Some pics from pick-up today. 19,500 miles, only extra is carbon paint. Sounds glorious and goes like stink. I first looked at these back in 2010 but didn't plunge, this was too good to miss though. Two year warranty, new rears and a couple of other bits and bobs. It really does drive like new and was well cared for by the previous owner. A pleasant occasion when the dealer was excellent to deal with. Even after they discovered it need a very expensive DSC hydraulic gubbins box.

Looking forward to happy and noisy hoons ahead.

19,500 if you don't mind wink And to answer your question I think the deal I got makes up for every other car deal I've ever done...

Not sure where you'd start with a 993... they don't really have a rally background like the early models.

You have to use some cup car parts I guess.

Is that the 230bhp one? If so, that is what got me looking in the first place. I see they do 180bhp R1 but my brother mentioned a tweaked factory version with 230 donks. Such fun. evil

That's the 190bhp crossplane R1 above. The new 2015 model is rumoured to have 230bhp in its most potent spec. So that'll be approximately 1277bhp/tonne.

Which is certainly enough to nip to the shops in. And all for an entry fee of approx £13k.

Hard to see the value in expensive 'fast' cars...
