Angry Sold it...

Well, after a day of complications, my 964 has gone to its new owner - a very pleasant chap.

Totally gutted to let it go and have been like a bear with a sore head this afternoon, felt very sad to see the car disappear down the drive.

Still, it's Friday evening and the wine's flowing...



Cheers

Sorry to hear that it is gone. And that you are gutted.

Did you encourage the new owner to join Rennlist?

Thanks. I'm missing it already! I've emailed the new owner with Rennlist's details, so I hope he'll drop by.

Hope I'm allowed to still hang out here!


Cheers

Well Phil,

I suppose we can allow you to hang round as long as you promise not to make too many MG comparisons! (oh and you promise to secretly yearn to buy another Porsche)

Ok, but only if you promise not to split infinitives again

What about the Dark Blue 964 without a sunroof.....it appeared this was more than just a passing query?

And you BETTER stick around! The 964 board without the knowledge & wit of mssr Raby would be a sad thing indeed!

Phil,
As the others do, I feel your pain. I have dropped into a depressive state when selling cars... Untill the new one arrives and replaces the void, it can be tough.
Best of luck with the new project!
