Just a few weeks ago it was on e-Bay for £7,495 but the bidding only reached £6,300. I watched the auction end without a sale several times. I contacted him, went to see the bike and did the deal outside eBay. I have looked at a few, and this is the best example I have seen. It was also conveniently just 20 mins down the road from me!
996 SPS (Ohlins rear, Showa front)
W-reg
7,000 miles, FDSH
2 owners from new
All the standard carbon bits plus some extras (heel plates, clutch cover, scoops, number plate hanger, chain guard, swing-arm cover etc.)
Three part-worn spare tyres
Black screen plus original clear one
Carbon and standard termis
Datatool Alarm
£700 worth of personalised "SPS" number plate
Brand new MOT
Taxed till May next year
Because of the time of year, and because I knew how long he had been trying to sell it, I haggled hard. We settled at £6,000 for the bike or £6,500 with his "worn-twice" Dainese Ducati Desmosedici leathers thrown-in (they just happened to fit me perfectly and I need a set!). He went for the "with leathers" option.
I just wish it wasn't raining  |
Sounds like you did a good deal, dont complain about the rain, ITS MINUS 13 degrees CELCIUS here in SWEDEN
