Hi Guys,

I have finally decided to move away from my beloved 911's and go for a DB9. I want to spend around the £40k mark and there seems to be some great ones out there for around that price from 2006/7 with fairly low mines, by which i meant between 40,000 - 50,000. In won't do huge miles - 5-7,000 per year max. I even saw a 2004 model with 13k miles on the clock - barely touched.

Can anyone offer any advice? They look to my untrained eye, 'almost' identical do the 2015 models, am i wrong? The shape seems to be exactly the same, except perhaps a more aggressive skirt or front bumper? I am sure there has been a lot of changes under the hood etc - any major ones?

Most seem to have either a full AM service history or from an Indy but are there any major things i should look out for? Most look absolutely mint inside and out. My last 911 was my everyday car and it was a 1999 C4 and still drove beautifully when i sold it a few months back so i'm ''hoping'' a DB9 will be the same.

ANY thoughts / advice / comments really appreciated. (And yes, Must be a Volante smile

Cheers

Dan.
