With a 996 Turbo of that vintage they need servicing every 12K with a major every 24K which aint cheap esp when the engine has to come out just to change the plugs. A friend has a 996 Turbo thats running at 525 hp but its had K`s spent to get it reliably to that figure.
Ive slackened off the miles now mate, well try to.. still prob do alot more than average tho. Try get the miswah to drive about a bit more now

But your right, that many miles on a 996 turbo would be too much!!

I just enjo driving too much lol
