I'm sure most of you have seen this but always worth another watch.
On the SL thing, I guess you're talking about the R230; the early R129s were incredibly well built.Sorry to say a SL Merc has never appealed (except the old ones), probably after driving my MD's SL500 in the early mid 2000's and half the interior trim was falling off. Probably at Mercs low point as the company had a few E class Mercs that where rusty at a year old, my company Alfa 146Ti was in better nick!!
Regarding Porsche 968, what do you think about this 'Porsche approved' 944?

The 944 looks expensive. Appears to be correct, apart from the lettering on the sills. The Lux isn't too quick though. An S2 or a Turbo is a nicer drive.
No, the S2 is 3 litre. The car in the link is an earlier 2.7 litre car. They're significantly different.Yes would have been an R230.
Also recall when he wanted to trade it in, they wouldn't, as they had loads of secondhand ones on the forecourt they couldn't shift.
I'm no Porsche expert, far from it, but thought it was a S2, but non Turbo of course?
I thought at first that it might have the standard used Porsche 2 year warranty!Personally I’d not pay that much for a 2.7 version. As a guide, I just sold my excellent condition 3.0 S2 for £16k, and that had 90k miles on the odometer.
At towards (or over) £20k you have to be thinking S2 version.
Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution
JDM only but quite a few have been imported.
True homologation model 2,500 made, with Paris Dakar winning history. The best still less than £20k
One issue, a bit like the 3200, is some engine parts are becoming obsolete.

lovely motors and i've been looking at these for a fair while now and so tempted in buying one for the stable, there are a few importers on ebay that are selling them anywhere between 10 and 20k
Try this...
R107's are lovely (I really like them very much), there's a chunky price differential for a good one these days, compared to an equivalent R129.If it needs to be over 30 years old, why not an R107? Way more stylish, better built as well. Mine’s 42 years old and still as good as gold - starts on the button ever time, even after being ignored for 6 months each winter.
