That did catch my eye

Just that I may know someone who could possibly be interested in the Mazda.

No worries, have a word with them and pop over an email if they need any more info, there's no rush, just the horses of Stuttgart are calling again.....

Look forward to seeing the snotmobile in Scotshire, if not before.

I wouldn't for a second try to justify why, but I like it.

The perfect turbo imo

Ummm... Does the 997 Carrera S (3.8) suffer the bore wear issues of the 996? If so, does this make it a bad idea to buy one?

[L100NYY]

Seems to be an awful lot of 986/997 plans afoot on the Thread

enjoy!

I have some thoughts, not yet a plan, but would welcome input, regarding the Mulsanne family.

From the driver's seat I far, far, prefer the Brooklands flavour, with the full console and floor change. So much more satisfying somehow.

Not available on an 'R' - would I be missing much, other than amusement?

It's the most common of the lot is it not? In Gen 1 form anyway.

In my experience... no. But then again, I'm a bit odd on these cars - I didn't feel that the turbo added much so ended up with a Silver Spur. Slow, but lovely. Better to be driven in than to drive, to be honest.

If I was buying again, I'd really quite like the Turbo S they did - quite rare.

this one has been for sale for years (and quoted on this thread a couple of times, too)...

I like this a lot, not sure if it's anywhere near £20k's worth but looks like it's been done properly

It's a Gen 1 I'm looking at...

How common is "most common"?

[L100NYY]

That BeGentley Turbo S really is lovely isn't it, one of those or equivalent R, Brooklands or RT are on my list.
