This is my mantra: You can’t take money with you and it can always be earned, but time is limited. So go on, do that project you’ve always wanted, take that road trip, go on that vacation. You have a lifetime to make those memories, may as well spend your it all making them.

5 star evo car ,please enlighten us on why its garbage?Is your corsa better then lol😂
Huh?
That fuel cost was shocking 🥲 sweet motor though
Cheers mate
Buy yourself a nice padded boiler suit.
I’m thinking of getting some stuff from Rainments
Less chit chat more grinding❤
Dont wear that jacket under the car. Brrrrr!
Ohh..😂
Great video, subscribed!
its awful in winter. Here in Sweden the car isnt just rust welded but actually frozen too :D
Good to see another video keep up the good work
👍I'd get a friendly mechanic on it 😂 do you know any ?🤷🏻♂️
i love my 986 my insurance $61 / month
With the electric switches for the trunk and frunk releases, there’s a little pole in the footwell fuse block that you connect a jumper to that powers just the release so you can open up and get to the battery. The cable backup is for if the release module, or electric release other wise fails, not for a flat battery.
forget that try to buy the cheapest 911 or cayman
That’s your dream, not mine 😂
Hey! Count me out of the obsession of Renaults! Blasphemous! Bloody French shit boxes! 😂
We both had Clios as our 1st cars… mine just was better 😂
My 1998 986 has over 120k miles and no silver in the oil filter, the original IMS bearing is fine (knock on wood). If you must, pay $2k and get it replaced along with the clutch and the rear main seal (RMS). At the price good ones go for on Bring a Trailer you can have a GREAT car with IMS replaced, glass window top, perfect interior and new tires for well well less than $15k. What kind of car can you buy ANYWHERE for $15k much less a Porsche with the quality it was grown from frigging seed that goes like stink and can go into turns way way more than your courage will EVER allow? Nowhere. If you are scared and can't live with just two seats and no glove box but two GIANT trunks, buy a 1980's technology Miata and be a drone and dream it's a Lotus Elite.
Stay away from Aston. Big money pit
I literally worked for them
it's a dice roll unless you have the LN Engineering IMS upgrade.. Base model 987.2.. No IMS and no cylinder lining.. virtually bulletproof
Glad the bloke pronounced "Porsche" correctly......
Where are you based? Just got into doing content on TikTok with my vantage, be good to do some car content together. Let me know if interested :)
Hey Mate! Zach from DL here. Think what you’re doing is awesome. Keep it up. Give me a shout if you ever need any voice work doing 😉🙏
Hey Zack, great to meet you mate! I’ll let you know when we can do some racing episodes
This seems like a fantastic idea with zero downsides - DB7 doesn't have that many videos on it as well.
Interesting choice… my 2p worth: While the Aston is definitely worthy of being a dream car for the looks and that v12, as a driver's car I think you’d get more fun out of more Boxster ownership.
I bought a 2003 2.7 boxster on August 31 of this year at 17. I worked so hard for the car but it is a blast to drive. Definitely a great move.
Well done mate! Enjoy it, they’re fantastic
Keep the Boxster and do another project
I've got a 182 and you need to be spot on with the timing that's all I'll say! good luck!!
wow what a day that must of been very jealous.
Hilarious! I loved it ❤😂😂 I honeslty thought Toby was going to stand and watch youvwash his whole car 😂😂
Brilliant video!! 👏
The figaro! Aww Henry is this an early birthday present? You shouldn’t have! 🤣
love your videos on this car, inspired me to pickup a 986 myself 🙏🏻✨ just replaced my corner lenses
saaaameee
Boxster is really super good mileage with its performance engine still. It’s a hidden gem no one knows
Hi, what kind of insurance do you have if I might ask? I’m planning on buying one next year (from the Netherlands) and just wondering
looks way better
Might just need a new battery in the key fob
180 for a new key?? Where
£180 for my key to be re-programmed
Design 911 for the blanks and Ebay.
You didn’t even get into maintenance costs. But owning a Porsche is worth it!!!
I did get into the maintenance, just what I have had todo to it over 6 months
Bro I just got a 1.2 Clio and I guess I’m taking notes.
My first car! Absolutely love them
Nice video! But you should definitely use a torque wrench for those seatbelts. Also they probably could have been saved with a proper clean and some silicone. I saved many before using that old trick
Great vid! reminds me that I still need to replace the belt tensioner, my belt doesn't run back properly
Turns out a good clean does wonders
Nice vid
Slowly getting there
Great to see the progress
Excellent video with lots of information for potential buyers. I wish I'd known this much in 2015 when I bought mine. 😅
Thank you, Fredrik. I think I ended up doing a more pre and post purchase guide with this one as well for hopefully still some useful things
Does being 19 years old make the fixes more expensive? Asking for a mate
I’d ask your mate
Enjoyed watching keep it up!
Another great Vid Cuz
Couple of things to note you can almost always sand headlights and then apply auto clear coat to permanently restore the appearance and this will work on headlights that are extremely messed up the IMS will put gold flakes into oil but it usually happens immediately before complete failure. the 2.5 2.7 3.2 don’t get bore scoring but all of the bigger displacement engines can suffer from it; bore scoring makes a distinct sound and a car can survive for a bit with it although it will suffer from reduced power oil consumption and gas mileage. all single row bearings are scary and I would stay away from them doubles are ok 1/100 is pretty rare but personally would get one that has the LN engineering ims solution (oil feed journal bearing discussed in this video) any bearing is really temporary a normal bearing is the only one that’s going to last a very long time.
That shirt's too large on you.
If that’s your only criticism, I’ll take that 😂
Thanks for mentioning me Henry I really miss my old porsche it was amazing.
