996 Turbo
 
Can’t believe I’m writing this as I’m really still in two minds about selling, the only reason is I hardly use the car and it really is a waste of an amazing car.

03 seal grey 996 turbo with 32000 miles
Last serviced 2000 miles ago by Porsche Edinburgh, including a plug change and brake service.
FPSH, SAT NAV, Alacantara roof lining, HID lights full option spec list on request.

I’ve owned the car for under two years and added to the already impressive spec list, which brings the car up to around 550 BHP.

Here is a list of the mods done on top of the already high spec standard car, which would add up to over 25k’s worth without fitting.

GT2 front bumper
Mashaw GT2 rear
6pot 375mm Front brakes
6pot 375mm Rear brakes
19" BBS LM's with ps2 tires
K24 turbos
Bell cored coolers
Forge diverter valves
Up rated intake pipe work

Sasch motorsport clutch
Silicone boost hoses
Remap
Miltek exhaust and manifolds
997 GT3 short shift
GT3 roll bars
Adjustable rose jointed drop links front and rear
Moton Clubsports with up rated top mounts


As i said above im not sure on selling so if I dont get close to the asking price of 37500 it wont be going anywhere.

Stunning neil,whats next ?

Porkie 14-10-2010 09:20 PM

wicked car mate. Good luck with sale!!!

must get around to selling mine as well! :oops:

great value and superbly modified car you have there. PROPER.

Porkie 14-10-2010 09:22 PM

I have my standard 4 pot brakes if it helps? might be better pulling few nice bits off it and getting back on std rims and brakes etc etc.

modded Porsches take ages to sell sometimes.

NEIL A 14-10-2010 09:27 PM

Thanks Lee i still have all the standard parts bar bumpers,turbos and wheels. Im still not sure about selling so not going to start switching parts yet but know what you mean about modded Pork. I think the way my car has been done with quality parts and not too in your face may help.

Kev to be honest mate im not too sure , thinking of going down to one car some just something decent and sensible. May look into buying a flat to rent out, must be getting old and boring or something :cry:. On the other hand i may buy the turbos my mate is selling and put it up to nearer 800bhp, this is why ive decided to put it upforsale just now before it gets stupid.

KSA-Cossie 14-10-2010 09:31 PM

Chop ? Im not bloody chop lol

NEIL A 14-10-2010 09:39 PM

Haha sorry Kev :cry::cry: still north of the bridge :)

Without a doubt the best car i have ever and likely will ever own .

xr2john 15-10-2010 01:03 AM

That is stunning mate. Don't think I could sell it if it was mine but good luck all the same

jonny s2 15-10-2010 06:10 AM

STUNNING!
thats just a dream machine

JonnyBravo 15-10-2010 06:20 AM

Immense.

Such a nice looking car, good luck with the sale.

NEIL A 15-10-2010 06:52 AM

Prov sold :)

I sent the guy who bought my old suspension an email yesterday ,as he loved my car when he came to pick the shocks up and he wants to arange a PPI as soon as i get home from work.

carlo 15-10-2010 07:34 AM

That was quick mate ! i have a feeling you will end up with another mint escos when you get the money in your hand for this :DD:

Karl 3dr 15-10-2010 07:46 AM

Lovely car, good luck with the sale!! :king:

Mike C 15-10-2010 07:47 AM

Great spec and best colour. Real tool.

NEIL A 15-10-2010 07:58 AM

Carlo i would never go as far with another cosworth as i did before, unless it was something crazy built by Andy. Just dont do enough car stuff these days to justify having 40K sitting in the garage to use when its nice out.

carlo 15-10-2010 08:02 AM

I know what you mean mate but a proper mint escos would be better suited in your garage nothing too crazy :DD:

NEIL A 15-10-2010 08:09 AM

Na i think if anything it would be a RS4 or Range Rover sport.
This did catch my eye earlyer though http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2137390.htm

carlo 15-10-2010 08:15 AM

rs4 is nice as well mate so is that lotus :DD:

NEIL A 15-10-2010 07:54 PM

B1G_RST 16-10-2010 07:59 AM

neil keep this, its stunning!

NEIL A 16-10-2010 07:36 PM

Thanks Sean but its just a waste of a car for all the use i give it, money better spent on my house and other stuff. You should maybe be hoping it does sell :)

Cossierick 16-10-2010 08:04 PM

Dont do it, i loved my cossiers but the porka to me was my dream, it boke my heat to sell but needs must .

I understand the hardly using it, supose the only sugestion i can say is , get the fooker used then.

AJC 19-10-2010 07:07 PM

forgot how nice this car was

looks lovely, as its ricks

NEIL A 19-10-2010 07:57 PM

Cheers Andy :DD:
Its now looking exactly how i want it with the brakes and wheels just being done, and the ride and stance on the new suspension sets it off.

twoblacklines 20-10-2010 07:49 PM

Epic car mate.

Love these but hate the interior compared to the 997.

Ironically i dont like the exterior looks of the 997 turbo, looks too overdone!

DS81 22-10-2010 09:54 AM

Looks Amazing Neil, I have never seen it on the road! hence the reason you are selling it due to lack of use! You will be back in an old cossie before you know it :cry:

Jon(M600BHP) 25-10-2010 06:46 PM

Has it sold mate?

NEIL A 25-10-2010 08:25 PM

No Jon i havent advertised it anywhere realy , just put it up on here as i was bored at work one night.
I do have someone wanting to arange an inspection on it next week.
If he does not come through i will be putting it on pistonheads.

Jon(M600BHP) 26-10-2010 04:34 PM

Sweet car mate, ive been toying with getting one after i get shut of the Evo

NEIL A 26-10-2010 06:52 PM

Thanks Jon they realy are awsome cars , probably the best car i will ever own but as i said above I just dont use it enough so its a waste of a nice car.

Do you end up selling the Monte or just down spec it ?

Portugal 27-10-2010 10:21 AM

someone get this car! :bat:

Jon(M600BHP) 27-10-2010 05:30 PM

Just collecting the bits to put the Monte back together(nothing to lairy) should be back on the road for next years shows

NEIL A 15-11-2010 09:21 PM

Deposit held :)

RWD_cossie_wil 15-11-2010 09:26 PM
