Advice on first Porsche purchase

tony`mac · **Posted:** Mon Oct 20, 2008 7:41 pm

looked at a well priced 964 today. Two points that I pulled it up on were :

Quite hard to get into 1st or 2nd gear.

Rear spoiler stayed up.

Great drive, good condition, lots of history with the car.

Took it to Strasse for a check-up, they said the clutch was fine but could be a problem with the hydraulics (Hydraulic clutch ?) and the spoiler motor assembly was working but not getting a live feed properly.

Does anyone know if these problems are fixable. Strasse priced up to fix these problems and the seller has agreed to reduce the price by £700

any help on my first Porsche purchase greatly appreciated.

cheers

Tony

Hi TONY

To be honest I would get the seller to fix these problems BEFORE you buy it.....its a buyers market at the moment....

All the best Brett

3.2s Don't have electric spoilers?

It depends on price, if its cheap might be worth a go.
