Who are Autorapide?

Post by IanM »

As they advertised a 911 for sale that I’m interested, I’ve been trying to contact them but unfortunately their phone and mobile are always on voice mail and they don’t return any calls nor answer any emails at all! Have they closed down or what? :?

I'd persist a little longer. If only because of the fuel tank.... :roll:

Was quite a popular mod 'in the day' - much as sticking GT3 Aerokit to a modern 911 is.

The tank is very interesting - would love to know it's COA build options list 8-) Would also be interested to see if the pedal box is original or replaced with something 'hotter'.

Is it me or do the carpets look a LOT cleaner than the rest of the car?

At £50k - how much on top to make it really nice??!?

What years did they have twin heating control levers ?

Should the bonnet have 2 luggage lights?

Engine bay should be body colour.

I understood that all UK ordered cars had a sunroof, (not 100% sure) so it might be a south african car.
