i realise its a special car but an estimate of Euros 275,000 starting price for a 200,000km car seems crazy
good thing its no reserve then ![wink](/inc/images/wink.gif)

Is 120K miles really that much for a 30 year old car though? It also has a new gearbox, which was silly money at RUF and is cosmetically in fine fettle for such an old banger ![wink](/inc/images/wink.gif)
Could be an absolute bargain for someone. As there are less than 60 in existence, they are very tricky to value. The last one I saw for sale was £550k. If you want a Mint Green one, then there is only one in existence so grab it while you can!

Car looks lovely and is an incredible colour.
Apologies but I couldn't see any details on the auction page about its history and I have a friend who might be interested in bidding. Has it been in any crashes/accidents?
If anyone is thinking about bidding I just want to say that driving/owning a Ruf CTR is an incredible experience and well worth it.

Adam did you by any chance own a Yellow one back in 2004?Apologies but I couldn't see any details on the auction page about its history and I have a friend who might be interested in bidding. Has it been in any crashes/accidents?

My father was the owner but I did most of the driving ![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)
Then you may recall back in 2004 we both attended an event call TV (Terminal Velocity) at RAF Woodbridge. It was a close run thing but I managed to steal the title by the smallest of margins about 0.01secs or something daft to claim the trophy which I still have to this day ![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)

It was the one and only time I've been in a CTR when you kindly took me out in your car. It was a serious weapon and I still remember being gob-smacked at just how quick it was.

I remember it very clearly! Was a cracking day and very close indeed. I think (from memory) I did the 1/4 mile in 11.53s @133mph.![wink](/inc/images/wink.gif)
