Hello forum smile


I'm in the market for a N24 or GT4 situated in Europe.

I am looking at racecarsdirect.com and motorsportmarkt.de and of course the marketplace here on PH.

I know they can pop up many places so once in a while I do a sweep of the general car-marketplace pages.

But am I missing any pages dedicated to this type of track/racing car?


Thanks

Coincidentally I looked at some N24 information this morning.

You may already know of these two links, but if not, they might be useful to you.

http://www.v8vantage.com/n24register.html

https://www.classiccarsforsale.co.uk/aston+martin/...

Whether that advert is up to date, I do not know.
The register might be useful, for history cross checking.

Superstition is alive. Chassis 13 was missed out.
The most famous is the development car, 'Rose', which is not one of the 14. Raced at Nurburgring and appeared in the TV programme Top Gear, driven by a rather cross and uncomfortable James May.

Always at least a dozen for sale around the world at any one time. Most don't get advertised, sold through word of mouth. Best place to start is with the race teams that ran them, will be a few coming up soon as they change over to the new Twin Turbo model. Check with AMR center at the ring, they will know what's available.

Thanks so much. Very good input - spent a long time on the N24 "tribute" page!

Good tip re. contacting AMR at the ring and speaking with the teams. My only concern is that it will be somewhat more expensive going through them. I'd love to find one around 65.000 EUR (I've seen two at that range and the N24 mentions 2-3 sales in that range as well). I'm not going racing so track-day-ready will do.

Glad you like the N24 register, I put a lot of work into compiling it. One of the Gaydon N24 is currently for sale, chassis number 8. Ex Asia Cup car now fitted with supercharger.

Well done v8vantage - great page.

The supercharger is a dealbreaker for me. Complicates thing and I don't need the extra power or really enjoy what it does to power delivery (on other cars I have tried fitted with chargers - no aston experience so I might be way off). But thanks for the tip.

Really appreciate the links guys. Problem with the US cars is the import cost - I would pay at least a 30% import-fee on top of the actual shipping costs. So a european based car where I can go and do a shakedown before writing the check is preferable.

But thanks - the last link with all the images and videos is very cool.
