Well after 3 years of fun I've put the turbo up for sale. I've been thinking about it for a while and it's time for a change.

I know this is 'subjective' but the 996 Turbo is a great car!!! Oh and an absolute bargain at todays prices. It's given me far less trouble over the past 3 years than anything I've ever owned and it's been great fun. Not only that but I have met some great people through this forum, some of which I will certainly continue to stay in touch with.

As some will know I'm planning to scratch an itch that just wont go away. Yes, yes I'm off to buy a Datsun lol. However, once the itch has gone I will be back. Perhaps a GT3/GT2 next time, who knows ; )

Anyway, I know she's not sold yet and that it may take some time but i wanted to say thanks to all those knowledge forumites that helped me out over the last 3 years clap

I'll let you all know when she goes.

If you know of anyone that wants a cherished example then point them in the direction of the PH Ads ; )

Great looking example you have there, and I agree they are fantasic machines...had mine for over 4 1/2 years now.

Good luck with the sale Jim, I don't think the good ones hang around long...

...oh, and enjoy the Datsun GTi thingy wink

Cheers mate. I'm sure if someone views her it will go as she's in great condition and been well cared for. Fingers crossed.

If it makes you feel any better I have just been wrestling with selling my Datsun for a 997 GT3 RS and after a silverstone day enjoying a GT3 for 90 mins in the cold light of day I have decided I'm not quite ready to part company with my "Datsun" it's simply just too good.

Having said that the Porsche is something I will definitely be revisiting sometime in the future smile

Well fellas, she's gone!!! Just been driven away which was a sad moment.

Can't believe the interest I had in the car. I actually took a deposit in under 24 hours of it being put up for sale.

I will return once I have scratched that itch ; )

Laters and cheers for all the help over the past 3 years.
