Prospective Gs300 Purchaser

[Keith Bowler]

Hello all

Please excuse me if I am not using this forum correctly as it is my first visit.

I am looking to purchase a pre 1997 GS300 sport but am not having much luck.

I have a tidy sum of dosh burning a hole in my pocket and would like to know if any one knows of a good one currently available.

Alternatively, I may purchase a standard GS 300 and upgrade to the sport spec. Going this route what parts would I need?

My budget for the upgrade would be about £1500-£2000.

Thanks for your help

Keith,

You will need to purchase the following to convert a 300 into a sport.

• Front Grill Approx £400
  Rear Spoiler Approx £500
  Lowering springs -25mm approx £200
  18inch TTE rims and tyres Approx£1800
  Two sport stickers £12.00
  Plus cost of painting and fitting
  

Your much Better off finding a Sport.

I did convert my old series one into a sport, so the above list is from my conversion costs in 1999

Hope this helps? :hohoho:

I just got one and can't understand why anybody would spend the same money on a newer Mondeo etc :D

If you have to ask why. You will never understand. :)

I was lucky. I found someone breaking a sport near to me and got all the upgrades from him at a damn good price. Last I heard he was in hospital having his arm sewn back on. :)
