As you may have guessed by now I am looking to buy a lhd porsche.
as things go it has to be 4wd as snow will be quite common where I'll be (yes poor me : the alps! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yes.gif)
I've tested a 993 C4 yesterday which was perfect BUT I just cant cope with the interior which is stuck in the 70's!!! (call me a pussy or hairdresser or whatever, I dont care, it's just too dated!!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/fuck_you.gif)
so it has to be a 996 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif but I cant find one in my budget and will have to wait for the prices to drop
Problem is I need my injection of speed as since selling the A3 I have been stuck with cheap rental cars and now the polo SDI and I just cant take that no more
so I just found a reliable cheap 4wd sport car as a transition : A mitsu GTO twin turbo with less than 50k miles for £7k. it's in perfect condition but it was originally from the middle east.
what do you guys reckon? Any horror story about middle east cars?
also what kind of problems could I have with MOT and ultimately customs when exporting it to France?
Cheers
Steph
