And this is why I would buy a 911 sight unseen from Friends Green Porsche. That’s truly saying something!

[@joe_seppi]

Me too!

[@garyw1971]

Same 👍

[@1968spikey]

I've been fancying a 3.4 Cayman S for a while once my mortgage ends, and I think when the time comes I'll just call these guys and ask them to source me one. Great video I am so impressed by their professionalism and thoroughness.

[@alainlavoie2795]

Great video! Just bought a 911 997.2, currently in pre-purchase inspection, very helpful. Thank you!

[@tomursomanno8436]

[@nishisolanki5944]

My car is running great after the work you did on it mate, thanks to Olly and yourself for looking after it! Great video Luke, increase the frequency! 😉

[@boblierle4950]

Great channel. Well done. More 997.2, though. Much. Much. More. Thanks.

[@DonBMW]

Wow. Inspection and maintenance at a whole new level! I have a 90’s Honda named Rihanna cause i beat err and never do any maintenance. $1,500 USD and running strong at 200K miles.

[@marklawrence6433]

Brilliant video, a lesson for all car dealers regarding transparency. When I sell my D3 biturbo, you will be my first port of call !

[@asifhirji226]

Great content, you guys have such pride in your work, amazing to see.

[@713vinh]

What a beautiful car that is. You guys did a great job on it, now the next owner can enjoy it for many years to come.

[@the1beard]

Love these gen2 997 cars 👌 The last of the collectable 911s

[@mattburford2035]

Yes more vids please, thoroughly enjoyable work you guys do on amazing cars 👍

[@3pedali911]

Amazing! Would be nice if the dealers flipping 911's here in the US would do the same vs just detail and retail. Unless it's a CPO the dealers leave it up to the buyer to get the PPI done all while wasting time on both ends for the buyer and dealer. Take it in, go through it, price it accordingly and give the next owner peace of mind they don't need to be concerned with "what does it need" in those first few hundred smile filled miles. Well done guys! Liked and subscribed 😉

[@jasontillett8564]

Fantastic information again.Just shows the quality of work you and your team put into your cars before putting them up for sale.Will definitely be coming to see you when upgrading my cayman 987 to a 997.

[@91LX50Mike]

Your shop does some nice work…👊

[@stefanolo2]

Very interesting and informative! Thanks! I liked and subscribed 😃

[@paulfaircloth2449]

Great informative video, great to see what’s involved with those heat shields and a/c system.

[@parvinkukar1259]

Good vid as some of issues were the same on my cayman and you completed. Gives me peace of mind. Car running well. Now in the future I can look out for these things in my car, especially leaves by condenser

[@ThanaKrishnan]

loving the content... looking to get myself a 997.2

[@davedovala2700]

Great job. A very challenging amount of corrosion under these cars.

[@clive4834]

Great work guys.

[@MaxInLasVegas]

Love your Channel is this your business how did you start it? I am inspired.

[@gopherbar]

Very nice work

[@Sentosaman]

Great information and helps me on my 997.2 C2S

[@jasonwolfe7102]

Nice video, thanks!! What about doing a cylinder compression test? Back in the day we all did this on our vehicles.

[@themadhatter444]

I live for these videos. The more the merrier!

[@Human2Ai2030]

I enjoy your content and like how transparent you are . May I ask around 14.08 was you pointing to a hole in the rear silencer ;) Or what looked like a hole :)

[@baianojack]

Where do you find that tool you used to check the rotar thickness? I’ve been looking for a tool like that so I don’t have to pull the wheels to check.

[@aboyandhisdog]

Luke, on exhaust components I see you use stainless fasteners. Would you also recommend using a high temp anti-sieze on the threads?

[@paulward303]

Great video again liked the white 997 , all work seems straight forward , do you get tricky eml’s (engine management lights) on dash that you may have to send to a dealer to sort !!! Thanks

[@dkkatwa]

Amazing work you do before selling your cars. Top effort. Will look at a 911 sometime in June or July.

[@chrisboot5241]

Great very informative video. I would love to by a car through you guys, it would be a highly reassuring experience

[@cornishrider]

Hmmm until recently £20k = lovely 996, now prices are on the rise they are heading into early 997 (£20-30k) so the question is do you go for the newest looking or purest driving experience! What a decision. That said stunning looking Blue 996 with lattice alloys in the background....Think I'd still go 996 for the pure involvement. Mind you I've only driven 912, 911 3.2 and 993. For a daily driver in that budget who do others think?

[@wernerdanler2742]

No need for me to add to the pile of people wanting to know why so few videos lately. Lol I do like the care you take of your cars Luke. With that list of repairs I'm sure you keep Ollie quite busy. You should sometime gives us his CV just to give us an idea of his prior automotive experience. I'm sure he is quite competent. The BMW 530i I had, had rotors that came at minimum spec when new, for unsprung weight saving. I'm surprised Porsche doesn't do that. I really prefer these videos showing the actual work being done than those 2 to 3 minute walk around ones.

[@scotdoc]

Did you put exhaust manifold blots in dry or lubricate them?

[@hansschweikert9153]

How many miles were on this white 997.2?

[@aligwrx]

Any chance you’d share your check list ? I know it’s a little cheeky but will save me pausing the vid and copying it out 😬 and I’d come to view your stock if you had more convertibles so will try to check other people’s offerings to your standards 😊

[@wsfwsf1497]

No synopsis on the most important aspect---the test drive?

[@louissendel]

Idk if i missed it but at @14.08 is that a hole in the back box?

[@antonfaulkes7138]

Yes I spotted this too and wondered why it wasn't mentioned after all the other great work. It was a big hole too...

[@josephlanfranchi1375]

can i get a copy of the check list

[@nulleinsd7438]

Thx 👍🏻

[@sambaresi67]

so damn informative.

[@nickk1658]

Is that a hole in the exhaust at 14:05?

[@nickk1658]

Further to my question, I see that some of these centre silencers are designed with holes in them. Can anyone explain why?

[@vincentbarnes7839]

No lagoon green cars ,not popular colour

[@michaelrobinson5592]

Very nice job 👍
