Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

[flat6]

Thanks Ian I'm really looking forward to it. I do like Guards Red so that was a bonus as many of them come in a 'safe' grey metallic or silver or black. The Mezger engine is not prone to IMS (not sure if it has an IMS) Have just been reading that those engines rarely let go but if one does the retail price is £40K or with an engine to exchange, £20K[:-] Scary!!!! Will update the transmission for you and Steve and Rocket

ORIGINAL: spyderwhite My ims on my 2003 986s went at just under 13k.

That's a bit of a shock, did you get any warnings e.g. Oil leak, noise or rev counter needle flutter. Did you damage the engine or discover it on time?

no warnings,owned from new so properly warmed up every time etc.started car one morning and the engine lunched itself,car never drunk oil also

 

[spyderwhite]

i would strongly advise any one with a pre 2006 build 986/7 or 996/7 to upgrade the ims as at least with bore scoring you get warning

ORIGINAL: Fire_2 anyone ever had a price on the red seat inserts for the gt3rs (sport bucket seats) really fancy a set to go with the gt3 harness's I'm looking at... any ideas or worth getting some covers made up myself?

some one in the USA did it was silly money. was about £3k lol

Try Transcal in Livingston, just google them and site will come up, I've seen some of there work and it is stunning what they can do Kenny Spyder

 

[MrDemon]

For the same money you can upgrade to 6 pots at the front , a much wiser way to spend some cash imo

Its nice, but why hasn't it been snapped up yet?!

 

[tyinsky]

It has only been on sale about week hasn't it? And over Easter so availability for viewings probably difficult if people are away etc. Looks a really nice car.

Only you can answer that one as a potential spyderman in waiting []

 

[philnotts99]

Its been for sale about 2 weeks. Good Spyders normall sell in days....

 

[flat6]

Hi Phil It's hard to judge a Spyder by days or weeks on sale. The market is small and some cars might not have what the small handful of buyers at a given point in time are looking for. If you try to analyse why the car is not for someone else you will tie yourself in knots[] You also have to be shrewd too. Some cars are actually a better buy with a bit of thought than they originally look. OK, so we will give you 4 weeks to find a car and then you will be demoted from the Spyderman list[] Just joking Dyllan, you have until 4 weeks after your Poole build completes I'm sure clubsport will be swooping in on a few more Spyders yet[]

Good Spyders may normally sell in days [&o] (your research) but GREAT Spyders usually sell within 4/5 weeks personal experience [][8D] Aqua Blue ones in hours []

It sounds to me it hasn't been looked after!curbed wheel on a £40k car !You would have that fixed before sale or not curbed it in the first place ,so what other horrors lie in wait

Dyllan, you have until 4 weeks after your Poole build completes

Just a gut feeling i have, there is something wrong there. Plus he could of spelt the colour correctly

 

[MrDemon]

private sales above 20k are hard, every one wants finance or PCP 911V would have had this sold by now, cash sales is a ultra small market. for me, I don't like red dials lol but bar that it looks great.
