yellow and blue make green. blech.

Seeing as it priced at fourteen grand more than a 997.1 Turbo with twenty thousand less miles I hope it's a good one. Blue interior on a yellow car, now that's a acquired taste

Is there a 40k mile 997 turbo for £39k?

[Crimp a Length!]

Stunning
I love 993 Turbo's in SY.
Quite fancy that myself but can't justify 52k for it.

Yes , will being strictly true that is the offer I received for mine. Not surprising therefore it's still in my garage

I think a 993 turbo will always attract a premium compared to the 997 turbo however it is a niche market and these cars are generally sold through dealers than privately.

I quite like it!

It was discussed before.. http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

lower miles, x50 factory upgrade, some will prefer the interior, higher price!

As I said i am not in the market for one but now reading the old posts about this car there are good and not so good points about it. The good points, it is a beautiful car and the dealer is reliable. It is also competitively priced (there is another one for sale at JZM with the same mileage but for an additional £6k). The not so good points are lack of sport seats, colour of seats, also it does not have the x50 engine upgrade. However it seems to be overall a nice car. The mileage is relatively high so I suspect that putting 20000 miles on it will affect its resale value if it was resold let say in 3 or 4 years time. For someone who wants to buy one the question I believe is whether to buy a 60000 miles car and drive it as it should be (rather than store it) or say buy a 30000 miles one at an an extra cost of £7-£8K and also drive it as it should be. When time comes to resell it, the lower mileage one should be a better investment despite costing more when it was bought.

I've seen it in the flesh and driven it. It is immense. The pictures simply do not do justice to it's originality and one ownership provenance, and the blue (whilst certainly not my first choice either) really does not detract from it all when you see it in the flesh.

Ultimately it's not for me. I wish I had deep enough pockets to just buy it and keep it foreever but I have as of Friday now decided to go forward on an F430 and can't do both..!

For anyone in the market for one of these you'd have to look very hard to find one better.

Cheers,
