Don't know it, but that's an unusual and really rather lovely combination!

Sorry can't help you with your question but... litronic, varioram, power seats, the best wheels for the 993 (IMO) and a great looking clean interior? Very nice 993 and a fair price, not very much info in the advert however? That always worries me a bit...

Looks a good one and is a rare colour. Is it worth 32k? Possibly with those miles.

However, the mileage is a guarantee of little. Still check it out thoroughly.

I doubt it will be a dog though....

I also have not seen that car, but have you seen any Turquoise 993 in the flesh?

I like the way they've photographed it in the shade. To tone the colour down I'm thinking. hehe

Where does it say litronic, or am I looking at the wrong advert?

Certainly looks very good cosmetically. Garage queens tend not to suffer from windscreen surround rot and chassis-leg corrosion.

You never know until you get there have a look at it, but that looks nice. Interior looks to be in great nick too.

Ha ha we can't all be super human driving Gods who know whether a car has good steering feel within 15 feet. Made me lol. You obviously enjoy going on the fezza forum winding the Italian stallions up don't you?! Daewoos having better steering feel than Fezzas - just brill lol.

Maybe it are the pictures but it looks as the stone guards on the rear quarters are missing.
Possible repaint ?

Yes pls if you don't mind and know you way round 993s. I don't know much about their weak points but guess they're similar to earlier 911s when it comes to rust. I'm a bit suspicious of why the people who have bought that car have then returned it to Portiacraft after such short ownership stints. Pls note I'm only toying with the idea of a 993 at the moment as do not really have the space but would love to know more about that car as it seems to be the only decent looking C2 thats come up for sale in last few years.

I'm in the minority here as I don't like the wheels. Absolute murder to keep in good condition also.

I had those wheels on my 993 and they needed constant cleaning to keep them in good shape, but they are a nice looking period wheel for the 993. The interior looks mint from the photographs...

I am not so keen on the body colour, but then again I like Speed Yellow getmecoat

The wheels can be changed easily. You may even make a profit.

A non issue.
