£52K is a bargain if it's matching numbers.
Remember Ferry Man's restoration?

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........
It wasn’t actually a Carrera. They initially said it was, despite quoting a standard 911 chassis number and having what’s clearly not a Carrera engine. The only Carrera-ish thing was flared arches.
They corrected it part way through the auction.

It’s amazing how far this story has come, from Jamie’s original post of getting the car, his trials and tribulations, throughout the build, to the outcome of the recent sale with more up to date photographs and the twin spark heads.Gary71 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 01, 2024 8:17 pm Spoke to Jamie earlier, 912 is on its way to a new life

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........
And what a great advert it is.
Full of useful detail, devoid of wanky dealer waffle. Comes across as honest and knowledgeable.
Would that all dealers were like that guy.
