Does anyone recognise or have any information regarding this T350 for sale on Autotrader?

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202102229...

I’m looking for a T350 and it’s currently between this one and the Rolex Blue on for sale at Str8six

I used to see this car around my area. It looked, and sounded, pretty good
Not seen it for a while though; and I think it's been for sale for some time
Sorry that's not much help frown

Years warranty from Str8six v none would sway me instantly to the Rolex car.
Engine bay looks tired on the Green one as well, red coolant pissing down expansion chamber looks poor....

If they were the only 2 cars you fancied then it's a no brainer for me. STR8six car stands out a mile,the warranty and retrim are worth the difference alone. Add in, afaik, chameleon green is unobtainable now and the ad reads like a dealer sale then get up to Oxford for a covid safe viewing thumbup

Good spot re the coolant.

Thanks for all your replies. I feel you have just confirmed what I was already thinking as to the Str8six car is the one to go for.
Cheers

I was at Str8six yesterday and the Rolex blue T350 looks very nice and apart from all that Chas and Jason are good blokes to deal with.

They have an excellent reputation built up over many years (I have had my Griff looked after there since 2008) which of course they work hard to maintain.

No brainer to buy from them

Hi Craig

If you did go ahead and purchase the Rolex Blue T350 from Jason, I hope you get as much enjoyment owning her as I did for the last 10 years. Many fond memories and trips away, she is a beauty........

Hi, you certainly took great care of it during your ownership as it was almost immaculate inside and out. I’m very excited to collect the car hopefully next weekend and start enjoying some long drives through the summer

Thank you. She was certainly cherished by me and always looked after, originally by Neil Garner down in Wiltshire near me and then Jason at Str8six who I trusted without question and always gave the brief to him to carry out anything that was necessary. I have now bought an Exige as I had an itch to scratch, a very different beast but I am enjoying the feel of Lotus which is awesome. If I'd had the space I would have kept the T350, but the memories of many trips away in the UK, to Spa and Le Mans and making some amazing new friends on the way will stay with me. I hope she gives you the same amount of fun and enjoyment.

Yep, when you look at the prices for a retrim & before the prep and warranty it made the car head and shoulders above the one the op linked to.

You’ve sold the T350!!!! yikes

After the journey you’ve had with this car, that is a genuine shock!

To the OP who’s bought it,...you’ve bought a great car, meticulously looked after and improved by the previous owner.

Here she is out and about in a previous life on a trip to the Spa Classic





Good times smokin

It certainly did, and ultimately that was what made me only look at the one from Str8six, the car was immaculate and that was before it was properly prepped for sale. Chas was also a major factor in buying the car as he was very friendly and very knowledgeable
I think I’ve probably purchased the nicest example of a t350 available at the moment and can’t wait to pick it up

Good times indeed, as I said so much fun had and friends made over those years. Be good to meet up soon and show you the new motor.
