It's lovely. But £25k?

Post by drybeer » Fri Dec 30, 2016 8:15 pm

Been away a long time - popped my nose back in only to say I've been in 911 land since last Christmas and although I started out intending to buy a C6 I have been enjoying having a different driving experience, however every now and then I see a C5 Avant and reminisce.

So - I was looking on the internet and I found this:

Thoughts?

No idea about the car itself but it's nice to see a car advert done well with some impressive photography for a change.


Looking for £22-£30k RS6 C6 Avant

The silver grey CSL doesn't seem silly money given the price of some. I think I'd be after that or one of the 996 TT's.
