Mine's going in for its service again in April and once again I'm thinking it might be time to move it on owing to lack of use.

Are they making proper money these days or will it be next year (again) ?

Think prices will only go one way & thats North rarer than a GT3 and these appear to be going North.
Aesthetically still the best looking 911 IMO with stellar performance to match the 200+mph looks.

Only the truly ham-fisted/inept and those lacking any kind of common sense/self preservation.
In the wet, or with cold tyres.
As you say depends on the clot behind the wheel, you soon learn when it bites you as mine did when i was wet behind the ears, treat with respect thats all i say.

Yes I agree with you both. A female work friend had a beautiful green one and gave it great respect also took some driving tuition from those chaps at Silverstone that she said helped a lot as the car can accelerate so quickly you can end up mounting a car you are overtaking. Out of interest do the 996 models have LSD or electronic safety features or are you on your own? I've always fancied one so maybe I need to get in quick. I think if a club sport model were to make its self available then I'd do it yum

I remember that forest green one a few years back for sale at Paragon i believe. LSD and ABS but nothing else. Well apart from a throttle pedal wink
