OK I bought this only a month ago, it was my dream car, something I have always wanted since I was a kid. But it's just not for
me
The reason I don't want it is for two reasons, the first I have to sit in a lot of traffic and its killing my left leg from the clutch, bit more importantly, it attracts far too much attention to me / it.
Open to sensible offers and maybe part exchange for something of similar value, give or take a bit. Somewhere between 11-12k, I only want to recoup my costs.
It's a 1986 (but on priivate plate) 3.2 carrera, but has had replacement body wings etc from a 964, has the 964 cup alloys, leather electric seats, 85,000 miles, full mot, 6 months tax, remote central locking.
I really am sad about it going as I have wanted one all my life. But I have to be practical.

Hi, yes there is a fair bit of service history, although it is not complete.
I do not have any pictures of the interior at the moment but can get some.
The badge on the back says RS but obviously it isnt. One of the previous owners was making the back look like an RS with the rear spoiler having split twin exhaust exits, rather than one which carrera and carrera 2's have. It is identical to a Carrera 2 (964)
The electric aero works too.
Are you looking to buy or part ex? I am not a dealer, but would like to know what you have if you are doing a px. I still want something quick.
I attach all the pictures I have.

As promised, some more piccy's.
I put the spoiler up for some nice shots of her in all her glory.
The steering wheel is black, it just looks a funny colour in the shot where the sun was shining.
Same here with the dash.
Nice elctric leathers
Spoiler up
And one from the side
Hope these work :s

Ahhh the Integrale days, aww I miss her.
Don't expect this car to perform like a tuned grale, its just not the same.
I am open to sensible cash offers.
Come talk to me in email if you like. andybooth28@hotmail.com

Just thought I would list some of the cars at the top of my list I would like.
If anyone has one of these to do a deal, let me know.
Lotus Elise
Escort Cosworth
Mitsu Evo 4
Civic Type R
M3 Evo
RB5
For the other people that replied about other cars, sorry for the delay, I would rather try to get one of these first, failing that, maybe then we can talk.
If you got cash come talk to me, Im sure we can sort out a good deal

Well I still have the car atm. Had much interest but nothing actually happened.
I am now in two minds about whether to keep the car now, it has grown on me
If someone still comes up with a sensible offer I will probably take it for now, but this car is addictive. My buldging left calf muscle is now prepared for a carrera clutch

Gastro,
It's heavy compared to a modern car. I had a 1999 Jeep wrangler before. Its much heavier than that. Carrera's do not have hydrolic clutches, they are controled via cables.
