I was driving in my local area on Friday and to my surprise saw a GT1 sitting in a queue of traffic.
Sadly I didn't manage to snap a picture as I was driving. It was silver and left hand drive.
Doubt i'll ever see one again in the wild, but how rare are they? The valuation for GT1 these days seem to be anything from £2M - £10M?
If it was a genuine Strassenversion I think they made a couple with the 993 style front and 20 with the 996 style lights.
Fairly sure a PH'er has one in blue that's been on various channels (I seem to remember Tiff driving it on one) and said it was £10m worth.

I saw one last week under a car cover at a well known Porsche specialist with a “Do not photograph” sign on it. It was silver and on UK plates.
Might have been the same one. Can't imagine there's many in this country.

I've never understood this. Why no photos, will it melt?
Supposed to be 2 993 headlight cars, 20 with 996 lights, and one with bespoke lights to homologate the GT1 Evo that lives at the Porsche Museum. At least one racer was converted to road spec though and as far as I know all are LHD. Most were silver. The last one through a public auction fetched $6m in the mid 2010s, they usually get sold privately. Maybe $10m by now? That's about what the equivalent CLK-GTRs are up for.
There is a bloke in the UK with two of them.

I have seen the light metallic blue one at Reading after they repainted it. I have a feeling that this was originally yellow and if so it is the only GT1 I have ever seen on the road. That must be back in maybe 2005 in the South of France. I have seen two race car GT1's in a two different friends shops.

Correct, the yellow one originally from France was sold via Trofeo Cars.
Now it's Cobalt Blue and owned by FossilFurious.
Yes there was often one in silver (early car with fixed windows 993) that is/was owned by Harry Laventis, used to be at the 'ring and Spa on the Wheel torque days with their 288 Evoluzione and silver F50 on slicks.

Doesn't he own a silver one too now?

I can remember popping in to Donnington on the off chance when I was passing in the early 2000s and those three cars were having their own private trackday. Staggering considering the combined value now!

We shared the circuit with one at Spa in 2012
As can be seen from the pic, he had a minor off
I was there that day, I've got an almost identical pic!

I don't remember it having the red decals on at the time.

Isn't that the car that was sold to Australia?
