Rareity will push the price up and early 911s have a fanatical following and Those early cars rot horifically and few have survived unless an Ex dry state US car or Italian or Sth Of France car . But i cant help wonder just Why the Iconic CSL is so cheap in comparison .....
You can bet your balls that All the Porshe Dealers and Restorers in the country are watching that car. Ime guessing it ends up at " One " of the Resto Cos.

Its strange how much its "worth" as its been chopped around, there's a fair few of them and will cost a few quid to restore.
What would it restored value be?

What would it restored value be? As a unique preproduction vehicle with an interesting history I'd imagine it would be worth a fair few quid when restored - possibly well into six figures.

I know nothing about 911s really - apart from drooling over a petrol blue 911 Turbo in 1976 when I was 14 that belonged to a bloke who owned a carpet shop - but that had me enthralled. I hope the car is restored sympathetically.

Any guesses on how much they paid and how much of a mug the Scottish chap feels?

Brendan Mullan (one of the new owners) tried to start a thread on here about the Porsche on here, but it's been removed, as it was basically an advert for the ebay auction!

I hope the car is restored sympathetically. I did that (33 pages) last night, hence my 3.30am post on here

I read the 33 pages too, interesting but was expecting a bit more, guess you really need to be a 911 enthusiast to properly get it.
