At last, I found a vehicle that met most of my search criteria in P.C.T Cars, Coventry... I have purchased a 1998, Carrera 2, Zenith Blue, 48K miles, grey leather and GT3 Aero Kit..

Although I have owned Porsches in the past, I still feel like a little kid on Christmas Eve.... A sleepless night is on the cards...

Roll on tomorrow.. I will uploads some pics once i've picked it up...

I just need to make some plans to attend the Thames Valley region meet...

That looks lovely, The Zenith Blue & Grey leather work well together. I like the aerokit although some are not so keen. Be careful of the front splitter on kerbs though.

I am very pleased with the car.. I love the colour and specifically wanted a 996 with the GT3 kit. Being an early 996 I know I will be in for expensive bills at some point, especially due to the low mileage and none of the big jobs have needed doing yet... (e.g. Clutch, RMS, IMS, suspension - coffin arms, etc) ...

For now, I will just drive it and enjoy..

Looking good with the aerokit, but as mentioned just watch out for them kerbs, they bite
