Afraid not chaps - am selling my GT3RS too ... Mk2 Jag to stay, 3 Lambrettas and 2 Vespas also to stay. Too many toys and two large building projects (one for business premises and one for home). Am a bit gutted but needs must and I will replace them both at some stage. Sold my Karmann Ghia and VFR400R years ago for the same reasons. Target(s) once this is all over is a 964RS (as long as the prices slow down) and a Mk1 Lotus Exige in chrome orange or scandal green. 2015 I hope ...

Love it. The silver with tan works really well. Wish I had the funds as I'd love an A. Good luck with the sale.

Really great price, shouldnt it be starting with a 3?

Looks like a cracker with a lovely 'old aeroplane' feel to that interior! Someone's going to be very happy, but..replica? What is it with people?..sheesh.

964RS will be a nice consolation, but youre not wrong about the prices..and gutting to think they were £25k not too long ago.

Oh dear. Sad to see it go! Where did you take the photos? I can't think of anyway in Bromley like that.

Sad day indeed, I sold mine to fund a new business so needs must, I empathize with you my friend,

Like you had to many toys and my A was the most expensive so it was the first to go.

I bought a lotus Elise S1, absolutely love it, you will the love the Exige in burnt orange, I am a real Lotus fan now, wish I had bought one years ago.

Good luck with the sale, that should be snapped up at that price.

I've had 5 Elises - starting with a S1 now have a Mk 2 Supercharged, fantastic cars - we've been across Europe to the Mille Miglia and over the Alps in it a few times as well as Sunday afternoon jaunts over the Yorkshire moors. Only thing is, dare I say, I think I prefer it to my 356A!

I think I am with you, although I have had Porsche for 20yrs, and only had the Loti for 1, so time will tell.

Very sad news

I am sure that the for sale price should start with a 3

Unless of course it is for a quick sale?

We would all be interested to know how this progresses.

All the best and good luck
