Thanks..lets see. would love a 964 or 912 with decent engine.. my 993 feels too modern, its great on track but I want more action. its too good a car to take "Everything out" In agve PSS10 hardest setting.. its lovley

With the Border car, I was gonna ask if they were interested in trade as that car has not sold in 3 yrs, been watching it..

Massively overpriced and I’d suggest a lot of due diligence in the seller and their warranty before parting with your money

Agree BR couldn't describe a car properly if you put the script in front of them. Its worth £70k if its perfect which you can clearly see its not. The rear lights don't even sit correctly nor does the engine compartment lid. I think they think it has provenance because it was once a racing shed hehe

Deep in the BR website they do a write up on the build and the back story ie goose's old car and they even admit it had a bit of filler

I've never understood why people put RS badges on non-RS cars..

On any other brand (//M badges on non-M cars for example) they'd be mocked mercilessly, but on old Porsches, specifically 964s, it seems accepted?

If / when I eventually get my hands on a 964, it will definitely get some RS upgrades but I can't imagine having the desire to badge it as anything other than a Carrera...

I wouldn't do that either, but the reasons are either self deception or an intention to deceive

Me neither. Colossal choppers. Next thing they’ll be calling the gearbox ‘manuels’
