why why why? buy and not drive?
also, regardless of milage, 130k+.... i have a lot of respect for 993TT's, but even 993TTS is not worth that kind of money.

What a waste! Someone has more self-control than me. I would have driven that beauty as much as possible.

There is something a bit sad about seeing a 10-year old car with 1,600 miles on it.

What is the longest stretch a car can sit before damage occurs? I don't drive my car very much in the winter after the cinders fly but I hate to let it sit for long periods of time. I plan on getting into a 993 in the near future but I don't want some low milage dried up ole lady that cuases me headaches down the road! As for the TT what a shame.

I would say 3-4 weeks max without running it. This idea that it's OK to park it up for 6 months without running it due to the potential damage of starting a cold engine just makes me laugh.

That's like having a beautiful wife and never letting her leave the kitchen. Take her out once in a while!
And don't forget to show her where the bedroom is, she might like it too.
At that price, they'll have it forever.
