Only slight negative is the paintwork is not concours, few minor scratches, stonechips etc, but nothing out of the ordinary for a 22 year old car.

Any inspection welcome (by appointment). Car is located near Aylesbury, Bucks. Mechanically this car is in superb condition with most major areas of concern / spend attended to in recent years, so it drives beautifully and should offer stress free future motoring.

In 2015/ 16 (c53, 000 miles, only 7, 000 miles ago) the car was subject to a full engine rebuild totalling around £17. 5k, including reinforced steel liners, new valves, cylinder heads, pistons, IMS, RMS, dual mass fly-wheel/ clutch kit at renowned Porsche specialist RPM Technik.

Like so many people that post adverts you've forgot to mention* the most important thing.

ASKING PRICE?

*I do appreciate that it's in the link to Car and Classic but even so ...........

It's £18,950 by the way. ;)

That looks like a very good car for the money, rebuilt engine as well, I bought one earlier this year so I'm only browsing, but that's a cracking buy for someone.
