Thanks for the feedback gents (I'm assuming you're all male..).

Are there any reliability differencies between the 'older' 996 motor and the testastretta? It is my prime concern. I don't mind budgetting for proper service work but I don't really want an expesnive piece of kit that falls apart even after spending hundreds/thousands on servicing.

My TLR has never seen a spanner in 22,000kms. It gets oil every 3,000 and has a set of plugs and an air filter once. It's never missed a beat and started first time even after a two year lay up - with the old fuel!

I don't want to start a Duke/Jap argument but I'm sure you'll all agree that no one wants to spend hard earnt money on dull things like repairs when we could be spending it on european trips and titanium fasteners!!

Cheers.

Paul.
