Supercharged 996 on Ebay

Not to mention the Hartech rebuild 1000 miles ago :thumbs:
 
Looked at this a few times now, has to be a decent buy at that money if all is good. Do like the idea, the SC kit is only a few K less than what the car is advertised at
 
Looks a bit rough around the edges - doesn't look like it's had any recent use (as he says) judging by the leaves in the engine bay and the rust/oxidisation on various parts - be good to see underneath as I suspect it will be quite rusty.

That spoiler looks horrible - an attempt to accommodate the supercharger and air filter by the look of things

Suspect that will cost a lot to bring up to scratch - could be an interesting project for someone - but at under £10k though I'd say.

9 years ago. It must have barely been run in, in all that time.
 
The ad's not clear whether Hartech rebuilt the engine - just that they replaced it. The cat-d rating and the tiptronic probably lower its desirability a notch or two.
 
MOT history is pretty appalling. Worth a read.
 
Some numpty has put the steering wheel on upside down :joker: clearly blinded by the suicide savannah interior :grin:
 
Good big grin project car as a keeper, but not if your looking to make any money on it long term. funny a few of the guys around my way have been chatting about that very car today and its potential as a fun project car for not bad money. :thumb:
 
Only 1500 miles since 2008. That's either wrong or a soon as you drive the list of jobs to be done will grow.
 
Ooh that looks like lots of Bhp per £... I imagine it would be a fun.. shame it's a tip :dont know:

Needs discs all round, has suspension of god knows what, needs all sorts of bushes, has an oil leak. List goes on.
