I guess you mean 930?

I would have thought a fantastic but expensive daily drive - would need to be in top condition to be reliable at that age.....plus I reckon around 15mpg combined, less if you boot it a lot.

buy a 911 turbo LE. Just about practical.....totally reliable and satisfying to drive....Had one for two years 18000mls never missed a beat....probably better if you use it every day. thing is the older turbos dont have smart fuel systems and generally try to push as much fuel in as they can ...hence nice flames n banging on the over run ....al part of the 911 LE experience. If you are thinking about fuel consumption buy a diesel astra.For a better daily grind try Kiev
