We seem to have had a recent influx of 'S' owners, considering the number manufactured it seems a little odd.

Makes a change from all those boring Turbo's :D

About 3 years ago there were lots breaking on fleabay, and the Porsche breakers seemed to have an influx of cars to break as well, perhaps its a cycle, as albermoose said perhaps its belts time

Maybe it's taken time for people to realize that the model everybody says to avoid isn't that different from the one that everybody says you should buy! :)

That one's been on ebay since I got the car, tempted by it but thankfully it doesn't seem to be going anywhere so it can wait for my lux to be finished.
