If I may - I would like to list my car here for sale.. I am a member of the PCGB and the car is listed there also here:
http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/tm.as ... y=&#575284

Thanks in advance:

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

For Sale due to personal circumstances is my much loved Porsche 944 2.7 Lux. In my ownership I have looked after this car with no expense spared and I can say the same for the previous owners (I am happy to explain why this is for sale to a genuine interested party - but it is purely personal and nothing to do with the car - so please understand why I havent put it here for all to see). Full and complete service history by either an OPC or independent Porsche specialists (GT One in my ownership, Andy Moss in previous ownership) with all receipts. Last service in Jan 10 with GT One at 83k.

The car has had a PCGB official market valuation in April-10 of £5000

The car wants for nothing and would be perfect for someone who wants a 100% reliable car, and fantastic Porsche 944 ownership.

Many many pics available on request - and most have already been posted here:
http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/tm.asp?m=534444

I am looking for a price of £3750 or a very good offer around this mark.

Hi,

OK Interior Pics as follows. Please excuse the fact that the car is not Hoovered out, I have litrally come in and taken pics as the car gets used - so at least you get an idea of everyday condition..:

Only issues with the interior are as I described in the origional add.. Slight wear to the drivers bolster and a small rip on the drivers rear seat upper (plus standard dash cracks).. Both seats are repearable (Southbound confirmed) but something I have never done...

I would guage the rest of the interior of extremelly good condition ...

Hope that all helps..

Cheers Anthony
