Sadly due to financial problems i've had to sell my 993 :(

It was sold to a trader, I took it round a few of them yesterday

On the plus side they said the paintwork was amazing, so they should, I spent two days on it
It had never looked so good


So now on the lookout for something cheaper
Tom's 44 is tempting as is a 968 i've seen
but then there's the lure of the V8 :twisted: , a nice 928 S2 Manual for sale
Nah, can't afford the V Power :D

Hard luck mate.

Remember your knee and the 928?

The other 2 cars you mentioned look great to me, and I'm sure you'll enjoy as much as the 993.

Erm...... No Thanks! stickin with Italian and German for now

As an ARO I feel it is my duty to go through the models :D
928, 993 ....... next probably 944 or 968

I'm sure there will be more to follow in the future, quite fancy a 3.2 SSE or 930 :twisted:

sorry to hear you've had to sell the 993, on the bright side both the 944 and 968 are worthy replacements

Bad luck mate - I cant admit it often but my old 944 T was a brilliant car and every now and then i feel i could sell the 993 - bank a load of cash and have just as much fun!
