3k can easily be eaten up, brakes tyres, service.... gone.

£3k is a clutch and that has been done on Matts car, bit of a no brainer if you want a GS

Even 12,000 miles away this is a premium GS get it and enjoy our world.
I can highly recommend Carr's at Marsh Barton as they recovered my 360 Modena from my home in Weston super Mare when one of the engine ECU's died.
Their Service Manager Mark is a top guy to deal with and being a tech myself I was happy to pay them to keep my Ferrari history complete.
From experience it's a smaller war chest needed to keep a 4200/GS in fine fettle plus all the fine advice and friendship on here by true enthusiasts is Free
Welcome to our world.

At the £27k budget I'd be going for the red GS that Richard Grace has for sale. And it'll be more fun than an early GranTourismo or Bentley GT. Or a nice 997, but it would have to me the mark 2 version.

Yep Damos car is excellent and nearer your budget. As others have said if you can spend 27k you can spend 30k on a sorted car. Both of them are that, new clutch on Dickys car in a stunning colour and matts with recent full respray. As they used to say on Cilla's "Blind Date", the choice is yours!

Elliot -welcome to the adventure.

Both cars are at the top of their game. Matt and I are both fussy bar stewards. Whichever car you go for will look after you in the coming years.

Mine is the red car at Dicky's and has been a very faithful and loved companion for 5 years. But to keep it in balance Matt's car is a beaut and has equal levels of love and attention lavished on her.

Neither will disappoint.

Looks like you are sorted with either of these cars. You won't go wrong with either.
Matt is meticulous and I know Richard Grace will only sell exceptional examples.
I guess it will come down to colour preferences.

Any interest to you Elliot ?
