993 C4S, C2S & TT
Discussion
I'm interested in this C4S which I saw last weekend:-
http://www.strasse.co.uk/cars.asp?car_id=538
However, there are a couple of issues that make it a less than perfect buy. Firstly, the Guarantee and Maintenance booklet that comes with the car is a replacement which means that the original sticker is missing, so things like the chassis number and option codes are written in ink. Will this have an effect on the car's value? If so, by roughly how much?
Secondly, this car has a Turbo rear spoiler, which I believe was a factory option at the time? It even has the "turbo" badge on it which looks a bit naff IMO. The garage says that the rear engine cover lid could be changed for a second hand C4S one and painted if I want it back to original spec as I think that turbo rear spoilers are best left on the real thing.
Has anyone seen this car, and if so, what did you think?
On the subject of 993 C4S, C2S & TT does anyone know how many of each were produced in RHD for the UK market? And what registration plates/years were they available on?
It seems that C4Ss are thin on the ground at the moment compared to C2Ss & TTs.

Don't know the car but are you buying it to drive or speculate on it's potential?
The turbo spoiler option is not a problem on a C4S (I'm biased, I have one), however the turbo badge is a no-no - get it removed before you take possession. If you get it returned to standard there should be a cash benefit to you of about a grand (maybe a bit less if paint is needed).

Don't know the car , but it seems very cheap for dealer retail...
If the original service book is missing , do you still have details of the fsh?
There's also an outside chance that someone at some stage has front ended the car , fixed it privately , taken the vin sticker from the service book and stuck it on a new bonnet , and then 'lost' the service book. It's probably not the case , but worth a good look around the luggage space ..
Nice though
