I think it will sell fairly easily. Good condition, trendy and many peoples dream car. Spend £100k now and in a few years get £100k back for it, why not. Man maths suggests its a great move compared to a modern car where you spend 100k and get 50/60k back in a few years.
Its funny because when you look at it like that, its completely logical!

Sold in a flash at approaching £90k and worth every penny IMO.

Question for the thread. What happens at the other end of mileage scale?

Have a guards red 964 c2 Manual with a black leather interior. However it's at 240k miles. Full service history with a top end rebuild at 100 and a top and bottom end with a new crank shaft just completed. Full photo's of all the work and more than 30k in bills. Glass out respray at RPM tecnik last year. It's currently in perfect, perfect condition. No idea what it's worth though. Any thoughts?

Sounds fab.

If suspension, interior etc etc are up together as well, I'd say 30-35k. .............. Mileage is immaterial to an enthusiast if the history file stacks up, in these days of big money low mileage 'investor' cars.

Just checking but I'm sure Singer use 993 Turbo Calipers with 17" wheels?
Also Larry from Ammo NYC who owns a monster 964 uses both 17" and 18" with big reds. See for yourself he made a video about them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1Sw5uwtn44
Definitely looks like I was wrong re big reds requiring 18's. Definitely on the look out for some 17's to run on my 64 with 40-45 profile tyres. Will make the car much more compliant on the road.

Not so sure. My C2 has been up for sale at £34K for a while now and had no real interest. Despite the huge money lavished on maintaining and improving it, I think it's the miles on the clock that puts people off. They must all be looking for investment cars rather than ones to drive.

I'm amazed. I know that your car is a lovely example. If I hadnt already got a 964, I'd definately have been a potential buyer.

Why this 'Beardy man' mileage obsession? If these cars are properly looked after, they will outlast just about everything

I don't disagree with much of what you say. I think the low miler garage queens have skewed the market so that everyone thinks their 964 is worth £40K+. Yet the ever increasing number in the classifieds indicates that they're not selling. Hence why I mentioned my own experience of pitching a well maintained, honest high miler well below the top asking prices had attracted little interest. So, with signs of the soggy winter ending I think it's time to bring it out of hibernation, orders some new track tyres and make some bookings. biggrin

Boxsy .. think the problem with your car is the mention of needing attention to bodywork . This automatically is going to put people off. Also these days a cage amd trackseats are not the draw they used to be when they were £15K trackcars. I reckon if you fitted some stock seats and returned the interior more towards full stock etc you'd have a better response

Thanks mate, I had considered that and it's got all the stuff to put it back to a standard interior. It says that in the ad. I think it would be shame to make it normal again and it would never make a concours car. However, the ad doesn't say the bodywork needs attention - I've just given a fair appraisal of what has been done and what someone might want to do in the future. Especially since folk seem to be keen on having full makeovers done on these cars. I won't post a link but it's easy to find in the ads section of 911UK.com wink

I usually like red interiors, but that is just horrible.

£100k then I would strip out the scaffolding and the awful interior and spend another £50k putting it right.
