Porsche 928 GTS For Sale at Portiacraft

[Batchworth993]

Just wondered if anyone had had a look at the 93 928 GTS for sale at Portiacraft - or perhaps knows the car?

I've been thinking about popping up to Mill Hill to take a look but just haven't found the time yet - I think it's been for sale for 3-4 months, maybe longer.

Looks like a good car....(if I did buy it I would have Peter Morgan give it the once-over of course..).

So has anyone see the car - or know anything more about it?

Thanks

I'm not one normally for getting an inspection, however if its an older car, then if I was buying from these fellas, I would most def get an inspection.

I know the last but one owner an architect , he bought it from Portiacraft he said it was the best car he has ever owned he traded it in for a black C4S Cab 996 that was about 3 years ago. He is sorely tempted to buy it back and just store it.

Thanks for all the replies so far - I see that Portiacraft has just increased the price by £1000 to £13995. An interesting tactic on a car that is not selling. Has made my decision that bit easier........

Cheeky bds!
Wait another month it will be down to 11995. Lol.

I'm quite certain that this car was advertised at £125000 for months on end. As they haven't sold it the price has recently been increased to £135000 :

Both those number sound very high to me.

STOP PRESS! Looks like their tactic may have worked - looks like they've sold it!

Not for a good GTS - twice the price, at least, of a cooking S4.

I guess that the 928 is finally becoming collectable, with good examples probably hard to find given that most would have been run on the cheap for a decade or so given where values have been. I've read a number of articles recently suggesting that the run-out GTS is the one to have so maybe not the worst buy in the world at this price? Still a cheap Porsche for someone.

No car not sold, they have taken it off the market to do the bits of paintwork needed to make it perfect and to be honest I don't think they are that bothered if it sells this year or next as prices are not dropping.

I nipped in at the weekend to look at the Aston they have as I have been toying with the idea of changing my 997 C4S for one but the car was not there as Harry took it home for a trip to Goodwood over the weekend, I should have rung.
Apparently they are desperately short of stock and the showroom was almost empty and they are finding very hard to source good cars.
I wonder if this is a general problem in the trade at the moment.

To my untrained eye the GTS looked perfectly okay but when you look closely both bumpers are very chippy and I can see how it would put a purist off.

I expect it will be relisted once done.

Thanks johnbrace - very helpful.
