Ok... Quick background. I've owned possibly the worst collection of cars ever. MG metro, two 2CVs (one with a £3500 Alpine system), a Skoda Favorit Estate (possibly the best of the bunch), and a Volvo S40...
Time to get a car I actually want, so I looked at some 2 seater cars. Told a friend who works in the city I was looking to spend £25k on a second hand Boxster and his business partner told me I should get a 'proper porsche' (his words, not mine) and that for that money I could have his.
Now I've never even considered a 911 before, so i don't know if this is a good deal, but I've been told I did the right thing... What do you think?
It's a 993 Carrera Cabrio (Tiptronic), registered April 1997. Silver with 39K miles on the clock. FPSH - Yes. Even when it hasn't done the required miles, it's been serviced with no expense spared. 4 new Pirrelli P-Zero tyres (less than 200 miles ago). It's not LHD. I can't find fault with it. Basically he makes a good wage and couldn't be bothered to sell it privately. He loved this car, but needs to get a Cayenne for the baby seat.
2 problems listed in separate topics (aircon doesn't cool and wheels are unfamiliar).
Can this really the bargain it seems?
