Oh my! Have your eye on something else? Or do you travel so much that you're never around to drive it?

Fergus, sorry to hear that you are selling your 996. It was a good buy when you got it, and you have made many improvements. The next owner will be getting a great car. Good luck with the sale. Hopefully you will be coming back with another 996 (or 997) in the future. And, if you start having withdrawal symptoms, you can always come to Kingston and drive my 996.
