What car is it?

I have never done a bore inspection on on any car before I bought it, probably should have on my 955s…

These are getting a really good ( bad) reputation for bore scoring.

3.4 engines in the "S"
There are now getting to be cheaper ways to fix them.
Still involves a tear dwn and cylinder liner replacement.
At least L&N is not the only store in twn any more.

The car is still up for sale !
He has never contacted me again,
I would have t say there must be a hidden problem that he does not want exposed.

Fellow enthusiasts,

I offer professional Pre-Purchase Inspections on Long Island for those looking to purchase with confidence. As both a car collector and PPI specialist with years of experience, I bring a meticulous eye to every inspection.

My expertise spans both American and European marques - from vintage British classics like MGs and Bentleys to collectible Porsches including 356s and the latest 911 GT3 Carreras.

I understand what collectors and enthusiasts look for because I'm one myself. My thorough inspections help you avoid costly surprises and make informed purchasing decisions.

Feel free to visit my website for more details or contact me directly to discuss your specific needs.

Happy motoring!
