IMO, the interior would look a lot better with red piping.

Hold on a min..Thats the one I posted as being at Heathrow diesel.......Its the odd seat stitching that gives it away....Its been for sale at one dealer or another for 6 months or so........Are Sterlings the same dealer...Think Dem mentioned that they were once..Its up for 24995 with them.

It looks nice but it is a bit expensive for a 54 plate, 25k would get you into an 06 car/55 plate i bet.

 

[dem maser]

Yes andy they are.....it is the same car....they cant flog it so they try different angles....

 

[Nrick]

What do we think

Can't see the issue with the stitching, maybe not looking close enough. There are currently 2 red Gs's for sale, and I have to say I like them both.

Plus's and minus's for all GS for sale at the moment

 

[Andyk]

It looks a very nice car Nrich....I think someone went to see it when it was at another dealer a month or so ago.....The stitching is odd as this must have been a repair of some sort as this wasn't the style of stitching on a GS....Probably not an issue if all else is good..

It's listed at 2K too much in my view, based on the price of other cars; the fact that it is not being sold through a dealership/indie; and it is red (which I like but is more of an acquired taste than blue or black).

"With a Spec That Comes Second To None" - yes, if you are a buyer who is unaware of options such as Auditorium 200 upgrade, heated seats, etc. etc..

 

[Andyk]

Surely you would get a few pounds off as thats the starting price....But yes MS its not the best spec.....I also love the red..One of my fav colours to be honest..After yellow and Rame...

Have to agree Adam , for £22k i'd let mine go, full black piped leather, Full Larini system , Big brake upgrade front and back, new 100% clutch, 46k careful miles

Back on track now , i need that GT this year

I loved the Rame, but very few people were prepared to take the punt when I was selling. People these days are too scared about resale issues.

 

[lozcb]

As you know i totally agree with you, stunning colour the Rame,its in the same league as the Fuji in my book , god knows why people tend to shy away from being bold ,nothing like standing out and above the crowd

If i was in a position to buy Pat's old GS, wouldn't think twice, lovely colour and i dont have a problem with the Tech Cloth interior.

Yes Pat, it was never going to be an easy colour to sell along with yellow...but it just takes time.........Wouldn't put me off mind...

 

[Woody]

I have to say that as somoen looking to buy when I was, I shied away from Pat's car, possibly wrongly. I hadnt ever seen it in the flesh and the tech cloth played on my mind. As I get more into GSs, the rarity has a great appeal. I ended up with a Nero Carb one which something like 30% of UK GSs came in. While I love it to bits and have yet to see another GS while I've been in mine, I still do wonder if I'd have been better off getting something a bit more daring, colour wise.

I'd like to have seen it in person.

...faint heart Woody.......still you have a gud 'un......
