A very sad day for me, today I had to sell my lovley 996 C4S, I spent a year working in South Korea saving to buy it, and almost the same amount of time looking for it.
Its now with Tom and Henry at Virgin 911, very nice people, lets hope the next owner enjoys it as much as I have.

Sad to hear, maybe in the future when we get rid of this lot of clowns there will be an upturn enabling you to buy another.

I feel your pain. I had to sell my near mint Peugeot 306 GTi-6 (slightly different I know) due to similar circumstances. I guess at least the new owner is enjoying it. Upwards and forwards, and the best of luck.
