside. I fit... but I'd prefer my seat 1-2 notches further back. In a 981 I can get the seat so far back that it then feels like I need to come forwards a notch or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
