I'll be advertising the Cabby properly this weekend. When I have found the replacement for the '44 I'll decide whether to keep the Speedster or let her go :?

What is causing my dilema is, I have a turbo itch that I need to scratch. 996TT, 964T2 or a 930LE?

I need to advertise the Cabby to make room or convert the garage to take 4 cars. SWMBO is not overly enthusiastic about a 4 car garage. So the '44 has to go but there is no rush :)

I don't want 2 911's that never go out, becasue I'll only buy something that is in a similar condition to the old girl.

Gmund Cars have a nice looking 930 :)

Can't believe your selling that! 18K miles it's not even run in. Get it out on the road. Gritters will be out shortly. :lol:
