Looked good when I last saw it.

Someone sent me this recently ?

Is Greasley retiring then ?

Cheers

Is it me or are the prices attached to both of those a little low?

Cheers

Interesting - yes I think the K3 price is low - but I have seen him destroy that car at Brands once and IIRC subject it to some serious damage at least one other time.

I presume that the premises were G Force's? To my mind they dropped off the map after the Dage Sport days and I'm not even sure what they did after that - I presume 911 Turbo related work. IIRC Greasley's number 1 mechanic - a rotund moustachiod guy named John (?) died a few years ago and this seemed to knock the raceteam back.

greasely raced his 911 GT1 at silverstone not long ago, but it was so wet that it was way too dangerous driving a car like that

Is this the same 935 K3 back on the market? Wonder how much more than the £50k it was around for last year it will fetch?

Are you referring to Peter (Bulbeck?). Good bloke, talked to him on many occasions when we were playing with old 930 turbos & racing against John & Gavin in the early 90's. In this business you stand and fall by the quality of your staff, unfortunately people like Peter with his experience do not come along that often and it is easy to see why G-Force struggled when they could not find a good enough replacement.


.... so has the business been sold now or just closed down?

Hi Colin - Peter Bulbeck was once a Director of Porsche Cars GB IIRC - but there can be only one rotund guy connected with Greaseley - so I guess he was named Peter, but not Bulbeck. Heck of a nice guy though and always had time for our youthful ignorace questions!
