Was Ade's Ong's Polar silver car (now TerryB's Carrara white car) originally a CS ?
As far as I am aware - No (comfort with leather buckets originally).

Dan Sait's old car wasn't a CS either (another caged silver one with track friendly upgrades). Not sure on the ownership of that now either.
Alex Drobik's Clubsport is now a Manthey K400 conversion (you already have that car on the list).

Correct, it is a comfort model with leather buckets but has proper clubsport cage fitted

I actually sold the MCP Blu de Islands GT3 (on behalf of Martin from MCP) to a storage customer of mine who has done about 7k miles in it now (we had to drop the rear of the engine for a few oil seal replacements at point of sale but the car is in good condition) - Martin is a customer of mine and I have most of his Porsches in storage...

No it's not a CS but fair play to Dan he added two or three excellent upgrades while keeping the car in top condition for its next owner, me. Yes it has the telequip half cage, Mk2 brakes & M&M rear silencers, everything that you'd possibly want!





I've been dipping in and out of this thread for the past few days and for what it's worth I fully agree with Richard, these cars have been seriously undervalued as only those who have had the opportunity to live with one will know.

The pics are from me in the Wicklow mountains, taking the scenic route home.

Yes, the baked bean was up for sale earlier in the year... From memory it was up at £26k and it went in the matter of a day at most I think.

The red 911V car looks to have sold. Who bought it? Anyone bought Jackals yet?

Don't forget Neil, IF you ever sell I would like her back.

(email me your address again, I've found some paperwork you may want to keep with all the history)

Thanks a mill Dan I really appreciate that, here you go nbl993@gmail.com

I will but unfortunately you might have a bit of a wait

Her stable mate, my 964 3.8 Cup rep, @ Mondello last week with a few pals. Finishing my 964 became more important as I decided not to track the GT3 as it's condition is just too good.

That would be me. A great bunch of guys at 911V, Tom and Dan are a pleasure to deal with.

Indeed and I think you snaffled it from under a few other noses. If you're not fast you're last when it comes to bagging a gt3. Is the car going to Singapore?

No it will stay in the UK. Couldn't bring it to Singapore for another 25yrs (to import here has to be less than 3yrs or more than 35yrs old!, and pay a whole heap of tax). It will be my escape when i just have to get out of here and drive!

On paper looks a great car and good spec, and I'm sure reality will not disappoint. Problem is I don't get to see it until next month!!
