You are going to have to look for the car yourself.

There are a number of sites here in the USA that are good sources of used Porsches. I do not know of any in the UK though I'm sure there are some.

Maybe some of the UK members will offer them up?

Oh, wait I just remembered: Check out Total 911. IIRC it has a good cars for sale section, and this may be available online.

Other UK published Porsche mags have cars for sale sections too. There's GT and Purely Porsche: web site:

Another is 911 & Porsche World. Web site:

"Seems top end for a 2007 model"

Doesn't seem so bad when similar are on the OPC site for 50-52k......

Have you seen the frigging spec on the thing? PCCB and loads of leather and carbon bits - I would loved that spec (but tip kills it for me). Seems about right price wise, after you negotiate the inevitable 1k off

Look very fare to me if the car is in good order when viewed. Unless you are looking for a dogy car that you need to throw money at after buying.

My buddy has a mint 997 Turbo in black for sale, he bought it from 911 Virgin a few months ago and it has Porsche warranty. You need to look at it rather than waste your time looking at junk. Plus he drives like he has Miss Daisy in the back.

Totally agree. That one would be sitting on my drive now if it had been a manual. Not sure I like the way the wheels have been refurbed but that can be fixed. Everything else is mega.

Yep wheels look odd coloured all in alloy. Cheap fix as you say

looks nice in pictures, nice spec (although I would miss adaptive seats and heated seats), ok price from a dealer for 2006 50k miles

what about the aerokit one at wyneford motors? although description about wrong - its not a gen 2 and they don't mention the biggest spec item - the aerokit
