should i sell ?

[bananaface]

evening all.

im currently running a red rose t350c press car, with receipts and build sheet.

big zorsts and brakes, rebuilt by dom with a formula red body and black spiders... stunning.

but... despite it all... i find myself looking a 997 c4 or 996tt and thinking... could i use that more than just the high days and holidays that i do at the mo.

i no it would seem a little less of an occasion when i do go out, but nonetheless im seriously considering.

has anyone else done this kind of transaction and how was it... how do things compare ?

Well spotted q.
She is the very same.
I've actually got the photos of her in a Bush at the point of insurance company scare mongery !
Seriously...written off is a joke but it yes... It is the same car.
I guess it might bother some people, but shes a flying machine nonetheless

Ahh I remember now..
He was trying to close me with the threat of your arrival !!
From Holland he said !
I just thought that was a line but it was true !

I'm still unsure tbh, was chatting to a friend only this morning who was bhing about his 996tt clutch going cos they take such a hammering.

I don't even know what the t350 is worth now either...prices changing and her insurance rating but then she's got so much in her favour too...extras, history,red rose bits and rebuild etc.
God knows...it's summery outside I may need to just go for a ride and find out.

[bananaface]

ive decided ....

im selling her.

offers on a postcard if interested whilst i dust off me camera etc.

ill be around still. got my eye on else from bristol ave.

[bananaface]

I maybe need to point out that I have said Bristol ave and no longer Stuttgart.

There is no longer a requirement for Don and his prose to be rehashed !

True tho !

Str8 six are selling for 30plus ?
Ergo 22 is a bargain.
Previous values aren't valid today are they ?
There was only a handful of genuine rr cars as you know.

Wow, that's quite a bold statement you make in the advert...

"She was however registered as a Cat C many years ago. I have pictures of the crashed car available, Virtually nothing (as usual)."

To be fair it genuinely doesn't take much to write these cars off. The labour on bodywork is so extensive that costs for seemingly small damage can be it for the car with zero chassis damage, TVRs on a CAT C/D can make for a bargain if it was only bodywork.

Exactly Tony.
Only from your refusal to accept it have you avoided a similar fate if I remember correctly. It would I'd still been the same car...but the pendulum swung the other way.

[bananaface]

Sorry mate.
No I wasn't.

[bananaface]

She's gone mate.
First person to view bought at full asking.
Portuguese fella, don't think he's on here.
Quotes from the test drive included...
Oh my god oh my god I'm shaking I'm actually frightened...and
If I had this car here or Claudia sheiffer here ...she can go.

Incidentally I do have the rather lovely bespoke made badged car fleece still and will be selling it for those interested

Cheers for asking
