Interesting 'business'.

Can't understand how it makes economic sence to do this to a 911 in pursuit of profit?
£18k for a 100,000 mile 2002 tiptronic Carrera that has been barstardised?
Who would spend their hard erned on it?

Tip 996 to 997 RS....perfect for Friday night cruising in Essex, Manchester or London. 99% of the public wouldn't know the difference!

True.

Doesn't look quite right -certainly no one who 'knows' would be fooled - but is no worse than turning boggo Mk1 & 2 Escorts into Mexicos and RS models. Harmless enough, as long as they're not being passed-off as the real deal.

I can, to an extent, also understand the attraction of something that cheap that looks that good.

Think most people would rather put their money into something like this, and put the couple of grand away for tyres and insurance!

I like the end bit.

"LOOKS LIKE A £100,000 GT3 RS COUPE
THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE!"

(Except a replica). Ideal to drive around in while wearing your fake Rolex Daytona.

Essex and London are in the South, Manchester is in the North.

I must be one of the 1%
