Got carried away at auction, advice needed...(930 Turbo)
Discussion
Hi there,
I’ve had some money burning a hole in my pocket since selling my London flat in the summer and moving to the midlands and made my mind up that I would like a turbo bodied red 80’s Carrera Sport Coupe to replace our 987 cayman. (We used to have an MGB GT so I appreciate classics are not always convient etc)
Anyway whilst being shocked at the price for a turbo bodied car I convinced myself ‘you could almost get a leggy turbo for that money...’ and then I got stuck on a train for 3 hours Thursday... then registered for an auction at the other end of the country... then got caught up in the heat of the moment and won this turbo, site unseen...
I WAS feeling brave but now less so, I’ve noticed the bumpers don’t look right for a 930? Apparently it went to Australia first then UK.
Anything else look bad or out of the ordinary to you guys?
More pics when I see it (these were from the ad)
Thanks,
Rick

I think I’m just being paranoid
I was feeling lucky and convinced myself after watching a petrolicious video of a white 930 looking good.... and the guy was a dad... and I found out last weekend we’re now expecting (so cayman has to go before something sensible takes its space etc!)
It’s basically virgins fault for trapping me on the train for 3 hours with free Wifi!
