Its 380 miles away though so cant even go for a look/impulse buy it.
I've been looking for a 997 C4S. I personally wouldn't buy one that is kitted up to look like something it isn't.

Its just a factory specc'ed bumper & spoiler. I think the standard car looks lacking without a proper spoiler...

Kinross is the one to go to. Some pretty decent cars go through for much cheapness.

Get a bit of cash out (>£500), sit in your pants on autotrader and play a little game where you have to buy one

Surely you can't need advice on finding any single car in the entire town
I could have a car every single night I sit at a computer and I'd make money on most of them when I'm done as well.
Perhaps you need to get past the pride thing
