Is it me or are these two the same cars? If so is it a SOR car and does anyone know this car and also is the owner up for a deal?

In the C&C advert it states that the reg number is P11 LAM. In the PH advert, the reg plate in the picture has the first part blanked but the second part is visible as LAM. Hence it looks quite strongly in favour of being the same car.

I also think it is the same car.Seems to be a good example been used with good history and the guide price £55k seems very attractive.

so you wearing your buyer hat now, looking for a bargain....

why don;t you put on your dealer hat and as you said to me, splash the cash for a car you want and pay the money the dealer wants, you can;t buy something for nothing now can you.... such pristine examples are rare, so even if it;s overpriced, get it brought if you want it....

can i quote you back.... 'you are fishing in a pool of piss' for a diablo mate!

Not loooking for a bargin, looking for a honest car, nearly brought a Diablo VT 6.0 from Holland that was showing 8k miles and in fact the millage was about 30k minimum.

The car at Monks can be brought for £79k but £75k is more then enough for anyone to pay for that car.

Im not a timewaster and never have been and dont expect others to buy a car for me and get paid later. I have never fished in a pond of piss, if i did wouldnt have owned the cars that i have.

Why not just go to the auction or speak to the dealer?

i don't ever share private messages with anyone on the forums... but i will make one exception here.....

you have double standards..... you offer me a 58 plate coupe for 110... granted it was the right colour and spec, low miles etc, but there are yellow 09 spyders on sale for 106-108, and a white 560-4 for that money, so i kindly decline instantly (for 110 i would take the 560-4 every day of the week), so not wasting any time, and you then tell me i need a reality check and that i am fishing in a pond of piss......

as for me being a time waster, within minutes of amari posting the ad for the green car i offer him 100K... not my fault he didn;t accept, and nor am i under obligation to make that offer again!!

Will be going to the auction thats if it does not sell in the meantime.
Got the information i was digging for,thanks for the replies.It seems this one has covered more miles than the one being offered by Monks but i have been told to buy the one that has been used and been maintained well with good history.To me this car has it all and hopefuly the price will be under £60k inc buyers fees.I recall the orange SV at Bonhams FOS went for around that sort of money with less miles.
If this fails then the one at Monks is always available.

not a great colour match on the panels is it?
But all I can see are the pics uploaded so might not be a valid point.
have you actually been up close and inspected it?
When seeing a few in Mike Pullens for repair I was amazed at how basic and crude these cars are underneath.
And the rust was quite surprising. Can be quite an expensive task if have to repair/refurb a lot of the frame/running gear.

Sorry I see what you mean.
The "2" orginal ones which it would seem are one and the same.
Specifically the PH advert.
