Just saw a full page advert for this in the new C&SC.

Never heard of Rove Cars and never seen this car before.

No doubt someone will know something.... :wink: :)

Anyone wanna start on its originality?

interesting - and a lovely looking car...

I've never heard of rove cars, funny that they'd have a 150k (assumption ) car for sale, looking at their current and previous inventory...

I just emailed Kenny for a price. I'm sure it'll be more like £200k :shock:

I'll also try & find out the VIN

Erm....

2.7RS on german export plates....

From his past sales:
Pictures from white 930 '89 taken AT the hairpin company

Green Rs from Gmund

I recognise the tile pattern from the picture of the red 964RS/L as well from somewhere....

Mmmm. I wonder who this gentleman might be.


Best regards,

The proprietor Kenny Schachter seems quite a character:

Hang on a minute: are the pictures on the first link being changed? I recall a set of full black hearts on the fuchs, german export plates and pictures in a garage with cars with german registration?

According to 'a well known specialist' "with a little time & effort in some minor areas this car could become one of the most original and factory correct 911RSH models in the world... an exceptional car"

I still can't afford it...! :x :evil: :roll:
