Independent check for 993?

[Mr DVD]

Hi Guys

A bit of advice please.. I have put a deposit down on a 95 993 from a dealer, trouble is I assumed I would have no problem getting an independent to go and check the car, no one will go and check the car and I would have to take it to the them. Nearest OPC is 50 miles and Northway are a good 60 miles away (no other independents nearer and cant imagine the dealer would be happy for me to take the car to either)!

AA have however quoted me £280, my question is as the dealer bought the car would he have done most of the checks that an independent or OPC would do anyway? The dealer is happy to put on 12 months warranty, I have checked the Service history with Porsche and it all matches up, the car has had a recall for the loom but not yet done, I realize this will have to be done and understand this is FOC.

Although the car seems genuine I dont feel comfortable parting with my cash not having the car checked independently or am I being a bit paranoid.

Any advice??

Many thanks for the replies guys, I've decided to get an independent inspection and managed to get Steve Bull (Independent in Devizes) to go and look at the car this week, so I'll be keeping my fingers crossed its a good'un...
