Yeah, my Aug '00 996 Turbo reached 140'000 km last week-end... If you're interested, the whole story is here.

That is a great article. And just so nobody will ask "What is 140000 Kilometers in miles." It is 86940 Miles.

Great story! Drive on bro!

Turbo Ron

Wonderful story. Mine is a weekend vehicle. I guess I will drive hard and keep mine for another 30 trouble free years.

It is also an average of approximately 2,225 miles per month!

Pierre,
Are you often on the Vevey-Fribourg highway? I think I have seen you regularly on that road.

I have about 42,000 miles in my 996 Turbo's in the last year - 13+ inches of snow and all - I love the car for all it's worth and drive it every single day - owning it is one thing - driving the pants off the bastard day in and day out is quite another. Play like you work not the reverse. T2

Awesome to see a guy like you drive your car like that!

Pierre

Funny, but a few days after I wrote this report, my babe started to lose oil and to make a strange noise... She's now at the shop for a service, and I hope they won't have any bad surprise...

George: yes, I quite often take this highway. Actually, I'm in Vevey and Lausanne right now. Next time you see me, gimme some light flashes!

To everybody, thanks again for the comments! I'm glad you like the report!

Ok, problem fixed. There was an oil leakage somewhere at the clutch. Sorry, don't know how that thing is called in english...
Let's go for another winter!
