After a nice early 996, anyone help?

[Nally1704]

Can anyone out there help, I've read the reports/reviews/forums(for and against), spoke to owners and dealers and I cant shift this desire for a 996, trouble is when you really start looking and narrowing down to what you want they become hard to find!!!

Must haves are Manual, sensible miles(sub 100K), proper history and factory car without lots of bits from Halfords(ok that's harsh but you get what i mean!) upgrades are ok if factory but I'm not keen on the GT3 kits, I also prefer the black or dark(metropole I think) blue leather, paint seems predominantly Silver or Blue, both are good but I"m not keen on the Green, Burgundy, White and definitely nothing wrapped!!

In an ideal world a C2 but I'm now looking at C4's too, a C2 Coupe with Ambers could be perfect but missed a couple of those lately. Oddly I quite like the Targa's too but not a Cab

Seems to be crap from £8.5k but I'm hoping to find a good usable car for £11000 to £11500, seems to be a few about that match the description but just wondering if there are any on here waiting for a new loving home to cherish them??

Thanks all and especially Andy, I have now found and purchased a 2000 C4 Coupe Manual Silver with Black and all as factory with full main dealer history and only 3 owners. Not quite the holy grail of C2 on ambers but close enough for me with a good colour combo(imo). Let's hope ownership goes well and IF it gains a little in value so be it but ultimately I just want to enjoy!!!
