Yeah there were some top suggestions and chat on here eh?

Short answer is no, I'm no further on as I realised I was going to struggle with anywhere to put it until I get a bit more sorted in the new house. For which read half the garage is still full of stuff I can't move and other stuff is taking priority. I am however still scouring the web and various mags for inspiration so please leep the suggestions coming.

and the silver 993 turb I liked is still available.....

this thread hasn't died, just been simmering along out of site. However Tuesday will involve some aeroplanes and with luck a decision between blue and red

aaaaaghhhhh I cant stand it. I'm in a Mexican stand off on the price and it's his next move..... I just want it now but have to resist giving in. It's always the same, salesmen are the easiest people to sell too... because they know what they want.... come on come on, agree to my offer.....
