Gary's a mate of mine, the reason he is selling them, is because he wants to move on, and enjoy other things in life and cars. He's not desperate to sell though and he won't give them away!

Two magnificant cars, I hope the new owner (if they sell) will continue to bring them to Nationals and other shows etc. as Gary has done.

He will never part with his first XRGT and only has plans to make it faster and use it for more fun times ahead!

That 993 looks good too. Probably a little above the budget at the moment :(

If I had some serious coin. I would buy every car on that page and have a special shed setup ! A lot of motoring history for sale just in those few cars.

Very nice looking cars.

He's had the Silver for sale for ages, at the price he is expecting I'd say he will be keeping one or both for a while.

Not as long as he has had the tough gold one! The GALLAHER he had about 15 years, the ex GEOGHAN he has had for about 10 years, the gold toughie (and my favourite) he has had for 28 years! ( saw it the very first day he had it!) P.S. They'll sell... eventually. Before the wfc he was offered top money, but didn't want to part with them then. This is another 1989, prices fell, 15 years later they were through the roof again!
