Hi Folks

Does anyone know the 2014 GTR for sale at ASM, Redditch (link below)... and if so, able to tell me any more about the car?

It seems well-enough priced.

Cheers

Are you sure that its the same car? The one from the videos was sold a while back to someone who was converting it to a racing car.

Same car. I spoke with Doug, who was the chap converting it into a race car. He spent a good chunk of money on the engine and suspension but couldn't fall in love with the American V8 so parted ways with the car and it went to a dealers in Amersham (if I remember correctly)

I've been to see this Ult and its not been kept up overly well, the garage above sold it to a vehicle driving experience company who used the car within their fleet of vehicles. The car has been kept alive but not loved in the way it really needed.

It was leaking from quite a few places with a tidy puddle collecting under the car on the show room floor, Doug had modified the rear frame of the chassis to do away with a cross brace that prevented dropping the sump with the engine in place and made a structural under tray as a replacement for the brace, this was missing.

I went with a view to buy but for me it didn't sit right with me and needed a partial strip down to really evaluate the true state of the car, shame as it looked amazing with the gold accents.

Probably explains the price too, it looks on the low side.

Small world.... these guys are just around the corner from me. I might have to go and have a look at it, just for the sake of it!
