Lebro Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Looks way to cheap to be true ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don H. Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Looks way to cheap to be true ? Well, it does have 7+ days left to run. But it looks like there's no reserve on the car, so who knows where it'll go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Geko Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 CTC 70916 looks very much like a 4A - on paper at least. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stuart Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 CTC 70916 looks very much like a 4A - on paper at least. Looks like a distinct bitsa,4a chassis number and year but floor handbrake and metal dash,though no air vents.4a "H" frame and engine rocker breather. Make of that what you will. Stuart.

stillp Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 For some reason, when I look at that 'works replica' I keep thinking of all the problems McMuttley has had. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stillp Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Good luck! Stuart. Thanks Stuart, I don't really need another one, but if I did I'd be looking for one that hadn't been molested/modified. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Red 6 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Most of it is plastic so probably would not be eligible for any competitions, but cheap to repair when pranged, and probably way too loud for a track day as those 45's give a hell o suck and make a big noise in doing so. Mind you I am tempted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelH Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 If the chassis and inner shell of the car are solid then everything else is relatively easy to sort and it might be a really good buy Michael Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monty Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 A beautiful looking 'rally replica' type TR4 fully restored with only 10 miles on it sold today @ auction for £25500 + commission! That's close to a £30k purchase price for the new owner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
