Well presumably one person on the planet like the idea enough to spec it... I wonder what their house is like...

[matrignano]

Maybe one of those people who blew lots of money irresponsibly before having to give it away to cover a divorce settlement?

996 TT with pimpmobile interior; clearly one for a pimp in a hurry.

Absolutely awful isn't it !! And as for that wood.....

[GT6 Jonsey]

I think the exterior colour quite suits the 996, as for that interior well the chap must have liked rhubarb and custard sweets

“One off investment”.....I don’t think so!

It would be fairly trivial to change those hideous fake wood bits. Other than that the interior isn't too bad.

And at £88k also a strong contender for the 'Overpriced' thread

Oh wow!

Started looking at the ebay ad and was pissing myself laughing that someone thinks a hideous gold X50 (2002 pre facelift) with an S badge stuck on, was worth £88k

Then got to the interior shots and realised it was the same car!!

Deluded seller with zero taste

A quick look in PH classifieds provides a number of sub 50k miles X50 manuals for £55k before negotiation. They are in reasonable shades that wouldn't cost £10k to refinish the interior and carpets

Doubt its a pre-facelift, pretty sure x50 packs were only available on facelift cars. Still its silly money.

edit: you can see the glovebox so its a facelift.

I stand corrected but I think that is not really the issue

Me and the owner must be the only 2 people on earth who love it I wouldn't spec it myself, but I do like it. I definitely prefer it to silver with black leather.

I’d say 1-3k

For example:
1k on 100k miler
3k on a garage queen
