Well, just put a deposit down on a 996 from another PHer....


I just need to sell my IS200 now to be able to 'do the deal' - so if anyone knows of anyone looking for a low cost, great value and superbly reliable 4 door saloon... please let me know...

took him bloody long enough, and I thought nervy was bad when he first bought his.. .. .. .. at least you didnt call another PHer on the phone and ask them to post questions for you whilst you where looking at it . . . . . .

edited to say well done all the same, once you start using it you will love it more and more everyday.

yes


^^^ What he said ^^^

And sorry about the procrastanations - at least i wasnt as bad as Nerv hehe but then you have to feel sorry for Carrera2 since he had to put up with it first hand before we did a deal

And Catherine, since your local to me - keep your eyes open for a rather tasty 911 (996) C2 in Ocean Blue with grey interior

Now if only i can shift the Lexus - I WANT MY NEW TOY!!!!

as soon as I sell my IS200... (I want to get it this week if all goes well)...


Unfortuantly, Broccers, I'm not in the financial position to have a fleet of cars of whatever takes my fancy, and when, so for both financial, and insurance purposes, I do need to offload the Lexus before being able to move to the 911..

Neither am I and therefore wouldn't expect a buyer to wait until I sold my current car. Any savvy person now will send you a low bid on your car as you are desperate to sell.

BRocCCcCCcCoOoRRRrs, Fidgits explained his position from the outset. He's happy with it, so I am. I can't see that your unhappiness is relevant to be honest.
