Where does it show that the reserve hasn't been reached ?

It's a bit of a strange feature, but when the reserve is reached the title of the auction changes to "No Reserve: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" It seems to work though as people know the sale is on and I think it motivates the bidders. But I'm certainly no auction expert!

It doesn't appear to do that on BaT so, looks like CC isn't quite an exact copy!

No, the only cars of the RS family to come from the factory with strut mounts in place were the RSRs, although I'm sure a customer could spec this on a 'regular' RS if they wished. The previous owner, Jack Logan, used this car a lot and I suspect it was he who added the strut brace. It's a worthwhile addition, but not a hard one to remove if that was the wish of the new owner.

Looks a sensible bet if you fancy a 964 and don’t mind having an extra diff:

Decided that it's time for a change in the Ridgway car world, so have decided to put my 997.1 GT3 CS for sale through Collecting Cars. Had a great set of photos take on Epsom Downs...

Not really sure Feroz. Just decided that I needed to clear the way before seriously thinking. Might contemplate an Exige or Evora, or maybe something older. Had a pax ride in a carb'd 308 which was nice. Or maybe scratch an alfa itch!

The GT3 has been brilliant and done exactly what I wanted of it.

Do they take the pics for you? At a cost I guess. If I ever get my finger out, which I probably won’t, I’ll stick my 964 on there.

‘ The level of work was so high that when the car was imported to the UK in 2018 it was actually registered as a 1955 Porsche Historic vehicle after inspection by the DVLA.’

How’s that work then?
