Yes

[Venturist]

So dealer bought for 74k inc fees and has turned it round quickly with a 15k markup, what do you get for your money? Anything at all beyond a warranty?

[vpr]

Well it was free for anyone to buy.

He who dares........

At only 15k miles, I'd expect that to be listed for £90k in the trade. Looks like a decent deal at sub £70k (although sure it'll go up some more in the next hour).

ETA: Nope, £68k + fees. Bargain!

Is this the same car?

I should be a dealer

That's a PH members car I believe...

[cayman-black]

That looks like a fine specimen.

[cayman-black]

£70k with five days to go still.

[KevinBird]

Plus 6%

[KevinBird]

It sold for £85K all in which seems something of a bargain

Maybe it will appear at a Main Dealer soon as this must be close to a trade price

[cayman-black]

The only manual main dealer car is the MF 11K miles car for £100k!

Anyone know the black manual for sale with Gold Cars Ltd for £64k? Seems somewhat of a bargain although seems to have been decatted and made a bit more powerful…

580 BHP from the pre-bosch engine management version seems, well rather bold. I'd want to ask exactly what has been done and what hasn't. Maybe that's why it's cheap.

That car has been passed around a little. Was being advertised at Targa Florio a few months back and the ceramics have been converted to steels.

Well that says to me that its been hammered around a track - as that's the only rational reason to swap the CCBs down to steel's is that they had been worn out on a track and the owner felt they would likely do it again and wanted to avoid the cost.

With that the engine messing about, seems it could be one for the bargepole treatment. Certainly explains the low price anyway.

I think it's an ex-track experience car, hence the steel brake swap.
Been for sale for ages.

Bit more digging seems to suggest it was the Evo car (ex. Simon George).
