A deal list price for a stock '97 version would come to around £650 pre tax, It doesnt have much tax and not sure no the fuel it has in it, it depends how much you calue the modifications, do you think the modifications are worth £800 to you? (rounded £650 to £700 to cover fuel and remaining tax value).

If you think they're worth that much to you then go for it

i cant say thaey are to be honest, i think he's just being greedy with it...no it dont have much tax and i have had a look at that price thingy,...think hes taking the dogs dodo's a tad
 
If you intended to do the same with a stock good condition GT3 then you would probably spend £900 and get better bodywork :rolleyes:

Some people are dreamers, or completely ignorant to whats happening with prices, there was another GT3 near that one on the listings that sold for less with a similar spec and pretty much perfect paint and sold for £150 less (and that was taxed and MOTed I think)

forget all the bits&pieces& the bells&whistles;) check out the engine. now there are more guys on here will tell you these things have been thrashed to an inch of their life:eek: anyone tells you different are not telling the truth:D
its an old car & i can never understand how some of these turbos sell for silly money:eek: obviously check the turbo itself, the manifolds are usually cracked. best advise i can give you...take someone along with you who knows their stuff about gt,s....there are guys on here who are experts compared to me when giving advise about the gt,s.....but its a buyers market at the moment(y).....best of luck
