Brilliant. The ad has received 900+ views already, so we can look forward to some bare-knuckled bidding.

Why buy off CC when there's loads on AutoTrader?

Tailpipes don't seem to be sitting quite right?
Spoiler up is another alarm bell...

Price and new owner expectations it might be a bargain, but I know how much I sunk into mine as it aged!

I think that it only looks nice because of the wheels, the rest of it is not particularly special.

Funny I dislike the wheels and prefer standard 996 turbo wheels.

The blue with grey interior wouldn't be a combination I'd choose.

Slate Grey looks good. wink

Midnight Blue is a great colour …..makes a change from the silvers blacks and greys….

Here’s my old girl from back in the day wonder where she is now……

Same colours and wheels mine was. I wanted to love it I really did, but sadly I didn't.

Wonderful cars and incredibly reliable considering the performance. Had mine 8.5 years and I usually change cars every 1-2 years. Loved every minute and still miss it.
