Ekona Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Last I knew they were sitting at £35k, hang on... *checks PH* There's a gen2 4S on there for £34,990 http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/porsche/911-carrera-997/porsche-911-carrera-4s/3853212 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bockaaarck Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) To be honest Dan, I was never a big 911 fan. I always loved the 928. or at least the look and the GT feel of it. But I took a trip up to Silverstone to the Porsche experience centre just over 2 months ago. I spent a few hours playing around with a 991 2S because I thought I really should drive one and see what it was like and I have to say, I loved it. I Having driven my share of speedy motors I really can say I was very impressed by the 991, so much so that I have been pipped to the post on 3 911's over the last few weeks. Probably a good thing to be honest, I don't need a 3rd car. Edited April 11, 2015 by Bockaaarck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Did you get to the 928 meet today at Gaydon ? I didn't go, but know they were expecting between 30-40 to turn up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATTAK Z Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 If they were £30k, I'd have one now! me too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bockaaarck Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Sadly Wendy I didn't would love to have gone. There are a few great 928's I've had a nose at over the last few weeks on the web. Sadly they all seem to be a fair way from me. In all honesty I have a few things which are higher priority at the mo than new wheels..........despite my incessant browsing of PH, carandclassic. Etc, etc Edited April 11, 2015 by Bockaaarck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a good thing to be honest, I don't need a 3rd car. Exactly how I felt. I never got 911s at all, until I drove one. That was an absolute game-changer for me, in terms of my petrolhead life. I WILL have another one, someday. Hopefully a gen2 non-S with a manual 'box and no PASM, in Guards Red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatooandy67 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 If I had 30k in my car kitty I think I'd go out on a limb and get a v8 twin turbo lotus esprit..... Not the fastest for the money and certainly not the most reliable but for me absolute heaven 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stutopia Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I was having a quiet G&T in the sunshine the other day and an XKR purrrrrrrred past me. V8, tick. It made my tip drip. It might be next on the list, that or Skoda Fabia VRS... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
