Link worked OK for me.

No mention of mileage, but does look remarkable value for money if you're not scared of body kits!

it would look pretty good apart from the body kit (h/t looks smart)

but those kinds of add-ons are just ghastly

PH is back up now (I was just reading LL's I want a 993 thread )
That is quite a lot of car for the money, I'd want a full inspection first.

Actually suits it in yellow. As long as you don't mind being stared at.

Ad says 21k miles in the title bar ....

For ten grand though...I could cope with that and remove the kit if necessary. (Subject to mileage already mentioned etc)

Hell, anyone want to buy an 03 SS/Red 47k for 15grand?

as said though, I would want the mother of all checks on that car

removing bits isn't easy - there are often holes to fill or unpainted areas

having said that, if it IS all legit, and if there ISN'T a CAT D under there, it might be cheap

I'm very suspicious of the mileage alone - and clearly no HFSH

I'm so indecisive! First it was a TVR, then I toyed with the idea of an E46 M3, then a Renaultsport Clio Trophy and use the balance to buy a sensible family car, and now I'm back to my long term love, the 993. I fear it's still a bit too much for what I want to spend though. Might consider a 964 instead.

Ah well, musing on what to have next helps pass the time!

The linked PH ad seems very cheap - even without all the mods,

hmmm, all sounds a bit too good to be true. Surely, although other mods might be difficult or not worth selling seperately, he could have at least taken the mugen hard top and sell it separately and make more money. There are quite a few aftermarket parts he can sell seperately and still maintain a 'complete' car.

Not sure about the skirts and rear bumper, but the rest looks v. good I think.
