One of my most popular video uploads of all time is my Porsche 996 buyer's guide from around five years ago.

However, now the Porsche 996 is 25 years old, the march of time means new issues and problems are being uncovered by specialists that you should know about – that's why this is THE MOST RELEVANT AND UP TO DATE Porsche 996 buyer's guide on the internet.

Remember, most cars of a similar vintage were scrapped years ago, so it's something of a miracle that so many examples still remain on the road today. The payoff to that however is that the list of things to look for when buying a 996 is long and exhaustive, and it is my mission to ensure you are well informed to buy the very best example you can find.

It's also worth pointing out the advice given here is relevant to the 986 and 987.1 Boxster, as well as the 997.1 911.

What do you think? Are there any other tips from your own experiences that you'd like to pass on to those on the hunt for a 996? Post them in the comments below.
