First 997S with an MOT?

My car had it's first MOT yesterday, post dated to 18th Sep'07, which I think was the UK launch date (2004)?

Could I possibly have the first MOT'd 997 in the UK or if not the forum - how embarrassing ?!
 
So it's us with the old crates then !!

The dealer has offered me a £48k trade-in against another, so £16k drop in 2 years - exactly as I was advised, although I reckon £52k private is possible?

Mind you at 22k miles, new front tyres and very well appointed, I'm not sure it is worth considering - a lick of paint by Reynolds on the front bumper, body buff and possible X51 kit could make it a keeper?

Clucking bell, which dealer was that?! Mine offered £43k. Reasonable enough spec, no satnav or Bose but posh seats, sunroof and few other extras. Slightly more miles at 27k but then it's a Jan 05 so you would have thought it was swings and roundabouts.
 
Looks like ours might be the earliest then... MOT dated 1st September :eek:) Doing well for it's age!!

Ours was one of the press cars - first owned by Porsche UK and had an appearance on Top Gear... I think you can still see Clarkson pull the gear knob off and the Stig spin it on a wet track on You Tube!! I imagine it's been in some mags too but we've not seen them... if anyone knows of any with RX54 MVF on please let us know.

We're looking for a front facing car seat now for our little girl who is 1 in November so was trawling the archives for the link - getting there but thought I'd respond on this thread when I saw it
