[testarossa]

It may be an 01 with 50 on the clock, or pure track car.

If it isn't.................. I'm gonna cry.

You missed the nice B&Q grills!

Actually one of those win / win situations. We`ve taken it in part exchange and so pretty much allowed the guy what he wanted. Showing circa 20k miles on the speedo, replacement service book with a single stamp at the main dealer`s. As such not guaranteeing the milage to be correct. There will be a big gap between the bug and retail price (ie not the normal £2k), because at £49,995 the car is indeed the mother of all cheap cars and so it`s going as seen without us spending any time and effort. The retail price will probably be in the mid £50k`s at which time we wave our magic wand over the car and hold the buyer`s hand.

A very interesting car indeed for someone !

So it all comes down to how much/little service history one can dig up. You'd want to ring the OPC, surely?

how many owners, and did the last one have an explanation for the lack of service history?

There is never ever such a thing as a cheap Porsche. Just realistically priced ones!

[testarossa]

Bargain!

Probably Lonman's old Gumball car.

I can confirm that its lonmans old gumball car

Nearly bought this a year ago from motorzone....

When Ibelieve it was offered for sale at considerably more than £49,995.

£65k wasn`t it ?

Henry

[henry-f]

I stand corrected.

I think £10,000 less at £49,995 it represents a very sound buy. Our chap had Porsche service the car and pop a warranty on it for him so it can`t be all bad !

Lonmans car was chipped and running a claimed 1.4 bar (I had it on email from him personally a few years back) and also I believe it had a big custom fuel-tank (200 litres from memory) fitted into the front to increase the distance between stops on the Gumball.

That car has re-appeared from my original post a long time ago.... its a cheap car . A friend of mine bought a yellow 03 gt2 with at least 6k worth of extra on it for 51 sterling a while back...used to be sambamans old car. Had a bit of history but still cheap like the one above...!!!

[charlie360]

Ray West had Lonmans for a little while just before it went to auction as I went down there and had a ride in it, although it seemed mechanically sound it was very tatty

[lonman]

Yep. My retired Gumball, Players Run, Cannonball Run Car.
