Title: Orange Frog Car For Sale
Post by: Max Wyer on December 08, 2024, 12:41:44


Good afternoon,

Here for sale is the orange number 15 car that has been rebuilt and run by
 Le Frog Racing, a team from France.

 The car is in very presentable condition and was last raced in the 2023 Snetterton 2CV 24hr.
It is always been stored indoors.

The car is UK Club spec and is ready to race.

The price is £8000 or nearest offer.

The car is currently in Herefordshire, however I am happy to discuss delivery.

I don't have interior pictures at present but I can add those later on.

Any idea of history and package. £8k is high without that info...  which one of the cars bought from the uk was this?  i.e JRZ or Lambert?

Cheers

Yes I apologise Andy, I don't know the car's full history as I am selling on behalf of Laurent, but I've spoken to him and this is his response.

 "This was the Lambert family car. It had the number 43 and was in the light blue and orange colors of Gulf racing. They drove for about 10 years with good results. I bought it back in 2019, it became the orange frog and did the 24 hours in 2021, 2022 and 2023 with the PLYER brothers."

The car is without spares currently but I'm sure I can help out with things like that if necessary.

Cheers

Max

Good Info.  If it was the '43'  owned by Richard Lambert and raced alongside his son Matt.  It was last run in Gulf colours.  I ran the car under the Tete rouge banner for several years and Engines were by Sammie back then.  Although what remains of any of this.......

The car was a front runner at the time, regularly on the podium. 

The asking price is very top end without any spares package though.  Assume its complete with one engine (in it).

Seems a super high price with no spares, considering the other race winning cars have for quite a bit less with a full package of spares and several engines.

I have a Gent who spoke to us at Race Retro who is looking for a car to buy around 5-6k or a seat to hire at the least for Silverstone.

Ill pass on the info but fear the vehicle is to highly priced as it is.
