Every year I get to the season I realise I'm polishing more than driving and think of selling...

Only one on autotrader and 56k seems stronger than last year. What's the story now in the GT2 market?

Spent the afternoon cleaning mine inside and out, leather treatment, hoover, everything, I'll never tire of the looks of this car, and indeed it's looking better today than when I bought it 7 years ago.

Of course the brake drying exercise is always great on a sunny November afternoon smile

The silver/black PH smiley makes a good replacement for the tax disk.

IMI A said:
In 5 years the 6 GT2 may well be a £250k car. Having said that the govt may ban all high performance cars with emissions over a certain level and your Gt2 may become an ornament in your house like a giant vase and who knows may be worth nothing.
Not so fast. The CO2 global warming conjecture is still unconfirmed by nature, indeed some would argue that the 18+ years of stability in the face of soaring CO2 levels proves it's plain wrong (although it's settled according to all the 'scientists' with their noses in the trough).

Australia, Canada and others are starting to roll back carbon taxes etc and I think it's only a matter of time before a smart UK government grasps the nettle and does the same.

Then there's the fact that many rare 911s apparently end up in Chinese collections and whatever the truth about CO2, the Chinese aren't bothered anyway.

But even to me with probably one of the nicest examples, a £250k target in 5 years sounds fantastical...
