Isn't that quite pricey at that mileage?
I know they are a limited and sought after model, but there are less Spec D's out there.

Besides the terrible advert and highish miles is 10,995 not really cheap for an RB320?

You have to ask yourself why would you advertise such a specialist vehicle on Gumtree? Apart from the Porsche engine and transfer box (unknown source) this vehicle seems to be pretty standard! Can anyone shed any light on the electro magnetic dampers?

It's cheap for an RB320, but with those miles i'd say it's pretty sensibly priced, i'd wager a lot of those miles are motorway so probably not been caned all it's life, seems not to have a clue what he's talking about though.

Possibly but the buyer does state the engine has been rebuilt. They only mention gaskets so either it's blown or they have failed to mention it was forged at the same time. With such a dodgy advert though it's hard to know. Is a fair price though!
