What do we all think then? I think it's a bargain - the GT models last a long time, not so sure about the (presumably) original ceramics on 180,000 miles though.

The last Circa 42k mls GT3 we sold made £14k more from memory. I'm not sure £32k buys an all together perfect 50k mls GT3 from a recognised specialist.
This won't be a car for everyone but for the right person a fantastic opportunity. A chance to plonk your bum in a genuine GT3 with no fear of using it at all and financially how low will it ever go?
Any way a car which will no doubt fuel a bit of lively debate

I've read the add ... so if the 'repair' initially escaped your thorough inspection how did you eventually find out about it and, did you subsequently go and re-check where the repair was?This won't be a car for everyone but for the right person a fantastic opportunity.

I can't see that the brakes matter that much, most people switch to steel discs and they're a consumable anyway.
If they're original then it's probably testament to the car having an easy life and the brakes lasting massively longer than if it had steels from new - just as the marketing stuff used to say they would.

Awful......?
thats what I thought??Henry,
a beautifully worded ad, just as long as you don't have a low mileage example in at the same time. Could bring some interesting questions regarding its usage
It looks in A1 condition and hats off to your transparency regarding its earlier 'incident'.
You can quite clearly tell you are tacking the Forum Banter head on from the off-set! Good on you!
All the best,
Stevie

How are the brakes holding up?
I'd be interested to know if it's on the original PCCB discs with that mileage!
I've seen the car in the last twelve months or less, as far as I know (from conversations with those that should know) they're the originals (and thus a testament to the claims originally made for them IF the car is not used for track work)I'd be interested to know if it's on the original PCCB discs with that mileage!
Come on someone, do the maths for the costs to run steel discs compared to ceramics over 180K miles. Clearly the brake pads and anti-squeal shims would still have to be replaced irrespective of whether the discs were steel or ceramic.
On the basis of the car being used mainly on the road you'd budget on front discs every 25K miles ? and rear discs every 35K miles ? Pads every 25K miles ?
