I don’t see the bowdens car coming up for sale for a very very long time. In fact until it’s a very old car and nobody remembers who Moffat was or what a falcon was and why anyone would race one. As an aside - the writing in that article is atrocious, full of errors and repetitions. Worse than the auto-ad writing bots on carsales. I can't see David Bowden ever parting with the Moffat P4. It holds a very special place in the family.... Dan, Chris and the rest of the brood used to get dropped off to school in that car..... Special indeed!

There was a black one in WA for $45k with similar kilometres on it that sat on Carsales for over a year, it disappeared a couple of months ago.

Usual nutty UK market vocabulary. You could order a tea tray or carrera tail on any 911 - lots of people did. For a while you had to have a tail. Then they became passe. I still prefer tail and will to my dying day. Dalai and symsy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a tad disappointing , eg extra tweaking in terms of gt2 spoiler, turbo upgrades, exhaust that when combined yields a net sum gain of a 0 to 100km/hr time of zero. I.e no better or worse off than a stock tipper in the 5 digit price range. Could it be that some of those goodies just work soooo much better with a tweaked tune file than the stock factory ECU file.

wilburforce Posted 8November, 2018 Report Share Posted 8November, 2018 My 79 SC was a UK car and had the "Super Sports" package - it had a turbo look but without the widebody from what I know. It had the Whale Tale, front spoiler, front fog lights, Bilsteins, and Fuchs with Platinum centres and a few other tasty treats.

Parked at Healey Factory yesterday with sign saying on hold on it. I believe 85k for around a year? Must have spent a bit to raise the price, or the rewrite of the ad wasn’t cheap!
