Hi

A friend of mine has been left a Porsche 928 registered in 1997 - all I have on it just now is it needs a little work, has no tax/MOT. I've asked for some more info but she has asked the value for it....I've said it could be 5 or 25k because I don't know anything about it.

Anybody know a rough value? Best way to do it stick the VRM into an online valuation?

Cheers

If its not a gts or manual gt I would assume lots of work and value in the £1-5k range at best

It is a 928 S4 auto - red with cream leather interior mileage 90k.

She's in charge of her fathers estate and this is a small part of it - he was a bit of a car geek - loved his cars owned Aston's, RR and had this for fun I'm guessing. It has a FSH and folder full of receipts. It starts and is on an Irish Plate. She has a lot on dealing with her fathers estate and just wants rid of this. Work wise she has no idea how much work is req'd.

ANy thoughts on rough value appreciated. If interested drop me a line.

Call Henry at 911Virgin.com

Send him some photos and he'll give you a decent bid.

So it's probably a 1987, rather than 1997.

There's quite a spread on the asking prices of 928 S4's for sale in the PH classifieds (see below), so it may depend on how quickly you want it sold. I'd probably price it between £10-12k depending on condition, originality and history.

1988 S4 (Auto) Silver, Blue, 41k miles up for £16,750

1988 S4 (Auto) Black, Havannah, 77k miles up for £14,995

1988 S4 (Auto) Silver, Cream, 110k miles up for £9,995

1992 S4 (Auto) Red, Cream, 88k miles up for £8,995

1987 S4 (Auto) Grey, Tweed, 93k miles up for £6,500 (Guernsey)

If its been laid up, has no MOT and 'needs work', its likely to be worth very little, maybe 2k?

Got to agree with Molly on this - chances are high that it's a money pit - any unloved 928 will cost a fortune to put right and although they may be on the rise value wise they still aren't particularly sought after.

Well, 1K at best, maybe 2k?
If you guys have no idea why not keep quiet?
You know, its not against the law not to add a comment to every Porsche thread under the sun.
OP, get it washed and get some photos up including the interior.
State the work done, anything of note on any receipts.
Moving it on at a much higher number will not be a problem especially as it runs.
You would get crushed in the stampede at the valuations given here. Jeez . . . . . .

Thanks for replies all.

My friend has had a bit of interest in it and has set up a f/book page for it for anybody that may want a look

I would have washed it and put an engine bay pic in there but apart from that it looks good.

F/book - Porsche 928.
