Has anyone seen the Aventura green c4 at Stirlings? Any idea why it hasn't sold yet - is it because its a C4 or is it the price - or both?

I've spoken to them about the car when it was at 49k. For me its the colour and wheels that put me off. If it was 5k cheaper still i might be tempted but I'd always think i might have preferred blue or silver more. Its had an engine blow up due to a loose oil filter and has lots of proper invoices for the work so that wouldn't worry me as such. It just doesnt jump out at me for 47k regardless of having low miles.

It does seem odd that it hasn't sold - seems hard to fault from the ad:
- Very low miles for a 993
- Manual, Coupe
- Slightly unusual colour - but tasteful IMO
- Almost full OPC service history
- Good spec - nice seats
- Engine work shouldn't be a negative, if fully detailed
- C2/C4 values similar, and some people actually prefer the 993 C4
- Price is at least what other high end specialists would be asking

If that was a 3.2 or 964 it would have gone in days, yet the 993 is arguably the easiest air-cooled to live with.
