Hi,

After a few years away from the Porsche brand, I have jumped back in with both feet.

Last Fri I collected an immaculate 997.1 with 30k miles and a mint 964 with 70k miles. Both in marmite guards red. Got an EV a couple of months ago (BMW i4 M50) and have really missed the character offered by an older Porsche.

Hopefully the worst of their depreciation has long since past and I can enjoy both without worrying that I have made a huge financial faux pas.

Cars were supplied by the awesome William Francis Porsche in Suffolk. An independent who puts the big boys to shame when it comes to putting the customer first.

Anyhoo - thanks in advance for all the help and support I will inevitably need 😂

Couple of beauties there - nice one.

Always liked the Sport Design alloys on the 997, had them on mine, think they look great!

Cheers.

Here's a slightly better photo of 997.

Got the sports seats and sports exhaust. Such a lovely 'pure' driving experience - especially compared the EV

Charlie said he had someone interested in both cars! Bought my 996 there last year, just had it serviced, and got to know him very well in the past year.
Had a great experience as a passenger in his track focused 996.
Are you local to him?

Yeah. Just round the corner.

Have previously bought 3 cars from Charlie. A great guy.
