is it kosher this thing, sounds a bit sus about having a standard 3 door engine?

anyone shed any light, still looks hte balls

 

if its thae same one its a rep i think some one on here used to own it it was on auto trader some time back for sale it come to one of the berkshire meets as i was parked next to it in my s1 if it is the same car that is

Ps looks fooking lovely up close

 

Sounds about right, some of the teams used to have a press/publicity car that went along to all the races and allowed the public to get closer to the race cars, although they were not the race cars, if you get what i mean. LOL

 

think this has been around for ages and prices has gone up aswell

 

Its the press car.. like the B reg data post series one on track at national day was the press car.

It is genuine

 

Was on turbosport a while ago for 10k, a dealer that uses turbosport a lot bought it and it's been up for 16k ever since............

 

If this is the one from Fleet near me, a motor trader named Guy owned/owns it.

It's standard apart from a side exit exhaust, stripped interior and the coachwork. It's a tidy old car

It was used as a press car for the Kaliber team hence the low mileage

 

All pretty much correct.It is my car and it is genuine.

The price did indeed go up due to it being valued by the RSOC at pretty close to what it's up for now.

The fact is that this is a one off car.There are no more like this.It has a great history and provenance and was driven by Andy Rouse and Guy Edwards when it was owned by the Kaliber team.I spoke to Andy Rouse about it recently and he remembered it well.As did the fellers at David Price Racing who built it up for Guiness back in the day.

I realise that it is a lot of money for a 3dr,but it's not just any old 3dr.plus it's only done 23,000 miles.Luckily for me I was in a position to be able to buy it when it was for sale last time.It's very hard to put a value on it as it's really worth whatever someone wants to pay.I don't mind sitting on it for as long as it takes.I drive it when I feel like it and it's nice to have in the garage,plus my 2 year old son is crazy about it !

 

Good lad Gmac regardless what you do keep the passion alive with the young ones.

COSWHAT? I hear them say
lol

Me being 23 and all that

 

Saw that in the Trader,it looks very nice and is a nice piece of motorsport history
dont spose it will ever lose money as one off
will make a good buy for someone who isn't shy

lol


seen this car at rs show at beaulieu show,

genuine press car, but not many 500 bits on there,

nice low milage three door with a bit of a twist,

i only buy real one lol

 

so what your saying is its a real one <> ? do tell us all more ..

 

well it is a real rouse used press car,

but whot i mean is i am only interested in touring cars,


whot would you do with it?

it can not be raced, as its a road car with a alloy cage in it, and has no race parts on it,

as a road car, it has no rear seats, and apart from the paint/ 500 bumpers/rear spoilers looks like any other three door which has been striped for track days,

so again, as far as i know its a real ex press car which andy rouse may have used,

when i see him in a couple of weeks i will ask him if he remembers any info on this car, but again all looks correct,

p.s just because rouse drove it does not make it worth any more lol

if he used it in a race it would have been a different story,

gotta agree with this statement
