Having recently had my 996 c4 stolen I am in the market to replace.. the question is, for which your views are sought, should i go for a high mileage 996 thats newer (with FPSH) or a slightly older car but much lower mileage (with FPSH)... the specs are quite similar.

all views and advise welcomed

Make sure you investigate the changes in the model year .. as an example they changed to electronic boot and hood openers about Jan 2001.

my advice is to test drive both and see which one feel's right. just because one has lesser miles does not mean it will drive better then the higher mileage one or vice versa.

at the end of the day it's your car and what you feel most comfortable driving.

I wouldn't let age sway you too much - go for overall quality, and an OPC warranty

Just bare in mind that you can only have an OPC warranty for cars up to 9 years old
