I was going to say I had noticed values seemed to have risen a fair bit since I bought mine but this fantasy land. The interior is good though. Looks like something that had been in barn or garage for a decade.

99 red balloons? I believe the gun metal grey one which I posted nearly two years ago which was quite ropey, is still up for over £3k!

But it is low mileage! A poster not too longer ago said anything with 100k or more in a 944 is pure junk and that the owners were deluded in thinking their cars held a candle to anything with less than 100k. In which case this car is a bargain. With that outlook I would definitely choose this beauty over DavidL's 951 ; how that car can still work with that mileage is a miracle! :lol: :wink: .

In all honesty I have seen people pay over the odds for a car with uber low mileage despite its poor condition.

Hmm..Its true mileage is 130,000 - as the listing states it has had a speedo change and they do give the true mileage in the listing too. :wink:

It still makes one consider it more than my 951 which was on 180k. That car is worthless in comparison to this fine specimen ;).
