£5k fun weekender

[A4RON]

I’ve lost out on 2 Boxster S in GB over the past week & another genius doesn’t seem to want to sell to me for some reason, even though I haven’t tried to negotiate, maybe the thought of someone from N.I. ??

Both were at £10k with the right history & mods.

So.. if anyone has or knows of a local 3.2 S 987 with sub 100k, in excellent condition with good history/spec @ £10k max, drop me a message.

Will consider a really good 2.7 at the right price.

They are that good they hard to part with

If it was me on a 5k budget personally RS 197 Clio all day long I gave £3,500 for mine.

Ballintaggart Cars & classics have a 98 boxster at 3.5k. Does say its a Cat car, but not the level.
Saw it on FB

Saw that myself, if nothing looks bent etc that wee car is worth every penny and some, absolutely love driving mine.

The fact is been run for 16 years after categorisation, there wasn't much to worry about.

The £8.5k MX5 mk2.5 at ballynataggart has sold too! Crazy.... Although it was probably the cleanest svt sport you'll find. Still.... It's in Boxster territory with that price.

Have you seen his 3.2S? Its expensive like but does look the part and the alloys would be worth a bit if you weren't fond of them.

The black one is Cat C in 2006

Probably for the best unless you like mustard interiors

I do like that interior actually

Savanna is horrific, especially on a black car

 

[Jbridges522]

Personally love the colour combo

For the blue one on speedlines with recaros??

Yeah

You not thought about a 335i coupe or is that too big? 400bhp for under 6k is possible, up to 10k for a real nice one, loads of bits available. Same engine as a 1M without the 40k pricetag. A really well sorted one would match a standard 1M on handling too.

£6k a year budget to fix them needed also. Lol

Your hole! lol.

335_aye has been good to me at least! Buy with 90k + and the majority of ballbreaking has already been done! Ive had mine 3.5 years now and ive spent half that including all mods and painting / refurbishing. Cant be bad to that! Ive been thinking of changing but I'm struggling with value for money in the same sort of price range.

Sorted, close thread.

Mk1 mx5?

 

[TalkToFrank]

mon..... spill the beans

 

[Lappintyre]

Mk1 mx5?

Tad more exotic.. really nothing to be excited about for most.. lets just say, I came in under budget (original budget too)

Will likely break my heart but had a quick drive & took a chance.
