Hi all,

M'y name's Olivier from France. I just bought a 1998 Porsche 996 carrera silver with full black leather interior, sport chassis and LSD.
I started 10 years ago with a gorgeous black 944 S. After a few years of fooling around with a Lotus Elise I'm back i the Porsche world...
I can't wait to read you and learn more about my new toy.

All,

Thanks

Barn

Yes it is a six speed, it's got 143,000 km on the clock, that's under 90,000 of your miles
