Same with the limited build old 3200's although nice ones are a lot rarer
A mate of mine has his lovely 3200GTA for sale on eBay, spent 24k on it, and still no punters!

You must discount maintenance which is why i state up ftont not to see the GS as an investment. Its a given that these cars cost money to maintain. The analogy with Porsche is so many fall into the hands of owners who csn afford the purchase but struggle to pay the maintenanxe costs. So they skimp, they cut corners and the result is so many high mileage kbacketed dogs of Porsche Turbo cars. So although prices rise for a mezger-engined porsche it has to be offset by high maintenance costs for a £100k car.The real equation here in relation to TCO is whether keeping the GS in the tip top condition you mention will be less than the depreciation on the GT........

Yay for Med Blue.
My GS that I bought from Panicracing aka Paul is just north of 100k miles, however the impeccable history and the work Paul had had carried out by a specialist (ex Dick Lovett Swindon) in the last few years sort of allayed my fears of owning such a car.
I payed quite a bit less than £20k for her knowing that other than routine servicing all the expensive stuff has been done in the last 2-3000 miles,
clutch, all new suspension, all new brakes (inc calipers), new wheel bearings x4, new Michy sports all round etc etc.
Would I sell, which I am considering as I can't get comfortable because of my back issues.
However in a quandary with regard to price in the current market, maybe just wait until after Brexit and see what happens.
Just looked at that Dave he sounds a very interesting Guy and an impressive background too.Same with the limited build old 3200's although nice ones are a lot rarer

Err No!I'll potentially swap you a pair of GS seats for 4200 seats. Would prefer the GS seats in my 4200.
Ok I was only offering. I'll not bother next time. The seats aren't that important to me.Err No!
Actually the guy who sorted out the paint work for me (following my F**k up with a pressure washer) recommended a seat back and lower cushion bolster but I've forgotten where he said he got it from, best I text him.
And if you had two?
What is he selling it for?
Someone may have got themselves a bargain today. Sold within a day.
OK it may have issues or limited history but with low miles and sub £20k price has to be the keenest priced GS so far.
BTW he is also selling that £7.5k QP Andy posted this week, and is just a few miles from me.
