Just agreed terms on a 1993,58,000 mile 968 Coupe, manual and with air con. One of the best looking cars I have seen paid £11,750 for it.

Hope to pick it up next weekend.

Car looks immaculate, carpets are in perfect condition, seats a little worn (leather) but not out of the way for the age.

Car has hardly been used and drove like a dream.

It is in a nice metallic grey, did not look to good in the pictures but in the flesh looks superb.

The only bit of work that needs doing is the front valance under the bumper, there is a mesh grill behind the spoiler that looks as though it has been damaged, apart from that body is in excellent condition. Engine is also spotless, are they all that clean ?

Front tyres need replacing, what is best ?

Can not wait.

Anyone want a MY00 Impreza, goes like stink !

Congrats on your purchase,, good to see you went for the manual box.

With respect to tyres...porsche approved tyres have an N number. You will find N1,N2 etc,,,,for different production runs of the tyres. The best thing to do is try to match the fronts to the rears in brand, including N numbers.
Best to change all 4 at once if you want a different brand. Th 968 is a sweet handling car, it would be such a shame to compromise it's potential with the wrong tyres.
