My favourite action (DARE) Ginetta G4 pic.

(no I didn't take it, I just think everything about it sums the G4 up - speed, poise, curves everywhere... and a road tax disc!

Phil C's lovely G4 above has been for sale for a while at £27,00 ONO.
http://www.northamptonmotorsport.com/default.asp?i...

Now it appears for sale elsewhere - but with a premium attached!
Wonder if they are selling 'on behalf', or have bought it?
Got the build year wrong, it should be 2000, not 2001. And I wonder if Phil's period 1967 F reg still comes with the car?

Mt fathers original round tube 1963 G4 - running a hot 1500cc crossflow. My father has owned and raced it since the mid 70's in the UK and since 1982 in New Zealand.

I was just going to say couldn't be anyone else!

Car still looks incredible!

Give Tony our best wishes (from Geoff B) and me John R (past ed of Newsmag) and I suppose everyone from the 70s/80s Ginetta Owners Club.

Havent posted in this section before but thought I'd share a pic of a Ginetta I shot back at a meet in Cambridgeshire a few months ago.

My latest toy now in my garage stripped for restoration.
My Jeep really make the G4 look tiny. Both are great fun with the tops down!

No idea why the post went twice (now deleted) so sorry about that but it's a while since some photos were shown. John you should have bought it many years ago, it's a good un! Car was featured in Practical Classics March 2003. Registration refers to the original owners full initials plus G4 of course. It was going to be G4 LWB originally as it's the first. H

Harvey, if you're referring to me (you must be because it was in my sights!).
Where did you spot it for sale? Did you get a bargain?

I thought I was always first to spot a Dare for sale, G4, DZ etc. Actually, anyone ever seen a TG for sale?
I'm constantly looking - bloody hard now - for that elusive G11 coupe No. 1. Will I ever find it?

Wasn't cheap sadly and it's all coming apart for a better quality rebuild over the next few years.

Nice one, Harvey! It's slightly older than my round tube G4 was when I got it, but yours has lasted rather better!

Lovely! Enjoy.

John, there is a DZ for sale at the moment in Germany, if you haven't seen it?

Hi James,
Hope you're well. Yes, I've seen it! It's been up for sale for some time now, even at auction last year at Bonhams, see link - I fear he wants too much. Estimate up to £20k.
It's the one I was gazumped by Mr Luck for when it came up for sale here. I believe he got it for 8k. Then he sold it to someone down south I think, who then sold to the German guy.

So, too much for me at the moment. I think the price will come down.

However, there is another still out there (hidden in a garage, something I know an awful lot about biggrin ), the purple (old Rover colour) Dare DZ.
Was going to have a look at it on the way back from Spadges (that was some time ago, obviously!) but owner wasn't in.

Where does the bl**dy time go!

What do you want, it looks like an enamel one, Fattorini's repaired mine for free anyway.
