The Dovehouse car could always not be as good as it looks but I think it might be fair reflection of where the market is going for the next few months particularly on the cars with over 60k miles.
One thing worth adding is that at cars this age will likely need maintenance on the rubbers and 'consumables' so it is worth knowing what the common things are and looking into the history and maintenance file (if available) to see what has been done.
I do think you will be rewarded with your patience and doing your due diligence especially this time of year when prices will soften and deals can be had. :thumbs:
Not at all, its great to know there is a support network to assist with advice on making decisions and giving me pointers...
Of course it would be nice if the first car I put deposit down on and had the PPI for was perfect but in the real world it was always going to be pretty unlikely - I am pragmatic though and understand that a car in perfect condition isn't going to fall within budget.
I am happy in the knowledge that there is a 911 in my near(ish) future and with help from the likes of yourself and the other guys on here I am going to be able to make a more informed decision.
Cheers,
Karl
