How much are you looking to spend?

Someone offered me one at work today assuming I'd be interested in the motor but I have motors pouring out of my ears.

998 model I belive.

All I know is the guy wanted £600, it's not mine but owned by a guy I know. We are based down in kent so it would need collecting from down here.

As I say, nothing to do with me at all, but I could get the guys phone number if its any good to you.

I am under the impression it's in exceptional original condition.

If its of any interest to you PM me as I will probably forget to look in here.
