Manthey GT3?

Sorry appreciate the car will be sorted, but appears to have gone through a Halfords "Drive Thru"
Not for me...........

Looks ok from inside. Just run away once you've parked it.

Reminds me of this beauty.

I don't mind this gt3, at least it looks like the real deal.

The "slightly over to the right" S badge hasn t been stuck on as an afterthought, has it........?

Each to their own, personally I thinks it's got the perfect spec (but then I would, it closely mirrors that of my own car, apart from the dampers)
Drive it and it would make any cooking Mk2 seem dull in comparison

Remove the turning vanes, stickers and the sunstrip and it's actually pretty stealthy (apart from the noise the Manthey exhaust system makes, obviously)

Cheeky feck Henry my Mk2 ain't dull, especially when the driving god is behind the wheel. That reminds me better check the battery hasn't gone flat............not been out for weeks

BBS LMs, drooooool.

I would make it more stealthy, but otherwise thumbs up from me.

43 grand, really?

Just checking to make sure you're awake Ed
Glad you've found a car you're really enjoying owning/driving, they're epic things aren't they ?

Who would do such a thing?

Yeah loving it mate and yes the bloody battery is flat..........on charge as we speak.
Prefer it to the GT2 and more confident behind the wheel and plenty quick enough for my abilities.
It was certainly a good move, had a hose go on me the other week after a little track hoon but apart from that you're right "epic" is certainly correct.

Would love to have something Manthey tucked away in the garage -can only imagine how it sounds above 5k!!

Hi Jamie. Hope you're well ?
Manthey's good at 5k, out of this world between 6-8K though




How's the yellow peril ?

[rallyeman]

Loose the stickers, tow eyes, and RS winglets at the front and its ok. £43k with 50k on the clock, would put me off.

Just nicely run in

[David Hype]

The stickers would take 20 mins to remove, the front dive planes don't do much for me either, but hopefully they are just on with double-sided tape. I don't mind the front PU or the towing eye...

I love the idea of the Manthey 400 kit and the wheels are , so I think that is a fair price for what it is...

[JamieG]

Evening Henry, all good thanks. Yellow Peril as shiney as ever - it even did 20 miles last month..!!
Hope all good with you.

[JarmoL]

Looks like a nice car to me. Lot of money though.
Here's some 8K rpm Manthey sounds from my car. Gear ratio's fit nicely on this track. There is just enough rev range with Manthey ECU. Stock mk1 have to change 4th on main straight and also before the hairpin.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7T_TsoMO9Q

Having never gelled with the looks of the 996, I'm sorely tempted by the red GT3 also with JZM.

Whats the crack with the Cup front bumper on this car; is it a straight swap.
