The Collecting Cars Porsche thread…

[Orangecurry]

Whoa! Some of those letters are upside down!

BTW is this a sensible or serious thread? I only posted as I saw Kimbos name on the RHS

[993kimbo]

Oh no, I think they're all upside down! I've never noticed that before.

That Navy Carrera GT seems to have been for sale quite a few times this year already has it not ?

Seems an odd choice of colour to me - if you're going to all the trouble of having Porsche change the colour, be a little more imaginative than Doom Blue.

Not that I wouldn't have it in a heartbeat if I could find the funds...

I think i did almost more miles in that car than one of the previous owners. The colour in real life is absolutely stunning. In a world where F40s have gone up by 50% in 18mths, this is somewhat of a bargain...

They ride a bit softer than a GTS.

Oh and at that mileage it is unlikely it’s had a transfer box issue but it is pretty much guaranteed it will have at some stage. The £1000 a year for Porsche Warranty is thus money well spent.

This finishes in a few hours, be interesting to see where it ends.....

I like it - odd to see a turbo on the 'smaller' wheels though.
I feel they drive like a grown up hot hatch - good that it has the newer nav unit in it too.

Yep - looks good on smaller wheel, however no pan roof, therefore it was £40k max for to me, current bid (plus fees) is already at that amount.

Did anyone see the 3.2 Clubbie that was up on CC a couple of days ago. Following day it was gone. Any storyline?

[ChrisW.]

Yes I saw it ... and asked, apparently the sale has been deferred ... but it is no longer shown as a forthcoming sale.

The reg was F358 UJH with a recent visit to Porsche Tonbridge and currently living in Poole, Dorset ... ???

It looked a very interesting car, but not cheap ??

The 993RS that sold on Sunday for £285k had significant damage that was not declared on the advert despite CC being made aware. All the left rear quarter panel spot welding is wrong and not factory, it’s had 2 front wings, bonnet and still has some residual damage in the front boot area.

Inner chassis damage left unrepaired….

Nothing noted on the inspection report except some paint touch up - that’s odd isn’t it? I thought you could trust those

2017 Porsche 911 GTS

5 hours to go and only £52k, plastic dash, low tread on rear tyres, 50k miles and due a service / MOT in 3 to 4 months.

Even at £65k I would think it was good value ??

1993 964 Turbo RUF 3.8 BTR is involved in a mega bidding war as I type this!

Made £205,888 in the end.
It looks like these non W09 vin cars are starting to encroach on the W09 cars.
