Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Start at £60K and you may be in with a chance -see Circuit Driver .com ads and visit www.911rs.de (Thomas & Schmitz, + do a Google search. Melv

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Melv 40k is a good price for a 2000/01 spec cup car as Porsche GB no longer allow them to race in the Carrera Cup championship and with a few cars around with cash ready you can get a good deal. I have looked at 3 cars this week that fit into this price range at TECH 9 Motorsport. 60k will buy you a 2002 spec car. Thanks for the link pal >> Edited by Speedy7 on Saturday 25th January 18:35

POST 4Original post

Speedy - £40k should buy you a good one - have you tried Parr (parr-uk.com)...Paul Robe's usually has several for sale, Eurotech had about 4 up for grabs several months ago too and Tech-9 might be worth a try

POST 5Original post

ooops! Didn't realize u wanted an old car. ;-) Mel

POST 6Original post

Autosport classifieds or racecar.co.uk cars for sale, perhaps? Good luck. I love the idea of na ex-racer for 40k... Cheers Domster

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys, Got a car. Thanks for your help. Tony >> Edited by Speedy7 on Tuesday 28th January 13:17

POST 9Original post

Speedy, please tell us more!! I am curious - what are the major differences between the ex Cup cars and a road GT3? Can the Cup cars be made road legal? Are they reliable for "normal" use (assuming of course that one can live with racing clutches, uncomfortable kevlar seats and light-weight fly wheels in traffic)? It would seem that 40k seems a bargain compared to the current value of road GT3s, which seem to start at 50k for LHD ones and 60k for RHD.

POST 10Original post

LOL, speedy by name... So where did you get it from... what did you pay, if you can share the info? Think it's a good choice myself. Cheers Domst

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys, I got a very good deal on the car ?? less than I wanted to pay but the car needs some money spending on it to upgrade to run in GT's - gearbox mods, fuel tank mods, reworked suspension etc all in all an extra 20k. Domster you featured my Marcos a couple of weeks ago I sold it this week and it was a bargin it could be raced in GT's or even used as a very fast track day tool. Back to the CUP car no you can not road reg them as Porsche will not allow. Anyone wants to be keep informed of the seasons progress please e-mail me. Cheers Tony

POST 12Original post

Cheers for the info Tony, sounds great. Your old Marcos looked amazing as well. Hope that went to a good home. I'm sure a friendly MoT station would let me put plates on it if I asked them nicely in hard currency Would have been tempted if not going down the path of Ultimadom. ATB Domster

POST 13Original post

I would be real suprised if you could not get a GT3 cup car through SVA with a little modification. Doing it that way would circumvent Porsche completely. Anyone know if that's possible? BTW ex Tim Harvey car was on QV500.com @ £45k

POST 14Original post

Speedy, you forgot to answer the US$64,000 question - howe much did you pay and from where?

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yes the Marcos did go to a good home and I should be back in the drivers seat of the car at the Willhire later this year. The big question on the 996 GT3 ??????????? well it came as a 99 spec car up dated to 2001 spec with a new shell and in impeccable condition with very little use. It will need money spending on the car to bring up to GT spec but I paid 39000.00 pounds from a team (very good deal and I am very happy) but they will make money looking after the car and selling the 2nd seat to a driver. Tony

POST 16Original post

Nice one....seriously tempting at that money....
