Boona , I thnik you're absolutely crazy trying to buy a 'big moolah' Porsche in Ireland. It's p1ss easy to import one , and you will save money , find a better spec-ed car , in better condition , with all the paperwork intact..

Agreed K , Irelands just not got enough out and out Porschefiles to get the sort of sales price GT3's command in the UK , so it's worth mulling that over before you buy.

The other side of the coin though is that if you're limiting yourself to the Irish market whilst looking for a '3 you'll be waiting a while unless you're very very lucky. GT3's live hard lives generally so it's important to find one that's been sympathetically looked after . That's going to be difficult enough to attain in the UK market never mind the Irish market!!

I have heard that Daves (and by default your!!) GT3 would be one of those well looked after GT3's and is good for plenty more punishment , but I'd say finding a car like that , that's been worked hard but fettled well is going to be a pretty difficult task (unless you can persuade Dave to put a price tag back on his motor!)... Therefore it's off to the UK market I'd go if in the GT3 search ...

All in my humble you understand.

Boona,

I take it you've seen this by now?

If not, might be food for thought smile
