Is the £5k 911 now a reality?

Granted it's on Gumtree, so the usual to advice to run, don't walk, away may apply, but on paper that's a lot of car for 5 bags of sand...

If you're not someone who's too worried about mileage, then this seems an even better buy:

Not sure about the advertised car but I reckon the early 996 3.4 totally standard with 17's and amber indicators in good fettle is a good place to park your money now.
The value's will only go one way and it isn't down
Agree.The value's will only go one way and it isn't down
I need to hurry up and find a spare £10-12K for a loved example. Tintop rather than targa or convertible ofcourse. Manual box is a must.
Would be tempted to buy a suitably period colour like 'Ocean Jade' too, but suspect this would narrow the market for resale over black/ silver/ dark blue a bit.
Some gnarly interior colours are probably best avoided- I like all of them, by the way. Having never sat in one, Im prepared to be very underwhelmed by interior build quality/ materials.
I'd really prefer a 02> facelift to drive and enjoy (pre-facelift lights are looking less offensive, although still not 'there'), but an early stock 3.4 manual is probably the one that's going to catch us by surprise in the not-too-distant future.
As Ive banged on about too many times now, the IMS scary has been way overstated imho. A look at afew owners clubs has got me wanting a 996 more than an E46 M3 at the £10Kish pricepoint. Foolish, Im sure.
Many specialists seem to think IMS is best left well alone unless its already borking. To buy a normally serviced car, or spend a bit more on one that's had eg. Hartech work done?
