That does look good. Is it a UK car, or originally and EU supplied one?

No - the Paragon car had a (goooooooorgeous) red interior

Something to do with J K was a rumour i heard

When hunting for something else I came across this thread and I had completely forgotten about it. It is a funny world sometimes but that cobalt CGT really is a good looking car. Mainly bumping this for my purposes, please feel free to ignore me.

Cobalt is a great colour. A pal had a 7 gt3 in cobalt 👌
It looks great on the cgt
Romans had a slate grey car about a year ago
It looked amazing
I think the price reflected that it had a non original paint colour- so cheap(er!) and beautiful !!

DK sold a Cobalt CGT earlier this year....very quickly and it was fully priced !

I have this feeling zadkiel might know exactly that car a little better than he might be letting on....

I agree, I also owned a 997GT3CS with ceramics in Cobalt ... but not the most popular colour which generally shows in the price ... IMHO ..

[RC1]

Dont suppose it was a 57 plate with carbon sill plates and yellow belts?

[ChrisW.]

No, it was one with non standard graphite coloured wheels and ceramic brakes ... notable also for the fact that the original owner had not fitted the fire extinguisher ...

[RC1]

I ask because mine is cobalt blue and not seen any others other than the one for sale without the rear cage

[Zadkiel]

He could indeed be! I wanted to bump this post but then I didn't want to be "trying to be cryptic guy" but then I was overthinking it so I just posted. It's a bit of a long story that people might take the wrong way so I'm waiting until it can be told right.

[TDT]

Lol, just spill the beans already.... you got one?

If so post the pics and tell us all about it.

[Zadkiel]

Fair enough, the reason for my bumping of this thread is the fact I was actually able to purchase said the exact CGT in mention. The timing just so happened that when I was looking this car was for sale and a deal was done.

I haven't done a post on it or anything and kept it quite discrete simply because I have in fact not even seen it in the flesh yet, let alone driven it. I can hear the cries of trailer queen echo the internet even now. The reality is that I am based in New Zealand and this car is the other side of the world from me. In usual times this is not an insurmountable issue and it was my intention to use the vehicle when I was over in the wrong hemisphere as I am semi-regularly. However of course just as this car was bought the world went topsy turvey and I haven't been able to get over there at all. I'm not going to complain because far worse has beset many people and the car was a long term buy so it is just a patience game but it certainly wasn't my ideal scenario.

I'll post a bit more etc when I actually see it myself one day. In the meantime it is all tucked up safe waiting for the world to get back to normal a bit.

Congratulations Zadkiel. Well done and enjoy the moment when you eventually first get to drive it

[AyBee]

Wow. Stunning car and congratulations. Remember seeing this at Goodwood years ago (if it's the ex-Mike Rob car?).

Great attitude - congratulations on the car, beautiful colour.

Let me be the first to volunteer to drive it for you while you are unable to get over to the UK, so that it doesn't sit static for too long!

Love this colour. Looks good in red too.
