Irish revenue think there are 3 Porsches in existence

356a, b and c

Went to see how much the CRT would be on this beast on their website, lol

Bet it would be a belt of a tax circa 15 grand just to swap plates

Good luck with the sale dude, you might have better luck selling it without the GT2 look wing.
The C4S is quite a sort after model but most people getting them want originality.

Looks a well looked after car mate so someone will get a good one!

Think you will have to move on price a touch. Dealers selling them with half the miles for less... doubt they are as nice as this sounds though.

996 are amazing value for buyers... I sold my 500bhp 2002 turbo for £22k OUCH

I went to look at 3 others before i came to this price its not the cheapest but its by far not the dearest but its a beauty ! ....i bought cheap twice before and by the time you pay to get it up to spec you are out of pocket .

Good point about the wing ...most people who see it in the flesh prefer it as it is now but i have the original wing and mech if the new buyer wants it .

These are starting to bottom out price wise and will soon be on the up.

I have a C4S front lip if you do decide to go back to std. For some reason my Turbo came with a C4S lip! I changed it to a Turbo one. You can have it for nothing

Thanks very much for your offer but even if i decide to hang on to it i still prefer the turbo lip and rear wing.

Update ...car past mot no advisories ..have got one of the a/c rads with a damp patch oh er missus!!

So i have ordered up a pair of rads air drying unit and new O rings , the complete kit basiclly so all will be good .

500 mile round trip to Hartech car performed perfectly as allways.

Ok so lets see some more cars offered ....

Its not for sale anywhere as such and probably wont be but if i can do a deal with something old and mint i will , dare i say it i might be interested in a nice bit of air cooled lovleyness .

Off tomorrow so will get a few more pic sorted if the weather holds up ..
