dan_189 Posted 15May, 2017 Report Share Posted 15May, 2017 Plus the front bumper which does not have the opening in the middle for the third radiator.Yup, although harder to tell because the tips have that 3rd radiator. Rear seats and sunroof are a give away as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quasio Posted 16May, 2017 Report Share Posted 16May, 2017 besides the badge, that looks like a very schmick example, but yeah at that price, u might as well get the 996.2 that's still for sale. (both overpriced imo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan_189 Posted 22May, 2017 Report Share Posted 22May, 2017 Speaking of WOV what is annoying is that the vicroads vcheck used to give a WOV status but now you need to do a PPSR check instead.Different states have different laws but if it was a repairable write off (like this one or it wouldn't have been able to have a Vic registration) then it can be registered in other states. Statutory write off's (declared too badly damaged to be properly repaired) cannot be re registered in any states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simonk Posted 22May, 2017 Report Share Posted 22May, 2017 I've seen in this ad and some others "Previously written off - yes". Is this a question the seller is supposed to answer or does Carsales get the data from the vin provided? I'd get a PPSR check done anyway on any car I was looking at buying but you'd hope the seller was honest before you got to that point and you discovered it was a write off.

quasio Posted 22May, 2017 Report Share Posted 22May, 2017 This one does have an LSD which is a plus, '98 must've been a good year for silver. There's now 4 i've counted in recent months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear924 Posted 23May, 2017 Report Share Posted 23May, 2017 What's a suitable discount for a repairable write off?I purchased a repaired repairable write off Falcon in 2006. It was about 30% cheaper than non WOVR vehicles. I was happy to carry the risk as it was my DD and I knew I'd get nothing at resale regardless of the WOVR status. The car ran really well for the 200k km I drove it and I don't regret the purchase.However.. If I was purchasing a Porsche which wasn't going to be a daily driver, I feel the challenge of selling it on in the future would concern me. So I would want at least a 30% discount on a non WOVR vehicle, and I'd look very closely at the car. For a s1 996 with a WOVR history, I'm thinking somewhere between $20-30k however I'm far from a 996 values expert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 23May, 2017 Report Share Posted 23May, 2017 SA inspection mob would require a tier 3 inspection, and ALL receipts for the parts and work done, including the repairer and where you or they bought the parts from. No if's, but's or maybe's. I looked into it last year with a cheap Cayman, and 2 different inspectors on separate phone call and a face to face visit told me they would have 2 experienced guys go over it with a fine tooth comb, especially an interstate crash repair purchase which they're not fans of Saying that, I've heard plenty of negative stories about the inspection mob here, yet I've been through twice in the past 18 months with the LHD 912 and HK 911 which were both imports and interstate purchases, but they passed with flying colours (I can't begin to tell you how nervous I was on both occasions). The 911 had a couple of minor issues, yet they weren't safety concerns (touching the brake pedal and the parking lights coming on for instance. What the? ). The only way you'll know is by speaking to the inspectors themselves, not the buffoons in the rego departments who have no clue about the ins and outs of what is required (been there coupla times with the same 2 cars. Morons!) nor the expert Joe Bloggs at Cars n Coffee meets. You can read forums or talk to others about the legalities/requirements, yet who is actually an inspector that works at these places that can tell you with 100% certainty? 9.8/10 NONE! If in doubt, DON'T! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quasio Posted 8June, 2017 Report Share Posted 8June, 2017 well that other qld car use to be at 65k, now he's discounted it to 63.5k.. maybe he'll get his price, but definitely not when this other one is around,ims solution + clutch and flywheel ( which i dont think the other car did) which alone is 7k job.so my take is a fair price for non-ims one is probably 55-58k markFor this guy with ims solution - i think 60k is pretty fair?
