993 C2 varioram (late 1995), very average cosmetic condition (not beaten up by any means but well used and clearly lots of time spent outside rather than tucked away in a garage), 130k miles, good mechanical condition and clearly where the owner has concentrated their attention/money (most usual suspects have been sorted and lots of traceable history).

What price range (min/max) would people expect this car to be?

What are the 'usual suspects' that have been done and how recently.

It's had lower cam covers, steering rack recon, clutch, dampers/suspension, wishbones, brake caliper overhaul all round and discs. All of the above have been done over the last 25k miles.

Other usual suspects that I am aware may still bite (and need to be checked) are heatshield condition and of course checking for any oil leaks!

My question assumes the above items come through an inspection ok.

Happy to have other usual suspects pointed out to me to scare me even more!

I suppose I should clarify the cosmetic condition given that this is of course relevant. If it had a full spray and the seats re-trimmed it would be a very sorted car! I just don't think the mileage allows this to be viable? It's solid without scuttle rust, dents etc so doesn't need repair on that front just very tired paint and very worn seats (a proper detail may sort the paint enough but the seats are beyond a good old clean!)

I'll have a stab at around £15,000 but I'm an amateur. Is this a car you're intending to buy and if so, is it private or from a dealer? What's the int/ext colour? Porsche paintwork is excellent and can easily brought back to scratch with a good detail. Seats can be sorted quite easily too. Don't let anyone tell you the 993 is a cheap car to buy or run. There's always something, but this one sounds like it's had quite a bit done.

Each car is not the same condition wise, people in general would need to view.
Maybe have a look at other models like yours, and see how much they are selling for.

As with most cars what the seller wants, and gets is another matter.
You may get more on a PX at a garage?.

Goodluck
