Just read in one of the UK P mags that Saga's green 911 was being auctioned (at Goodwwod I think) as there's obviously not going to be a 5th series of The Bridge. Proceeds going to charity....

The interior is nice but the whole right rear fender is full of body filler and there are paint bubbles on various other panels. To rectify these properly will cost many thousands of dollars on top o the purchase price. Was originally for sale at 310K+ so has dropped already..but in IMHO...needs to drop a whole lot more.

JWM Posted 22July, 2018 Report Share Posted 22July, 2018 A silver one in Sydney with less km (about 150 from memory) sat for a while at the same price before selling.

I have lost count of how many times I have been told point blank that the car is first paint and never been crashed only to discover after a detailed PPI that the exact opposite is true.

And I guess the buyer just walks away and thus no one pursues false advertising laws. Seems like the demographic of "used car dealers" can never climb out of the murky swamp . firstone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWC 'Roadworthy' for this, unless you pulled all the race bits off. But then your left with a 15K Boxrod & a pile of stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
