Oh I agree with that generally, but some of these creations are really quite special.
Someone looking for a unique car will probably pay this money just for that reason.
The green Tutthill car seems to have sold as well...
BTW your 911 looks fantastic, it looks like the Tuthills car. The Tuthill car is well known as it had quite a lot of media exposure when it was built - which gives buyers comfort.Someone looking for a unique car will probably pay this money just for that reason.

Any more pics?

+1 look at what Singer are charging. Right time to be selling something like this RSR copy but I'd still be nearer £80k for it. Its just a 3.2c underneath it all.Someone looking for a unique car will probably pay this money just for that reason.

Singer are technically in a different league of super bespoke cars for the ultra wealthy. They're justifiably a marque in their own right like RUF with the Ruf CTR 'Yellowbird'.Agree the RSR recreation should be circa £70-80k like the creations at JZM. But that's the 'PS tax'.

The older aircooled market seems to be cooling off, lots of overpriced cars hanging around at the usual dstealers.
Take an old 3.2 Carrera with 915 box throw lots of money at it and you get a £120k Porsche 911 RSR Evocation (1985)!

Lot of over priced 3.2's been on the market for an age. More so for the 930's. The realistically priced ones don't hang about. PS has always been over priced IMO yet dealers such as Philip Raby who tends to price things fairly in my opinion shifts stock.

Cheers!
It was the Tutthills car
I'll miss it badly, it really is a fantastic steer. Some chap in Hong Kong has got himself an amazing car..
I'll find some and post them up later.

FWIW I've seen that car...and it is immense. Amazing build done to the highest standards. Take an old 3.2 Carrera with 915 box throw lots of money at it and you get a £120k Porsche 911 RSR Evocation (1985)!
That would have cost almost that to build and if someone is looking for that 'type of car'...it is one of the best out there.

Shame it's gone to Hong Kong!
Been a bit quiet ladies so I thought this thing warrants attention.
Estimate £95 - £110
WTF?! It appaear to be pi$$ing it out in the wrong places and will need much shekels spending on the tub! Iceberg tip type thing... Perhaps £40k for a proper rotisserie job as its history warrants it... Plus the 2.7IB motor is not known as hugely robust.
It won't be long before truly original IB cars are right up there. As in £100k. This is going to a restored car! From '74 - '89 it matters not what model just that it has never been rotten and needs no rectification. They all look the same to the layman!
A totally original car is what the collector purists want for investment grade. On the back of all this I've raised my insurance valuation somewhat!
From the beginning of this thread prices have simply gone insane.

We know you have a nice original rust free IB, keep talking it up!
I think the market has cooled off, too many overpriced queens pretending to be mint cars. Good cars will still sell at the right price, but it's all looking toppy.
Plus is getting boring and most people are happy to sit on their cars...except the GT3 boys who are getting edgy.
