Why the price difference on these two 993 Turbo S cars?

[sundiver]

Both are 911 (993) Turbo S models - Why is there such a price difference? Is it "just" the mileage?

I know the lower mileage car has a mere 7K miles against a comparitively "whopping" 54k miles but is there something else I'm missing here?

[loach]

The 7k one apparently had a lady owner, so it's had a new clutch obviously. Aside from that, a combination of the rare colur, low mileage and blind optimism equates to well over 80k? Other car looks like better value, and 54k miles isn't much for a 993 if the car has been well maintained.

Realistic dealer versus optomistic private seller?

[rathur]

i know someone that went to see the yellow one with 85k in readies and has not been serviced for five years and
the woman took her dogs for a walk in it everyday so totally smells on dogs***!!!...... alledgely only of course

HI GUYS
DO NOT NO IF IT`S WHAT YOU ARE AFTER BUT MY BUSINESS PARTNER WAS TALKING ABOUT SELLING HIS RS ,
IF THIS WOULD BE ANY GOOD TO YOU LET ME NO AND I GET FULL DETAIL ,YEAR ,FULL MODEL ECT.
SORRY NOT UP ON THESE MODELS.

Only 375 made world wide! A handful were made right hand drive. This was specially commissioned after the last Turbo-S model was made. There is not a mark on the body work. Smells like a new car. 1 owner, Cost £135,000.00 new.
Only driven in summer months

probably to do with a combination of things like rare colour and only 7000 miles but to be honest id rather save the £30k myself and have the cheaper one

Dont forget a touch-up job on virtually every panel on the car.

And it has had new footmats because the old ones were covered in nail varnish drippings, a few traces of which can no doubt still be found on the steering wheel and rear view mirror.

993RS LHD/RHD Spec.....is it a RHD Clubsport?

I know of a 4000 mile Mint 993 Turbo S, collected the car with the owner, as he handed over the deposit at the independent dealer the phone rang offerring a substantial profit to dealer and my friend, the car was 2000 miles then he has kept it, the ultimate Garage Queen.

So who will own up to having sniffed the seats in her car

fidgits.
The RS is not for sale for now i did enquired to the position.

You have no worry i am not looking for any new business for now and I have no intention of stepping on your feet..

So you still have the market place corner in rent boy service . Get some cream for the itching . You will fidget less if it does not Itch. Change of job would help long term .
He He He He.
