It has a few more miles than average but is for sale at Paragon so will be top notch condition wise and have a bumper to bumper 12 month warranty on it.

Good guys to deal with as well.

Great colour, great price. Comfort though but that suits some people.

you thinking of getting another??

Pricing up some tweaks to mine. Might fancy a track play sometime, would you be up for it?

No not another one for me, just doing my bit for other users who are maybe looking for one.

On the trackday question, maybe, depending upon the circuit and the organiser.

Hatfield have a 56 plate ClubSport with 15k miles up for £72,900.


Is that over-priced? Makes this look like a bargain to me.

That does look good. I love estoril on BMWs but I'd be happy with Cobalt on a 997.

My mate Paul just bought the white CS from 911V and that was a smudge under £70k. Perfect spec though with nice touches like white centre console and cage, pccbs. It seems that's where the prices are.

Hmm if my memory serves me right that was a 10k mile car with nice carbon touches and CS not a comfort with nearly 40k .

The one your friend bought at 7k more makes more sense to me

Mine has a sunroof, I know of a few that do on here, for a car that's used for euro trips it's great to be able to open it up and listen to the Metzger flat 6 as you blat through the alps.

To be fair mine is the full Monty comfort spec with the following options,

Full leather dash with extended leather and alcantara to door cards.
Sports chrono.
Sports exhaust.
Adaptive sports seats.
PCM 2 sat nav with phone.
Climate control.
Sun roof.
Cruise control.
Thicker sports steering wheel in leather.
It's even got an umbrella next to the passenger seat.

I didn't buy the car for track-days so the spec is perfect for my requirements.
I understand that a sunroof places slightly more weight high up and reduces torsional rigidity by a margin but unless you can drive like Steve Rance you wont notice it at all, these cars limits are so far beyond the limit of most drivers.

Though for a track-day car I totally understand the appeal of the club sport pack.

Yeah but the ashtray looks like it has had a major off & has been badly repaired, so it's only worth two groats, but I'll give three because I'm doing them a favour wink

The umbrella option I think is standard for all GT3's even going back to the MK1 996. Each was fitted with the space by the passenger door. It is just some of them forgot to include the actual umbrella!!

Having driven with Pete's car I can recall it being pretty quick, handling not too bad and making quite a nice noise.......Gt3's.....any version are a bargain.....

Have we factored in the 10K refresh that is required on all Gt3's whether new out the showroom or 15 years old!!!

Interesting my Boxster is Estoril & I know of a 911 in the same colour in TIPEC. Looks quite different to Cobalt when they are together.
