One says Artic silver, the other GT silver.

Also, one has been for sale a lonnng time, ots got 26k miles on it but is getting cheaper every time I look. Only thing it appears to be missing is nav.

Whilst the company in question have some excellent comedians in their sales department, I'd save yourself some time effort and money and stay at home to watch Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow instead.

The first one is an ex journo car - appeared on fifth gear. Has had a gearbox at some point in it's life, but not a bad car for the price.

Still not clear - wheels can and do change colour in a cars life.

So if they're not the same car, why would they necesarily be the same colour?

They had a couple of Gen 1 997 GT3RS up for sale last year, I wanted to part-ex my immaculate 996 GT3RS against one of them. I made a 350-400 mile round trip only to be bid 18K beneath my cars market value, allegedly because there was no demand for them and winter was approaching . . . . Not impressed.

Me too, the first one looks Artic and the second one looks GT Silver from photos - not convinced they are the same car??

The GC Motors car was registered 03/03/08, so an '08 plate. The Clinkard car is advertised as a '58' plate so would have been registered after 1st. September?

Nobodies fick except me. The two cars are different cars but I thought they were the same colour. Since learned that they are not.

So GCs is an ex press car? Any more info on it? Anyone here owned it since.

Thanks

That does look a jolly lot of motor car for £68k. Once they get to £50k I'm having one.

Does anyone know the history of this one?

It looks pretty clean but you can never tell how much track time these things have had.

^ Last sold about a year ago at GC Motors. Its on its 3rd owner who was apparently selling for a wine hedge fund. Its had new brake pads and rear tyres. Seller didnt know / avoided my question of DME readout with "its been through our workshop and checked". Cant tell you much more Im afraid. I was interested til I changed my mind on colour.

Thanks for that. I know what you mean about the colour though there doesn't seem to be much else around at the moment. I am quite tempted by it, I just think it's slightly overpriced given the time of year.

White is stunning but its just not for me / isn't my style.

It was originally on for 89. I have an inclination of what would have been paid for it if your serious. Just pm me.
