It was 4 years ago today I that I made my way down to Sollihul to collect my 911. The build up to collection day was so exciting, but actual collection day was a little different. A bit more nervous.
I'd spent the last 7 or so months looking for the right car, and was getting disheartened that it may not happen. Then I saw the ad pop up and rang them straight away at what I thought was a ridiculously cheap price. 19k miles on the clock. When I got down there it was unvaleted and it looked pristine, other than the curbing on a wheel. After a bit more haggling I bought it. From my calculations that this is the first year that any maintenance will cost me money. So it's been 4 years of free motoring, not bad.
Driving away I remember thinking f*** me, I own this. Catching my own reflection in shop windows of me in MY 911 was surreal.
Reading this forum certainly helped in my decision and why this car was the right car for me. So thank you to all those who have contributed to my questions and concerns, which have made 911 ownership the dream is hoped for.
