These guys are restoring a 85/86 Testarossa. Looks like a reality show but they're tearing things down on the car!
Im french i can translate He pretty much buys the car with accident and the guys have to bid to fix it; he has them fix it and then sells for a profit good show! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
He buys it for 75k euros, around 90k us, the guy charges him 45k for complete restoration (including parts) car owes him 120k he sells it for 130k euros which is 160k. I honestly think it's expansive as this car, although a monospechio, was in an accident, doesnt have original steering wheel, gear knob and from what he is saying it has low miles but it sounds like above 30k miles. It aired in may 17 so pretty recent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
74,000 km which is about 46,000 miles. Nice program, although it's tuned to appeal to a wider audience (comments about how the brakes were great are just to impress people who have no clue - they were actually terrible )
Another thing they said which is believe was wrong was belt service must be done every 2 years. I believe its at least 3, ppl stretching it to 5. What was interesting as well was that although the car did need belt service the belt was actually still strong... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The maintenance plan in the owners manual says replacement of timing belts every 24 months or 30,000 km or 18,750 miles Most probably it's improved with newer belts though.
I don't know of anyone doing this lol. Im hoping mine stretches to 5 years Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
