That's the one I have seen I think - was the first in the UK and shown at the Canary Wharf expo I think (well they had the first one and it was cobalt blue)...dealer said they weren't pre-selling yet but that was 4 weeks or so ago...are they offering it?

I f you haven't ordered one already you might have to wait...Q3 2007 delivery at most dealers now I think...managed to get stratford to quote me May 2007 but that was to order one there and then which wasn't going to happen. First ones are for sale already...seen one at £20k + over list

I have found another one for with 500 miles on it for immediate delivery far closer and in the same colour - this blue seems to be popular!

It's got a higher spec too!

Once I've seen it I'll decide what to do but the local one seems a much better deal as its available now with low miles  :wink:

Good job.  :cool: :grin:

I'm looking at porsche 944s at the moment, although it's more a question if i can get my lanky ass into one, rather than me head.  :wink: :laugh: :laugh:

Slick -

I'm sure you will go into it with you eyes wide open - but my first Porche (a 944) I bought in 1998 still haunts me  :cry: In the end, despite spending \£Â£Ã‚£Ã‚£Ã‚£ on it and eventually getting it right, I was delighted when it went

If you think an old mk2 can be expensive, you can soon shell out much more than the purchase price just keeping the fecker on the road. mine was at the awkward age and mileage (12 years and 100k) where all the consumables are shagged and need replacing at once - it was a mint one owner though.

Good luck!!!

sends shudders through my wallet.

And beating a massive waiting list!!!!!!  It's unusual to find one up for immediate delivery, well that's unless someone is cashing in?

Happy shopping.....
