I need to make a fairly quick sale of my Tommi Mak. It is Silver in excellent condition and has been thoroughly cherised. (SUL and Octane Booster every fill).
It has now done 5,500 miles, brought new in October, and I will accept £24,500

I live in Reading and will part with the car very quickly, sorry but something more excting awaits!!!

Please let me know if you wish to buy. email sryan@alphablox.com

What's more exciting then a scooby !

 

Good question!

Have had an Sti V. Great Fun!..

Have Tommi Mak. Brilliant car!!..

Now for something that goes RUF!!! and 5ooBHP!!!

 

I am not worthy!

 

what car u getting??

 

Matt nor am I,.. but hey what the hell. 0-100 kmh 3.6 secs, 0-200 kmh 11.4!!!, and all with 4WD

Ouch!

 

I would take a guess at a Ruf Porsche

 

Yep that's the one. A Ruf 993 Porsche Turbo R. Drove it yesterday, and it's completely mad. Having said that it is very easy to drive and well behaved. Top speed 204 MPH!

Simon

 

Am I going mad? 24,500 for this car, seems very cheap to me!

 

i was offered same spec car from warrender 6 months ago for £24,000 brand spanking!

 

That's strange??? Then why have I just had an email from them saying that they are interested in buying my car????

 

Sale to be completed tomorrow @ £23,250. OUCH!!!

What a waste!

Simon

 

£1,250 off your asking price, im surprised u did so well!. warrander had two just like yours for months, they couldnt get rid of them brand new for £24,000! I ended up getting a st15 coupe for £19,000 4k on the clock (not from warrender)

 

Very, very jealous... If you don't mind me asking Simon what sort of ballpark figure did you pay for the Ruf and where from - I'm presuming its a LHD import? IS it a Ruf tuned Turbo 4 or their own turbo system onto a Carrera 4? Sorry for all the questions - 993 Turbo 4 has been the car I would like when I can afford a 3rd car.
Have fun
David

 

Thanks David

It is actually a LHD 993 Turbo 4 with Ruf conversion. The work has been carried out by Ruf HQ in Germany and is an engine, brake and suspension conversion. i.e. Still looks like standard T4. Wow though when you start the thing up!!! Oh my god, what a noise.

I must admit the ride is exceptionally smooth and the car has all the trimmings: climate control, cruise, on-board computer, Sat Nav, immense stereo, Teckart dials and interior bits.

All in all amazing value with complete history, and I am due to meet the owner this weekend as well.

My fingers are crossed for tomorrow as that is the pick up date.

Oh and one last thing, price: I'll tell you once I have the grubby thing in my hands!!

Simon

BTW Anyone here got S300 WRX??

 

A RUF loony car eh

For anyone interested have a look at

 

Simon - sounds fantastic - and I guess by now you are spending every spare moment out driving it with a big grin on your face! Let us know how it is.
Cheers
David

 

Simon..

Will you be able to reinact Steffan(?) at the Ring though( )?

James

 

Has anyone got a trip planned to 'The Ring' this year? Never been, want to go. Any one else up for it? I think your Ruf 993 could do with a shake down!

Murf

 

Simon - I'm jealous

Post some pictures when you get it..

Murf - there is a trip to the Ring in a couple of weeks, but I think you will struggle now to get hotel / ferry crossings booked because it is over the Easter weekend.
Do some searches and you should find details in the 'International' section.

Cheers
Chris

 

Thanks all.

The car is Magnificent!!!!!! Just mind boggling!!!!! It has been a bit lively a couple of times in the wet, but I suppose that's what you expect even with 4WD.

I am endeavouring to get along to the EVO meet at Twyford this coming Saturday 8th (Bird in Hand), regular Scooby meeting place, if anyone is interested in having a look.

It does not have any of the Ruf exterior pieces on it, quite low key, that's if you can have a low key 993 Turbo, but has Techart interior bits and pieces. Sound kind of gives it away though!!!!!!!!!!!

Has H&S suspension as well which means it sits quite low and not much roll.

Anyway will keep you informed of progress.

James - I think Steffan is in just slightly a different league to me, maybe it's his white socks and loafers that do it!

Thanks

Simon

 

Sorry, screwed up. The 8th is the Sunday! 12 midday at the Bird in Hand.
