Wheeler Dealers

[ronk]

I’ve just watched an episode of Wheeler Dealers on Quest - the end credits showed 2014
They did a Porsche 993, bought for £12k and sold for £19k (N449 XNC)

Purely out of interest I looked at the Dvla web site and saw that the car they have done up, MOT expired a year later. Perhaps there’s a good reason, or it been just a bodged up and flog it job?

There was also a reduction of miles at some stage 160k down to 140k !

Exported? Track car? Written off?

Don't know about the 993 but I'm guessing a slow wet morning the land of the Prince Bishops!

No better in Norfolk to be honest - got so dark before it started to rain here that my chickens looked like they were heading back to bed.

993 for £12k in 2014?

Those things are £40k minimum today.

It’s miserable alright
It cheered up soon after midday then back to dark, damp and miserable!
Just glad going out isn’t compulsory

Yes - 3.6 Targa - a tatty / well used version from a dealer.
It’s dropped off the Dvla radar since 2015

Andy, were you having a lay in??

At 8:45 this morning I drove from Attleborough to Coopers BMW in Norwich with the roof down, bright blue sky and 5 degrees of scorching winter sun. It was a great little jolly up the A11 and A47, though I got a few odd looks.

And, to be fair, the Coopers staff do have a sense of humour! They rang me about 11 o'clock to say would I mind if they didn't wash my car as; a) it was already cleaner than they could get it, and b) their cleaning team refused to go outside in case they drowned.

Doesn't everyone? - just garden chickens (not like a commercial concern) but they thought the sky was going to fall in.
