I broke my 05 c4s cab and it has been written off. I still have the Hardtop in the garage though. Where would be the best place to sell it???

I have contacted porsche and they say it costs £3000 for a new one without paint. Another £500 painted. (It's Basalt black). What sort of price should i look to get for it?

Thanks

Jon

e bay without any shaddow of a doubt.

beware however, if your insurers are writing the car off, their salvage agents may require the hardtop as it forms part of the car.

Weren't all UK cars supplied with one, so it'll be a limited market.

Looks like ebay is the best place, plus PH classifieds.

yes. but there is always a market. sometimes it can be cheaper to buy a second hand one that get a dropped/damaged one repaired.

They're a standard 996 cab item, however many get lost. £1000 is about the going rate.
