Stephen Tinker Posted 22August, 2020 Report Share Posted 22August, 2020 I'll bet that poor engine has been started and stopped a million times moving it from trailer to showroom to trailer to display area - without even being warmed up and driven properly. I wonder what the maintenance history shows - if its got one after 20 years of being a pimp machine MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skidmarks Posted 12September, 2020 Report Share Posted 12September, 2020 If you’ve just sold a Mk1, there could be regret in the air ...

Skidmarks Posted 12September, 2020 Report Share Posted 12September, 2020 The concept. Assemble one of each GT3 from 1999 to 2010. Drive them. Photograph them. Talk about them and then write it up. Not your normal road test but a day of driving and reflecting as enthusiasts. Already arranged and available are:- MK1 GT3 996 GT3RS 997.1 GT3RS 997.2 GT3RS So, we need:- 996.2 GT3 997.1 GT3 997.2 GT3 and if we can get one 997.2 GT3 4.0 Could be fun.

We have the wine supply sponsor sown up. I seriously need to vent on track. Sounds like it might be a 2 day event. Will take some organising but if the interest is there ...
