I was looking forward to buying JO11NY C via the DVLA website for a mere 780 bucks today. It went on sale at half 8 this morning........ So tried constantly whereby website was overloaded and couldn't get in.....

First time I was able to get into site at 12pm it was gone!!!

Do you guys think it's a fix? Or I was just unlucky?

A very disappointed JohnyCarrera

[OJ...]

Well I paid £950 for it in the end. Thought I could turn a little profit???

[johnycarrera]

OJ.........

[OJ...]

You know I'd sell it to you at cost...but I'd have a lot of fun along the way! OJ

Its just luck mate - I got all mine via the DVLA auctions:
Landy S1LRS
Pork S11LRS
Merc S111LRS
but I was looking for S11ERS and S111ERS which were gone by the time I got through!
You could ask OJ... to sell you T055 POT!

Already gone by the time I got there. The owner of an Audi Avant paid over the odds for it.....

PO11 RKY for £1300 of your taxed income (my wife thought I was buying it for her and I got a slap!) OJ.

Is that for your new GTS?

Oh what a Christmas if it were!


...suppose I could sell off the wife and children, remortgage the house and px the 2S?

Thats a bummer Johny, I know you had your heart set on it.

[ALY77]

You will likely have been blocked out by reg transfers and their autodialler system.

It'll be on their site shortly I'd guess at three times the price plus vat and assignment fees.

[oldcynic]

regtransfers are offering it for £1799 - although that's as a pre-order. £1000 mark-up if they managed to buy it!

So what does it take to set up such a company? - beats working for a living!

[johnycarrera]

bds!!! I feel truly cheated, tried constantly, damn auto-diallers!

Never mind :-(

[OlberJ]

Can i be stupid for a minute please?

Would this be for the 993 JC? Surely you couldn't put it on a car of that age? Or is this for the Abarth?

[johnycarrera]

Neither, I'd have put it on retention for a while until I could afford at least an 11 plate.............. Stupid doesn't quite cut it Oli

Ah fair enough. Didn't think of letting it rot away/appreciate for a while.

Would be tempted to buy something decidedly rubbish but brand new to put it on though

Yeah, go for it JohnyCorsa.....

[johnycarrera]

I know, not due a new car for 3 n half years though and I'm sure I'll have thousands to spend on the Porsche between now and then, need that lotto win!

[6C4GTS]

On the upside you have saved 25 quid a year retention fee!
No didn't think that would help - sorry mate.
Personally I like the 993 plate - its cool in a johnny type of way.
