I picked up a copy of Evo magazine this morning and there is a great write up on the GT3 comparing all evolutions - 996.1, 996.2 and 997.1, 997.2. Makes me want one even more now :love

I had to laugh when Bovingdon wrote of the 996 "when you first fall into its distinctive winged seats it feels every single one of its 14 years. Forget that the 996 interior in general is a little bit crummy....." He has obviously been spending too much time on the internet forums ! :lol:

But not being one to hang on the every word of a car magazine, I'd still have one in a flash. Lovely lovely thing. They didn't single out a favourite (indeed they awarded all 5 stars) but I think the 997.1 ticks most boxes for me.

Off to dream up some crazy £50k car finance scheme......

I'd imagine....slow changes....very slow changes.
Days long before dual clutches.

Was all set for a local car...FPSH.
Unfortunately seller doesn't think the car needed a service between 2006-2012 as it only covered 6k during that time.
