Lets play guess the asking price.
I'll start, a £100K

[anonymous-user]

Do you think they would take £60k??
Thought not.....

Less than 1k miles pa - makes you wonder why people bother?

Got to be somewhere around there doesn't it.
Very nice!

Do we think it will go to the far east or has that craze slowed recently?

It does but, their car, their choice.
The owner could work a lot or have a fleet of other things to rack the miles up on.

I'd have one in an instant, even for rare use. Heck, I've done less than 1000miles per year in my Turbo over the last 2 years!
Not proud of that though, it's just how it goes sometimes.

Lovely. £100002.50 ish with the ferrari style wing sticker

The vehicle J8RSL, a Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Coupe (Coupe), is on our database.

Really 100k?

I know I'm an idiot but we are not in the greatest of financial times.

It looks awsome and is no doubt brilliant but is it really worth 100k? anybody else sense a crash coming?


And if I was lucky enough to own that car first thing I'd do is remove the 'shields' don't even like them of F cars

I put my old 964RS details into the checker and it comes up as a Carrera 2 Coupe as well... Not sure if the database from then records the specific model details.

fair enough but they are both j registered cars, why would they be different if they are from the same age

Looks lovely (I'd have to remove the wing shields)



Sure it (or the plate) has been in a few articles!

Because there is no consistency in the way the DVLA record these things.

Plenty are just recorded as 911 - nothing else.

This is why the 'How Many Left Website' isn't worth looking at...

To be fair, the V5 on my old Evo showed it just as 'Mitsubishi' with no model.

Also when I changed my MGB from white to black, I sent in the V5 three times, the first two it came back white again, the third it came back as a white coupe. I gave up after that.

Agreed - there speaks a man with knowledge. DVLA records can be taken with a pinch of salt, I've seen the V5 of a 928 which stated the fuel type was diesel!

The chassis number is the only way to decipher whether a 911 is a genuine RS. The car in the OP looks every inch an RS - irrespective of what the DVLA records state

Asking 120k according to the Porsche Club forum. So difficult to put a price on a car that is so unusual, but I think that number is probably achievable.
