Hi all

I am planning to check-out a 1999 996 SPS over the next couple of days. I have never owned a Ducati before (Jap all the way I'm afraid) but have always dreamed of one and now is the time. Can anyone give me any advice on what to check for?
This one was registered in April 04, has had 3 previous owners and has done 8,500 miles. The dealer wants £8,200 for it.

Thanks

Dave
