Horrible colour though.
Love 930's but has to be the right colour.

not sure how amused Ian Anderson would be to be described as the flautist from Jethro Tull. Ian Anderson IS Jethro Tull. Heavy Horses.........ah, takes me back. Twenty years ago, at the Apollo as well. Steel Monkey. Really quite good.

A really nice car, but probably best tucked away as a garage queen investment now, occasional weekend use only?

Just sold an 89 930, great car IMO but an acquired taste and they tend to hang around for a while.
Trust me these things need to be driven, otherwise all sorts of problems could manifest, and if your not handy with the spanners they are expensive to put right
This car looks like a nice example which has quite obviously been restored etc
My personal opinion is these cars look better in the bright coloured to signify the period, albeit they look lovely in Black too.

Lovely thing though after all said and done

I tried dealing with this firm earlier in the year and found them to be extremely arrogant and unhelpfull.

They annoyed me so much that i even text Nick Whale to explain how dissapointed I was with the service and how as a company owner myself I couldnt believe he was allowing people like this to front his business.

He didnt even bother to reply offering an appology or to see if there was anything he could do.

Ditto. I keep thinking about this one and trying to figure out how to fit it into my life. Could I swap the 997 for it? What would it be like in traffic, on the school run?

Ha ha school run.
For everyday forget it trust me, my 8 year old hated mine last summer!
No these are weekend cars to be honest very agricultural which adds to quirkiness/on off power 15mpg crap ventilation/heavy clutch and not that quick these days
But hey i love them for what they are.

Theres an 88 model in Black for sale for 27k on here worth checking out, and a very nice 89 5 speed cab 930 on classiccars website for 25-26k, the latter i am quite interested in just finding the space.

So it's not just me then, I keep looking at 3.2 cabs & getting the itchy trigger finger-I think it's an age thing.

Then I spot some 993 targa tip & think "now that's just what I need for the daily grind"......

Great for a daily grind 993 tip.
Always like the IB cabs owned a concours Supersport for a long time.
But spotted the 930 at 25-26k i think and thought it would compliment the GT2 quite nicely, it was an 89 model also. Not been funny though but i am not overly keen on the way a 930 drives prefer the 3.2's to be honest, more enjoyable to drive

Doubt it would be ideal to have both IB & GT2

Sounds perfect to me, if the 930 does'nt kill you on Saturday you could alway's give it a go in the GT2 on Sunday.
Seat of the pant's weekends, crimp style!thumbup
