How much, mileage etc? I assume it's a GT3 looking at the ride height. Is the front splitter missing?

Get it inspected by JZM, make sure it has an OPC warranty. High consumption costs(if car is to be tracked) are brake pads and discs, tyres and petrol and trackday fees. Will need geometry sorting if it's to be used on track. If buying just for road use, then don't bother as it would be a reeal waste and the car is not ideally suited to the Queens Highway. I bought one last year and love it.




yep its a mk1 gt3, 24k miles. hasnt been tracked, and i wouldnt be tracking it either. just 'spirited driving'. is it really that much of a waste on the bumpy stuff?

Nervous, you don't want a car like this. It's, erm, well let's see. It's bound to be, um, slow and... yeah, probably handles worse than a tea trolley and... you wouldn't get any pleasure from looking at it and... and... wouldn't you rather have a nice practical low running cost diesel Skoda or similar? Much more desirable, no?


nicely done, chum. here, have a
