993 RS Clubsport for sale

Nice - very nice. If I was after a 993RS that would certainly be high on the enquiry list!

 

[vic cohen]

If thats the car i think u mean Paul £99 1/2 k very similar !

 

[clubsport]

They look like similar propositions don't they,,,although I prefer it I don't really think Riviera is worth 25% extra pricewise.

Precisely my thoughts. The red one looks good value.

Johnny, we both need to get a slight reality check here, £75k for a lhd 993RS!!!![]

 

[vic cohen]

Its the old story Guys .............perception and what people will pay ............IMO its even sillier withe older 2.7 rs i ve seen a couple that have been bought in the last 3 months for around £200k and they re not perfect or even close ..................FWI, i reckon for that money there should nt be even the tiniest fault .........................then a well known dealer told me this week....... 'if people want perfect cars they shud go to the factory and order new ones !'........................u decide , i m skint , no new toys coming to me right now anyway!

 

[clubsport]

Sorry Vic, hard to feel too sorry there will be no new toys on the horizon...you will have to enjoy the ones you have...should be a good year of events now they are both in such fine fettle []


What happened to your golf?

 

[johnny senna]

Paul, the price gives me hope mine might be worth something more than I paid for it, or at least cover the cost of the engine rebuild!

Vic, what Golf have you got? Is it knackered?

 

[vic cohen]

I HAD avery nice 95000 mile petrol turbo ,in Audi rs blue [honest] used for salty road days ,tried aquaplaning on the M1 last Thursday , no one else invloved ,only managed 180 degrees, then backwards into the Armco ........................described by the engineers yesterday as not only uneconomical to repair but unsafe too!!! Its a short whell base Golf now ...........................at least it was nt an orange one!! Feel pretty stupid ...............reminded me of an off, in similar weather, at Doni in the yellow one , backwards of the Craner curves ..................except there was just grass then ......................

 

[clubsport]

Vic, glad you are ok.....as you say could have been worse....just shows it pays to have a run around....I have an S4 with proper Quattro system for the wet, superb for piece of mind, they do a 4wd Golf too, maybe worth considering??...

I know the blue VW Jazz blue, a tad lighter than Audi's Nogaro blue,,,not that I am sad or anything [8|],

 

[johnny senna]

Blimey Vic, glad you are OK. I have only had one crash on the road.......a big tank slapper in an E30 M3 that finished in a big 180 and into the Armco, and it realy sh*t me up! Mind you, I also did a 360 in a Renault 5 Turbo when I was 18, but I didn't hit anything. Couldn't sleep that night for the adrenaline still cursing 'round me veins!
If you want a Golf, get one like mine. Plenty quick, brand new ones are cheap if imported (19K including a few extras for my 5 door).....and best of all, they have TC and full stability management!!!

and best of all, they have TC and full stability management!!!

They should be a legal requirement for all over 60s []

One GT1, 5 door on order , but it ll be a couple of years old as not used much , given the guy a top price to pay or less! not for Armco demolition anymore !
