Budget? Nice 944 Lux perhaps? Very practical, hatchback, cheap as chips...

What's your budget Harry? Our very own Frank Butcher - Domster - will be along with his price guide soon...but let's assume you don't want to go for a common or garden 996. This leaves you the 996 Turbos which are still pretty pricey I believe, and the 993 Tuurbo 4, which is now at price levels comparable with the cost of a new Noble.

Pat, princess, darlin'...

The young boy Ruby 'Murray' Stone is right. The 996tt is a kushti little number if you can afford the 70 geegees. 993 Turbo 4s are a sweet little second choice, with my boy Joel flogging a kosher RHD one for just 38k at the moment. But they're getting on a bit.

The 993RS would be the daddy of them all, but that ain't at all practical. Just like the Noble.

A 993 RS is a hopelesly inpractical machine, I struggle to take it to the supermarket,gym,park it outside restaurants and do track days in..i would not consider one of these under any circumstances

if you look here there is a black 993 RS RHD and a Black 965turbo S RHD
www.gtclassics.co.uk/gtclassics2.htm

both cars limited edition (damn right its limited ) 1 of 4 for the turbo S.

Don't think it will lose money and both look fantastic ! Why can't i win the lottery

A GT3 Mk2 is around early £70's and is still very much track useable as well as every day useable.

Possibly more sense might be a Mk1 as these are around £15k less again but no less focussed nor every day driveable, without the potentially massive hit if you rack up the mileage ! [ someones already taken that hit]

See PH classifieds for mine and one or two others
