Not been on the forum recently as I've been really busy.

Over the last couple of months I ended up first selling my GT3 and then the 992. I was myself questioning the decision to sell both cars. I would say I achieved a market trade in price for both cars, possibly a bit more than trade for the GT3 as sold that privately.

In hindsight I'm now wondering if it was a stroke of genius!

Anyway my search for the next Porsche begins and I may just do without for the next 6 months to see how the market pans out.

In the mean time I'm driving this - yes I know it's different but I have to say I'm loving it!

Nothing wrong with one of those Arif, I've got a much older version and Anne says it's the most comfortable seat in anything we've got at the moment!

Will look forward to the next episode, Taycan maybe?

Arif with no Porsche!? Just doesn’t seem right! :o

Hope you got back close to what you paid for the GT3.

I really wasn't expecting that. :shock:

Much more practical than a Porsche anyway :D :D :D

I also sold my 991.2, handing it back on the Monday of lockdown....very fortuitous...felt the time was right to do some financial housekeeping
Still got the Cayenne and name down for a Taycan

Quite a surreal experience...they actually wanted the car asap (they've not got another base 911 for sale) so I didn't hesitate! They said they'd already got a buyer...but that must have fallen through as it's still for sale on their website

Thanks Guys and I hope you are all keeping well and safe.

Still thinking about Taycan but still not quite sure.

I totalled a cost of 21k over the two cars and got back just below what I paid for the GT3.
