Hi there -

There's a very nice looking black 968 coupe a mile from where I am (7 miles east of Nottingham City)
In his drive there's an oldish 944, and a very recently acquired 911 - which is obviously the reason for the 968 sale.

I can call round and ask the guy for details if its of iany interest to you?

I also know of a completely sorted red 968 Club Sport that featured in a big 911 & PC world article.

Cheers
Rich


Cheers for the offer, if the 968 was a bargain I might be interested in it but black isn't one of my favourite colours either, I know I'm being picky but if I don't find the car I want I will just wait. The red 968 clubsport sounds like one I was offered months ago but the mileage and price put me off, a very nice car but I didn't think it was worth 2 good turbo's.

Another thing to consider is that the later (250bhp) turbos came with bigger brakes and, if fitted with the M030 option, thicker ARB's and adjustable (rebuildable) Koni shocks. The bigger brakes are worth having; mine are fitted with EBC reds, ATE Super Blue racing fluid and have braided hoses but OEM disks. I do not get any fade even during a track day.[/quote]

And a LSD. I know what TWG gave for that 968 and for that money I would have bought it from the previous owner but I think I would have been the 10th owner and the price TWG wanted didn't tempt me.
