993 c4s priced at £90k - opinions please

[keith2874]

Hello all

I have been looking for a low mileage 993 to replace my 993 c2 which has now sailed past 120k miles. I have seen a 993 c4s advertised which has 15k miles in midnight blue - it has the rare 3.8 engine upgrade, 2 owners from new and looks mint.

Now maybe I'm out of touch but I would have thought that car might be worth £50k to the right buyer - I was staggered to see it's priced at £90k.

What do you think a sensible bid for this car might be? I don't want to ring the dealer and waste his and my time by offering an unrealistic figure.

Any advice much appreciated.

Regards

K

This one? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3253102.htm

I think it was discussed here a while ago. Looks great but never worth £90k...

I think it was £125k to start with though!

ETA - It's Peter Tognola's old car, have a chat with him if you're serious about it, it hasn't done many miles since he sold it.

A standard 3.6 C2S in lovely order with 16k miles made £50k earlier this year.

There can be no doubt that it is a nice car, especially with that engine, but 90k? No chance.

I say 50-60k tops.

With blue leather dash and grey seats! Over priced.

An RS or turbo would be a better buy!

Think seats are Provence Blue. Very nice car that

£49K and that would take a very special person in my opinion. Way too much blue going on. 3.8 is still 110bhp down on a turbo so not sure of the appeal.

Doesn't do it for me. If I was spending £50K + on a 993, I would either be getting a Turbo or £35K worth of 993 with 10 to 15K to spend on mods and refurbishment.

Madness.

Hi
why wouldn't you spend £x k refurbing your trusty 993 and take it to 250K !

Yes, it was. So just wait a bit longer until it drops to £45k, when it might sell.

Ridiculous.

I owned a C4S 993 & granted it looked nice and sounded sweet due to RSR's but it was IMO very boring, and to that end wasn't in my garage for long, driving a narrow bodied C2 993 is on a different page.
