Posters here all have good points. Patience is a theme among them. Another point mentioned is expensive to run. I bought my first Porsche in my 60's. I dont sit on pins and needles and worry if the thing is going to crap out. Because mine is a 2001 Boxster base and I expect things to eventually go wrong. Pay now or pay later or pay now and pay later. To me there is no free ride. However a PPI well done is a cheap way to screen out the ones that need work. Better still is take a knowledgeable friend to screen out the bad ones first.And then get a PPI done.
Weird sellers? You are right they are out there. But they are less weird if they can provide receipts for work done.

Car searching should be fun but I do find the negotiating for $$ amount quite stressful but with a PPI in hand and it has deficiences u can handle you can get $$$ off the asking price. Cheers!
