Spoke to Porsche Notts today…..probably end of 2022 for a boxy GTS….. :o :o

I think there’s some bull in that, I’d get one before then, but still a fair wait. Deposit going in tomorrow, can’t resist one after a test drive, curtains for the M40i….. :cry:

    I’m just about to get mine valeted and get it advertised - Mindful of the P take if I ask top dollar on the Forum but I’m not really sure what to ask.

    Ps . In full agreement about the age and wobbly legs, and an M40i would have more room for my walking stick!

    £29k with everything left in place, £28,250 with extras removed.

    You’re selling something that doesn’t come to market very often Ron. I’d give it a bit of time on the forum and if no interest look further afield for advertising options :thumbsup:

        I suppose if you want one now and have effectively zero chance of securing an imminent build slot you may jump. As you say, it’ll be interesting to see if it sells.

          Yeah :o :o right enough. I’m trying to stay off the BMW site for the sake of my wallet so hadn’t noticed this. The other one popped up on eBay so I noticed it buy accident. Same thing with this, if you can’t get a new one and want one, this may be your only option :cry:

            Have you WBAC’d it? I’d be very surprised if a main dealer wasn’t interested as they can’t get new/nearly new stock. You’ve got a reference point for one that’s done 3 times the mileage
