I've come up for Air!!

[Ballcock]

Hi all , I thought I might introduce my new purchase..

I'm going from 996 to 993 , all in the name of science y'know

It's going to RSJ tomorrow to get fettled/serviced.
I pick it up week after next some time.

Nice Air cooled motor!!

Love the rear on them, much nicer than on the narrow bodied 996's

[guyvert1]

Nice, what 'Blue' is that? Midnight?

[Ballcock]

It's Iris blue ...
Thank you Malcolm for selling me your oh so beautifully kept car.

Btw folks Malcolm has been a lurker on PH for longer than most of the rest of us , and has promised me he'll log on if I introduce you all to the car ...


LET'S BE 'AVIN' YOU THEN MALCOLM!!!

The 996 is still the best car I've ever owned ...

Hmmmm , wonder what I'll be saying in 6 months to a years time!?


Anyway ... It's NOT a 996v's993 thread ... PLEASE!!

Hi Ballcock, and yes you have prompted my first post in 9 years of pistonheads membership (I think). Looking forward to hearing what you think of her once you take delivery, she is a real cracker and I would be holding on to her if it weren't for the double whammy of first baby plus first house on the way.

Well even tho i said the 993 looks nicer, I'd rather own a 996 at this point in time, for various reasons. Whether or not that will change I dont know

[Ballcock]

Ah Malcolm there you are!!

Thanks for posting , and thank you for being a proper gentleman throughout the sale process.
No doubt you'll be able to get regular updates on how your car is doing by logging on here!

.. And I'm looking forward to buying you a pint of Guinness in Dublin some time matey!

[DucatiGary]

well done barney, i spotted this and thought of you.

[Ballcock]

@dukegary

I'm already salivating at the thought of all the money I'm going to save on shaving products

[Pickled Piper]

Nice motor,

there are a few things you need to give some though to if you haven't done so already;

RSR exhausts with big tailpipes
Motorsound airbox
HID headlamps
Short shift kit
MO30 suspension
Strut brace

enjoy pp

Blimey - 85 months & 2 posts! You should get an award for that sort of lurking!!

Well done Bally.

You've had enough time looking after saucepans Torch, where's yours ?
