Hi Paul,
Peter Richardson is the guy that runs it. Sound bloke and knows his Pork.

I bought a 964 off him once and also still see him a bit via mutual mates. Always good crack!

He knows a good car when he sees one and doesn't touch crap. Give him a bell for a natter even if just to introduce yourself.

Say you've spoken to Mark the geordie with the mega-reliable racecar! wink

If you pop in ask him to show you his own collection. 996GT3RS, 997GT3RS, 70's 2.4S, 356, 993 C4S with 20 odd thousand miles on.... You get the idea!

smile

PS. What you fancying?

Ah right, very nice. I'm sure it will be mint.
He'll look after you. A lot of his stock, he has sold more than once due to repeat business. Infact there's a silver 993 he's sold 3 or 4 times now!
Good down to earth bloke.
Good luck with the purchase if you go for it. smile

yes

He's always got some nice things lying around. His own '7RS is the same as that one for sale and his '6RS is the same as yours.

I've already said in the other thread but that is Porsche at its best. If I can ever work my way up to a 996RS I'll be absolutely ecstatic.

Also has a nice looking honda s2000 for sale, looks in very tidy condition. So people rate this dealership then?

If you want to be flattered and charmed and smooth talked into buying a car, look elsewhere. If you're happy being talked to straight by an enthusiast then there are few more straight-talking or enthusiastic than Peter.

Hi,

Bought my 996 Turbo S off Peter a couple of weeks ago and had an excellent experience. He is a great bloke and had that car cleaner than when it left the showroom. Would echo the sentiments on here - a true enthusiast with a no bullsh*t attitude to selling cars. Having looked at all the other machines he had there I can safely say he doesn't market cr@p. I ended up spending 2 hours there just shooting the breeze and drooling over cars. By the way that 7GT3 RS is even nicer in the flesh - stunning. No qualms in recommending him, only downside is his location in the frozen North! It's a bit of a trek for a soft southerner like myself, but well worth it!!

Cheers
