Can anyone help me find a good 993 RS or RS Clubsport?

[beesma]

My 968 Club sport is getting lonely so I've decided to get it some company in the form of a 993 RS or RSR. Preferably RHD but not essential. We owned one a few years ago but back then I couldn't justify having a car that was a "keeper" as my business was expanding, but now I would like to find one that I can keep for a long long time. If anyone can help me find the right car I would be happy to repay the favour with a long spin in it...

thanks in advance

Mark

www.gtclassics.co.uk usually has a couple. His German partner,Thomas Schmitz, has a very good reputation and is probably top RS trader in Europe.

In the history of the world is there a car dealer who hasn't got a customer who won't be buying from them again?

To be honest I only based my comment on having met several people who have bought from him and sung his praises. I was breaking my rule of never reccomending a car dealer!

I ve had 3 cars from H&S over the last 5 years ........'aint that bad! At least he gives u the full history of where its really been etc ..........there are several stinkers circulating over here at the mom BEWARE ! SIMPLE BASCIC CHECKS WILL SHOW ALL IF U JUST WORK THROUGH THE OBVIOUS THINGS ..........problem will be finding one first!

Very good mate of mine bought a car from H&S which turned out not to be 'as described' shall we say.

I would speak to Paul Mclean at GT Classics, as car dealing is his 'hobby' he won't put you into something that is not 100% cosher, as he does'nt need to sell cars to pay the mortgage/bills/put food on the table.

He is very fussy with the cars he sells, and I know of cars he has politely refused to take on sale or return as they were not up to his very high standards.

Number plate looks familiar

Thats a stinker as well...............night club Nottingham ...............well known story ! Not really for public domain , but its better than the blue one ! Oh and the purchaser [speed yellow] just outed it to a Trader in the Midlands

Without naming and shaming the individual cars, what are we talking about when saying they're no good? Accident damage? Raced and rallied?

I would have thought the RHD one on ebay would have been snapped up?

[993rsr]

Blue one accident damaged/badly repaired, yellow one yobs jumped all over the car one night!
