991 British Legends Edition

[danhaywood]

Hi all, not new to Porsche as around 10 years ago I had a 997 Carrera S, but now the kids are a bit older I’ve been dying to get back into one after a number of BMWs.

I’ve just put a deposit down on a Guards Red British Legends edition, 2018, one owner from new and around 18k miles. It’s at a Porsche main dealer. I’m always excited by the limited edition cars as to me they always feel that little bit more special.

Looking for general advice on what to look for, what I should negotiate and if I’m making a good choice here.

Thanks in advance!

An excellent choice
I believe the red were LeMans legend Richard Attwood they all had a complete and comprehensive specification The finest Carrera models of that generation, so you really can’t go wrong with them

Thanks and yes very excited to get back into a Porsche. Any tips on what I should be looking out for as the car is prepped? Anything that the dealer should sort?

So last Friday was a very happy new car day! Absolutely over the moon with the car, I have never had a red car before and I love it. Goes as well as it looks.

As a kid, if it was not red, it was not a REAL sports car... Enjoy..

Brilliant! Were these Legend editions all rear wheel drive GTS versions? Any extra kit over the base GTS?
