718 GT4 UK Allocations

[richyd]

Anyone know how complex these are to fit..? Been thinking about these since I changed my air filters and pulled a cigarette butt out that had been nestled next to the paper filter… if this had been alight it’s very easy to see how this could cause a fire

Probably worth having.

Last year in a 4RS I clipped a pheasant competing with me for B road space on the outskirts of York and unfortunately (for the pheasant) it ended its days in the offside scoop.

As it is an offence to collect personally culled roadkill I did the decent thing and gave it a hedgeside burial.

These ones need the side rockers taking off… but it is a straight forward job.

Anyone has ever taken their 718 GT4 to Cadwell Park circuit for a track day? Is it suitable for 718 GT4?

[ChrisW.]

Most definitely yes, Cadwell Park is a great circuit for a GT4.

It takes a little learning and in places it's much faster than you think .... but well worth the learning IMHO.

I was there last week in my Peugeot 208 gti bps. Really enjoyed it but needed a lot of concentration. There were dedicated track cars, F series M4 and M2 and Alfa Romeo quodrofoglios that were faster.

My track experience is currently limited and with unpredictable British weather and semi slick Dunlop Maxx Race 2 Tyres (experienced and believed by most to be a better track tyre than Michelin sport Cup 2, especially the North Americans) on the GT4, I am thinking, I need to have more track experience under my belt before venturing with the GT4.

The only local circuits in the Northeast (Croft) is over subscribed and their track days are almost always on Mondays. The worst day work wise. The same with Teesside autodrome. So this limits track days. Although snertetton is in the offing

Agreed-
I had an evening at Cadwell in my 718 GT4 - great car for the circuit

[BillyB]

I've only been to Cadwell once and it wasn't in a GT4. I was properly slow but loved it. Such a fun track.

Its a tight circuit and a GT4 would be great there.

Now this is a honey! Classy PTS, with contrasting/matching yellow highlights, and all the right options ticked.

Well specd low mileage GT4’s moving forward will always be offered at premium prices and I suspect that will continue now they are no longer produced imo

[KittyLitter]

Why wait for an allocation?

Paint to sample - Jet Green Metallic

There are no more allocations to wait for.

Production stopped last year.

Huge spec car appeared today.

Noggy has always been a favourite colour of mine so I’m looking forward to seeing the pictures and see what it looks like on a GT4. Those config’ renderings aren’t even close!

Good example of a high specd low mileage GT4 commanding a punchy price. Let’s see if it gets picked up quickly.

I couldn’t wait to see the pics so I deliberately threw myself down a few social media rabbit holes to see if I could find said car. I’m pretty sure this is it, as the colour/stitch/belts/spec seems to match…

Stunning.
