I have come across a very nice 996 in my local area. I have done a great deal of reading on the subject but wondered if someone in club could offer some sage words of advice. I think I have done appropriate due diligence but could someone give me a view and some advice on the cars value?

- I have spoken to Autofarm and they confirm that on the last service there were no advisory items of works required.
NEGATIVES
- Rear tyres are getting low. Legal, but not for long.
- Radio screen is almost unreadable due to pixel failure.
- AC screen is 'bleeding' LCD leak behind the glass?
- AC compressor cuts in when the button is pressed but it is not bowing cold (front AC rads look undamaged and clean with no misting of oil) Present owner does not use AC due to a medical condition so the system hasn't been used in 4 years.
- Car has (I think) a performance exhaust that looks akin to a large intestine! However, there are no obvious leaks and none seen at the service, it is, however, loud (ish)
