Just PX'd the Golf! Strong Residuals :0)
« on: 14 February 2007, 17:43 »
Afternoon ladies,

Having found a 3 year old 911 C4S with decent mileage and good spec, i've now got to fund it somehow!!!!

So the Boxster S and Golf need to be shifted!  but i still need two motors (one being a work runner), so have PX'd the Golf for a (don't laugh to much) 1.4 Sporting Grande Punto  :laugh:
20K for the Golf is VERY decent and then discount on the Punto makes for a very decent deal, and who can ignore group 4 insurance and 48mpg  :wink:  I never expected the Golf to be worth so much, how cool is that  :cool:

Then the Box is PX'd for the C4S, it's been my dream motor for sometime and i can't wait  :drool: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

So once i get delivery in March then it'll be goodbye from me and goodluck with your chariots  :smiley:

Whilst the Punto might come as a bit of a shock compared to the golf, I bet you wont care one bit when you're in the 911 :grin:

Very very nice. Still hanker after an older 911 myself but I don't miss the Boxster that much to part with the GTI at the moment.

Enjoy.

I know what you mean Cass.  but i think a 993 would cost to much to run everyday, they just have such good proportions and performance  :cool:

the C4S 996 looks spanking IMO  :cool:

The talk of to many around and deals being done on the ed30 etc etc done my head in!
