Missing service history I think?? .. Would that bother you Suv?

Hmm. Depends. If I could buy at the bug price, do the 111 point check and get a warranty slapped on it then it's a whole lot of car for £50k.

It'd be worth it just to annoy Nervy....

[Vesuvius 996]

I think a previous thread said this was an ex Gumball car. So you'd have ot buy assuming it's been ragged to death.

But if you get the OPC warranty then who cares....?!

....i was very interested, did some digging through some contacts and decided against it. I did ask henry some questions one of which was would he welcome an opc inspection. No reply to date.

I wonder if he'd piss in their tea if they came round?

A 5 year old car will be on OPC records, for missing service history bit. Ex gumball that means that it has been someone's who has seriuos money so i doubt it has had nothing than the full service's done every time.

If you where going to do the gumball would you not get the car totally chacked out first.

If you have got the means to spend £50k on a car then this has to be worth a days driving to see it. You know if you don't you will be kicking yourself once it sells

Au contraire. I know of at least two Ferraris in Canary Wharf which are three years old and have never seen a dealer. The owners are just too busy and don't really give a toss.

So more than a few details missing from the description, then.

Hmmm. Think I'll leave it then.....

[Vesuvius 996]

I'll leave it thanks!


Henry - the advert should have a link to the Gumball videos on Google Video

All the best,

I think that's fairly conclusive.

Has Henry taken on a liability?!

[Vesuvius 996]

Yep. My retired Gumball, Players Run, Cannonball Run Car.
Looks can be decieving.
Contact me before you buy this car so you know what you are getting into!!

[Vesuvius 996]

Man, Henry's gonna be so PISSED.

[Vesuvius 996]

Come on guys, Henry might be many things but dumb ain't one of them when it comes to trading. He probably only paid about £30k for it at auction I reckon.....


I'd give £35k no problem.

Agreed, he aint stupid and is in the business to make money but nothing like a bit of free advertising.....even it is it not good.

Whos going to give him a ring and tell him to have a look at this thread?

Where the fvck is Nervous when you need him.

[Vesuvius 996]

Maybe we can get Henry to do a "reverse auction" for it?

[Vesuvius 996]

I'm gonna call him. He'll be so full of ale he'll be game on.

that'll be some great friday afternoon entertaiment!

Perhaps Henry can tape it and use it on his website as a new comedy clip.....


NERVOUS : Erm, it's about the ex Gumball GT2.

HENRY : Look just cock off.

[Vesuvius 996]

911 (996 model) GT2 2001 Y-registration. As far as we are aware the cheapest right hand drive GT2 for sale in the UK today and one of the best value for money Porsches currently for sale. Just taken in part exchange the car has air conditioning, steel brakes, we are told by it`s former owner a suspension upgrade and goes like the wind. Showing just under 20,000 miles on the speedo the car has a replacement service book with one service from the main dealers. As such we can not guarantee the mileage to be correct, though this car has featured heavily in Gumball and Cannonball videos having the arse ragged off it by an utter lunatic when it was showing 28,000 miles. Offered exactly as it came to us except that we removed the Gumball stickers and the wet patches from the passenger seat, along with some bright red African dust from unmade roads and some teeth and hair from some poor Johnny Foreginer that got run over by it. One of the world`s ultimate supercars yet still everyday drivable, until you end up in prison.

Absolutely, Henry's no mug. I reckon he bought it for about twenty quid.

Still bloody funny though. He should put the links to the Google Videos on it..........

Although you missed:

"we would reccomend NOT taking this car to mainland europe, as most police forces have the registration on record and a 'shoot on sight' policy for this particular car.."

Unless i'm mistaken, stay away from America in the motor too.

NERVOUS : Henry, mate, it's about that GT2 you sold me...

HENRY : And....?

NERVOUS : I'm in jail.

HENRY : *click* Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

NERVOUS : Hello........ hello............

I can't see the big deal here. Henry's clearly mentioned the miles and history doubts, so what if it's been driven hard, it's a GT2!!! I'd prefer to buy a car that had done gumballs than one that had tripped around Docklands in 2nd gear.

It's ...... CHEAP.

And still looks bloody gorgeous. And Christ, what's the worst that can happen? £20k on an engine, £10k on a gearbox?

A gun up your arse from an angry copper?
