OK to cut a long sotry short...I was loooking to change my car again....3 time in the last year! What begun my enquires was I contemplated a FFRR Supercharged being sold privatley by a gentleman beside me for £13.750! was tempted but i know i would have got board of it swiftly so started llking around at cars fur around the 25k mark.

Just in one dealership the following cars were available...

2004 996 Turbo (im really after one of these)
2005 MB CLS Brabus K8
2005 Carrera C2s
2006 S320 cdi Brabus D6

Am I the only one suprised at how cheap some of these cars have got? I know maybe some of your are thinking big money cars, 5-6 years old could be costly to run but I've been there before and I dont believe this is so (apart from fuel)

whats everyones thoughts...anyone seen any other "heavy metal" bargains around?

£25k seems a bit steep for an alot, but then I'm not entirely sure what an alot is. So maybe it's a bargain.

Just had a quick look at PH classifieds. Cheapest 2004 996 turbo I could see that was for sale from a dealer is £32,950 so the one you saw must be well worth buying or a heap of trouble. Knowing the market I think you won't get a post 2001 for £25k that is worth buying unless you are mega quick off the blocks.
