Exclamation Expat in Saudi looking for a Porsche

Dear all,

As a true Porsche enthusiast who has left his beloved 1968 911 2.0 S in Europe, I find myself now in desperate need of a second-hand Porsche here in Saudi Arabia: any model, any year - anything except Cayenne/Panamera - as long as it's not very expensive and has a decent service history. From a 2000 Boxster to a 996 (997 would be too expensive), I'd consider any option

Please help...!!! It's becoming a life and death issue

Cheers

Antoine

Can you bring in a car from Dubai to Saudi? I think Dubai has lot of used/grey import Porsche from Japan.

Thanks for your answer. It's prohibited to import cars that are more than 5 years old in KSA, but a post 2005 model could do... !

I am not sure you would want to own a Porsche of more than 5 or 6 years old. Never know how well it was maintained or driven. The climate is so harsh that they deteriorate very fast if not taken care of very regularly.

Many many 911 for sale in Dubai. You can search on 'dubizzle.com' and 'souq.com'. You can also go to porsche.com and check the pre-owned listings for the whole region, including Saudi.
