I used to have a Z3m in that interior colour combo, loved it.......its not as cool as blue / black though :)

I could also not believe how cheep 991 Turbo S are now compared to 997 Turbos :eek: ........not that I was looking.........at all........no....no.....no
 
Much cheaper than I expected for a 991t?!
I wonder if the reliability of the motor (or lack thereof) is hurting cars, though shouldnt this have a 10 year warranty? I thought they had extended warranties on the 3.8 to 120k miles or 10 years?
 
I'm not up on 991 models but was that not just for the GT3 engine :dont know:
 
No issues with engine relibility issues on anything other than GT3's.
Rediculous money for the performance.
Sponge......time to say it.
Silver is the new Yellow :floor:

The turbo is pretty bulletproof unless you know something we dont? :dont know:

The problem I have (in addition to Mrs SBSP) is a yellow one is clearly going to be 10 grand more than a silver one :nooo:

:hand: :hand: A 991 turbo, with your driving licence :hand: :hand:
 
What do you reckon he bought it in at?
£65k
£68k
£70k :dont know:

Turbo S are similar money for a few extra miles.

Here we go.....the abacus is going into o melt down :pc:

I think you should do a "harry" ie if you change them often enough SWMBO does not even notice :thumb:

No, was thinking of the GT3, thought they were the same engine for some reason, but then Im a 997 type so not up on the DI motors :D

In that case, they are definately a good deal!

It looks an absolute bargain. Supplied by OPC Bolton, 1 owner, full Porsche SH, the last one being a major, GT silver with bespoke Garnet and black interior :thumb:

It is of course YORKSHIRE :grin:

Edit. You buy the GT silver one, ill buy the Guards red one form AUV
 
I actually found Hermans brother, and hes a turbo :D



 
I looked at 991 Turbo's about 18 months ago and I made notes, as you do, of prices.

2014 Turbo 991 in black 17703 mls £99,407

2014 Turbo 991 in black 15839 mls £97,500

2014 Turbo S 991 in Black 18450 mls £ 104,990.

Phew I didn't buy one! Must be the Supercar bargain of the year.
