My guess is 70-80, and then up for retail somewhere after couple weeks at 85+ bandit
81.5k inc fees (if I got my maths right)

£80,030

£75.5k plus the 6% buyers fee (5% plus VAT) to a maximum of £6k, so in this instance I believe the 6% applies, not the £6k.

Close! smile

.... Now the question is, where is EJ56 GFV going to pop up next and for how much?

I'd hope a new owner would jump on telling us what plans they have, rather than it getting flipped.

Lovely looking car, but the lack of choice makes it a sellers market which should ease when more cars come up for sale in the spring.

Not sure it's worth paying a premium for GT Silver over a White car (which was launch colour).

The market never 'eases' in the Spring because it is peak buying season especially for GT3s.

if any of you looking for a 997.1 GT3 see WJ57 YDV (white comfy spec with pccb's) give it a wide berth, as it was written off in 2009 after I aquaplaned into the armco one cold wet December night, and had a speeding ticket a couple of years later! Interesting that the milage has hardly moved above the 26500 miles I drove, but still out getting tickets!

If someone wants to bleat, thats fine, but would rather someone know they might be buying a written off car being sold as good.

Out of curiosity would you not prefer the stitching blue rather than yellow to match the body colour? if so, chose the grey stitch instead of yellow, and then select 'Interior trim package with decorative stitching and embroidery in contrasting colour' (as one has to have the grey for that option to get the alternative range of stitching colours) and then you can change grey to blue - and then ditto with other elements you might want to coordinate. The yellow works but I thought I'd mention it just in case. best regards

Ah, a deviated stitching thread deviation. biggrin

That looks the dog's and for the money, new, what else would you possibly consider. Really like it.

Indeed, although I actually picked it up a couple of weeks ago which was technically closer to my birthday.

Very happy - the 997 GT3 has always been my dream car and when this one came up locally I couldn't resist! Had it inspected at 9E and apart from the usual 997 items like worn LSD, coolant pipes and AC condensers needing attention, which I managed to negotiate into the price, it's a good one!

Just need some warm dry days now to see what it can do!

Nothing untoward there and 9E (like a number of other indies we're lucky to have at our disposal) really know their stuff.

Enjoy!

Cheers! Turned out it has a Sharkwerks bypass pipe fitted too which I’m pleased about. Sounds great!

IME they do 'need' something other than a standard 'zorst.
