Needing attention:
Flat shift working on barrel rotation as load cell stopped working over Xmas, so dropping £500 from price for replacement + fitting
This is a huge spec car… Started life as a hillclimb car, went to Ireland as a race car, back to the mainland where I had it converted it to Tarmac Rally (and the reason it’s road legal).
I’m selling because my work takes me over the world at short notice so I find myself cancelling events. All work, no play… It’s just sat there, crying out to compete. I want to replace this with an Elise or Exige so I can just hop in and go for a drive around Yorkshire.
Yes, you can drive this on the road, but not slowly or in masses of comfort – remember Top Gear, Captain Slow in the race derived DBR9 on public roads….?
Test drives are verboten, I’m afraid. My insurance covers the car for me ONLY.
I’ll happily take you out and answer any questions if you are genuinely interested.
Open to sensible negotiation
Payment by bank transfer with both of us at a Santander bank of my choice. I will not give out my bank details over the "phone and I won"t be selling to anyone who I haven"t met in person. I"m sure you"ll understand why!
Cheers!
