I know it is not for the collector but apart from the wheels it looks nice to me, am i missing something ar are 993 only worth more if they are original?

Still rather have a 996 C4S engine issues and all.

Narrow body car with Turbo decklid does not = 'Turbo spec'

Incorrect wheels - 993's don't look quite right on non model specific rims (IMO of course)

Ive seen that car before somewhere in 'standard' spec, recognise the reg. I cant remember what was the issue, but might have had no history and a suspect mileage?

Someone will know though!

Would make sure you ask a lot of questions. FYI - They failed to mention the 993 turbo for £50k they have was a Cat D when they first advertised.

[Pugley]

I hate adverts like this, "Turbo" spec (without the all important engine!) - No bleeding mileage - no history.

If you phone up I'm sure it will all be hogwash.

Why would anyone advertise a premium car without such basic information?

Avoid and avoid heartache.

It's a cat D with no history.

Stay at home.

I thought 4's had the wide body? (or was it only 997 4's that guranteed a wide body)

Adverts that don't mention mileage always appear dodgey to me, and if it looks too cheap, it's probably for a reason.

Proceed with Caution !!!!

Check the mileage carefully, that place got rumbled on the Audi forums recently for selling an RS4 with a 100k haircut!

4s are wide body.

Ad says £17,995, screen price is £21,695, hmmmm

I have seen this one before, from the pictures ( I may be wrong ) but it looks like a standard body car with fake turbo tail and dodgy alloys.

It doesn't look like a 4s to me

993 4's - as in 'Carrera 4' models have 4wd and narrow body - silver brake calipers

993 4S's - as in 'Carrera 4S' models have 4wd, turbo body and brakes - red calipers
