Hardly modded is this US 1980 SC. Just a sports exhaust and dripped in patina.


Technical solid car and with a few optical issues...


...but only if you really think so. My advice to the owner: preserve please.

What are your thoughts?

This looks nice but is in fact a riot of a car.

You know I have very few regrets in life. Not ordering my 997 turbo in gulf blue or mint green was a terrible mistake listening to clueless salesman. You won’t be able to sell again. I never sold her! That colour makes me go warm and fuzzy

I’ve owned two Mint Green 72/3 911s and while a great colour new it fades to an off white after about 3/5 years.

The new water based colours are slightly different hues to 72/73. Perhaps that’s why 2020 versions so much darker? Ordered 991 turbo and did not make same error again. I know RS colours but would have been lovely to have mint green 997 and gulf blue 991. First world problems.

This has got to be one of the weirdest modified 911’s I’ve seen in a long time....a 964 C2 modded to look like a 993 C2S. Quite amusing that the advert calls it a “911 bd”....guess the translation didn’t work too well !

310 brake 3.6 in a 1200 kg rally chassis. Double oil cooler, free flow exhaust. This thing is a riot.

They do not invite riff raff like me in a beat up 100k mile 997 hehe

There were a few guys there who have seen SWMBO drag racing over 1.5 miles asking when next VMAX is. Here's the link if you can perhaps post up on facebook or wherever you guys made arrangements much appreciated. Next one is 18 July. Here's the link or call Autovivendi 020 7625 9400

Love it.

A 3.8 and other under the skin mods = great! My definition of "lightly" is different to yours, but subtly done wink

Brill vid from Henry. Genuinely hope she doesn't sell my perfect car! I'd love to re paint mint green as she'd be totally personalised but she's so perfect as is.
