Peter T Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 What is the total milage on this car? Watch This Space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickie Normuss Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Peter NO you have enough toys, or are hoping to have one that will see daylight Seek forgiveness, not permission.

Richard Ince Posted January 26, 2005 Author Share Posted January 26, 2005 No real idea as to mileage. Engine has been rebuilt four times by Minister so this would indicate about 12K - 15K miles. Mileage really not important as car has had two major stripdowns replacing wearing parts. Last rebuild (same time as engine) replaced Front discs. Hubs also updated (Front - new uprated bearings and shafts Rear - new bearings) Edited by - Richard Ince on 26 Jan 2005 16:03:38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Ince Posted January 28, 2005 Author Share Posted January 28, 2005 Thanks to those of you who have asked for photos. Unfortunatly I do not appear to have any recent photos showing all the latest things I have added to the car. The car is stored at Tranzpower in Chesterfield which is nowhere near where I live so I have aranged for some new photos to be taken. I will email and post these on Tuesday/Wednesday next week. Please mail me If anyone else wants to see these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 does the SR8 have a passenger seat Richard? We all want a ride. Failing that, we'll all want a go! Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Ince Posted January 29, 2005 Author Share Posted January 29, 2005 Yes has a second seat if you dare sit in it. 😬 Hoping to take it to the Ring March 7th/8th if the car is built in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 excellent! I never got in the SR3, just the R500 with you are curb! can't make the ring tho'! Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 BTW Richard, do you have any hints on how to buy a radical?? I am thinking of trying to find a road legal SR4. Ta Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murph7355 Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 No 7 left after this Richard? Good luck with the SR8 and hopefully catch up with you at a track day or something at some point in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Sullivan Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Richard, can you do my yellow 993RS (lookalike) in part-ex? It can be demo'd at the Ring in March. Not as nimble as the R500, but it'll outperform your Turbo. (In the right hands) Have a BTTT on me 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 I can't understand why this car hasn't sold ! It is the best R500 out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifty Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 The best and the fastest ...or was that the drivers 🤔 *tongue* In all seriousness, Richard's cars are maintained immaculately so if you're in the market for a race car of this sort of standing you won't find a better one or a better price *thumbup* (If only I had the cash ☹️) Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
