I sold the Indy at Stoneleigh, it so happened to be the first day it was up for sale too.
I wanted to go in a different direction with my next car and try and use it more often so went for this
I cant begin to tell you how happy I am with it, took a long time to find the right car but got there in the end.
911
911
911a
911b
911c

Please tell me you got it with a warranty. The odds of getting one that does'nt go bang at some point seem to be like the odds of winning the lottery from the information on the various forums, pistonheads etc.

It does have a short one yes, but what is a warranty going to do? Most dont cover cars over 12 years old anyway so that pretty much takes out all of them and the ones that do don't cover bore scoring and if they do will cost the earth. I have seen quotes of over £1k a year, I would prefer to stick that in a bank account than a companies pocket, who if it does go wrong will do everything in their power to get out of paying.
Just how many engines really go bang compared to the amount that don't? I bet it's no more than 5%.
As for the forums its blown out of proportion as people only say when something goes wrong so it looks worse than it is. I haven't gone into this without doing my research and am prepared for the worst SHOULD it happen but to not buy a car on the worry it may go wrong you would never buy anything.

You're exactly where I am and on the money re the warranty. If they gave you 3 months thats about all you'll get and theres more horror stories of paid for warranties not paying (if you can get one at 12yrs ) than the cars going pop!
Just can't decide whether to get it for the remainder of this year or hold out till early next…..
Awesome. Well jealous. Enjoy it!!!!
