    My new GT3 that some of you may know..

    Picked this GT3 up last week for just over £500, not a bad deal imo. Alot of you may remember it from it's previous owner(s), but I hope to restore it to it's former glory. It needs the wheels painting or changing (I have Coupe 20v Turbos to go on) and also the O/S rear quarter needs doing. I also have a full Abarth Kit off my old GT to go on once I can afford to get it painted. The car is now on 107,000 chassis mileage, and really does pull lovely for it's age. It's my third GT now, and definitely the most funnest to drive From reading the old spec list, I believe it's seb2 chipped with a FMIC, and also the private plate is still on the vehicle. Opinion/Slates are all welcome

    I always liked this car in its prime.

    How about lower profile tyres?

    Funny how the intercooler is still pissed after all this time.

    You have exactly the same opinion as me, lol. It is in fact a carbon wrapped bonnet, which really does let the car down, as do the wheels. Lovely wheels, but the colour is terrible.

    Yes the car was accident damaged but was luckily just bolt on parts, I have checked and chassis legs etc are all pukka (this was the first thing I checked when I viewed it)

    I'm pretty sure I'm the 11th, which does seem quite high but it does work out at an owner every 14 months or around that, so I guess isn't that bad when you consider it's been sold quite a few times within the past 2 years. I'm keeping it for a while now and putting a bit of cash into it, it's clear on the register and is a good shell to build on, so there's no reason not to
