Are there really 47 GT3 tourings in the UK (C16)?

I think Chris Harris’s car is a yellow wrap. Car was originally Agate?

Im sure it was a racing yellow car, at least from the photos I've seen from the underside......

Mine is one of the 9 Black ones? PCR have told me 47 were registered in the UK.

I don't think so....

You quite possibly could be no 10!

Hi Johnzr4mi

I only have one other black car with silver trim, but I’m sure it’s not yours...
If you wouldn’t mind direct mailing me a few details that would really help with the finding of cars.

Hope to hear from you

Let me know what information you need?

If you turn on allow email from other users, I could ask you privately, and can send privately.
But main spec items and a reg or chassis number.
Most owners are happy to hand that Info over and I keep secure.

I need to put warranty on mine too.
Speaking to my dealer I think will choose the 3yr deal at £2750 (approx)

I don't plan on selling, so I am convincing myself its the best option....

[Monch]

Warranty only
Is I think
£1020 for 1
£1840 for 2
£2750 for 3

Road assist
Very approx...
£175 for 1
£280 for 2
£415 for 3

I don’t do road assist as my car insurance policy does exactly the same included in that.

[quote=MartinRS2K)

I was told 55 U.K. cars but there is no accurate figure from what I could find at the time

[/quote]

After 10 months or so of trying to find all the tourings as of today I have 41 confirmed chassis numbers and/or engine numbers that are different and are not to be confused with each other.
I have 60 cars on my list, (an extra 19) that are or maybe duplicates of each other that I cannot 100% confirm.

So, all I can say that there is no confirmed numbers, and somewhere around 50 cars I would guess.
Its probably largely irrelevant anyway.

But its true, they are a rare beast....

I haven't given up searching, and will continue.......

I think its a known that they're already more 992 tourings coming...
I will not be counting 992!!

And to confirm (AFAIK), C Harris's car was not an original C16 car. Not that detracts from his car, but it seems there were no C16 yellow tourings.

And if anyone would care to share details of the 'Notable Automotive" car mentioned above, let me know any details please, I have a 'rouge' Carmine car to chase up.....

C Harris's Touring was not a Yellow one from the factory but he had Litchfield spray film Speed Yellow applied when he got the car. You probably know this but i thought it best to mention it just in case it slipped your mind.

Absolutely

Its originally a racing yellow car, with a fancy Speed yellow wrap.

But not C16

Thank you :-)

I don't know which RHD market it came from though....

Notable Automotive have a lovely and rare Carmine Red Touring available. Folding Buckets, PCCB, Silver Wheels.

Believe it used to belong to someone on here along with 1 or 2 of his other cars.
Some others treats in there. Worth a look.

Thanks TDT

But I need a bit more 'personal' info on the car....
chassis number would be the winning ticket!!!!!!

I have tried to get info on this car a few times, and even saw it on the road.....

Its almost identical to mine.. :-)

there's probably 10 in some underground garage in Mayfair owned by some hedge fund dude who drives them 3 miles a year...

true.

I have found a few of those...

[Monch]

The Notable Automotive touring isn't my 'rogue' car....
I have all the details of this one...

There's still another Carmine car evading me somehow!
