Yes, forgot to mention that "lady owner" thing, crazy that's still a thing these days, let alone in a listing like this for a V10 estate.

The previous lady owner is a petrolhead - people who buy 8 year old M5’s and then drive them for another 8 years are petrol heads.
Her gender has nothing to do with how well it’s been kept or how hard it’s been driven
Yes, I saw that. His logic seems to be that he buys it for 25K or so, spends 10K on it... If he owns it outright in a couple of years, that's about the same as the likely depreciation on a brand new fast touring car and then he also owns it at the end. He's said a few times recently that he's currently more into spending money on older cars than the new stuff although obviously he still loves his GT3.

That colour caliper on Porsche is usually a hybrid isn’t it? That ain’t no hybrid. Changed calipers to an incorrect one and left gts disks maybe?Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2024 8:22 am Is it just me, or does this look like it's been running with no brake pads and the pistons are just pushing straight on the discs ??

Yeah but age will be playing a part now. It's a 20yo car no? Lots of brittle plastic and rubbers (I've not watched the vid so no idea what work's been done!).

they can ask it, but is anyone going to pay it?Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Sun Apr 21, 2024 9:42 am Hard no on all of those![]()
This will be rough as anything, an ex-Everyman Racing driving experience car, but it's the cheapest 360 I've seen, so that's where the bottom of the market is now: asking £37k.
