911virgin Posted 18March, 2022 Report Share Posted 18March, 2022 18/3/21 The Vesuvio edition has just popped up on the Dutton site This ad now states 114000 KMs and the worn leather seats look like they have been refurbished. Perhaps the previous ad with 202000 KMs was a typo? Asking $290k! symsy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only had a quick peek through the window but the interior leather looked tidy. The price seems kinda outrageously high for a Tip? Is a Vesuvio Edition a particularly desirable collectible?

I don't think it being a Vesuvio edition commands $40 K above market average for a tiptronic Maybe the photos from the 202000km listed car was old photos from a different car? The leather seats in the 202000km car were really rough and worn ,nothing like the 114000km car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

911virgin Posted 19March, 2022 Report Share Posted 19March, 2022 With the Vesuvio version the differences are purely cosmetic right? The engine was the same as other C2S 's right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cafe_racer Posted 19March, 2022 Report Share Posted 19March, 2022 Yep. Same engine. there is another identical spec one floating around with big k’s on it. This one looks to be a different car. This is the one that had large k’s. Think it was $100k in 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this one with big KMs on it was the one initially listed on Duttons? $100k in 2019 seems awfully cheap......average price for C2s then we're at least $150k. Where did you see it for sale?

Seems like alot of value if this moved close to 400k Seems like a very well positioned car .. I have actually spoken to the owner .. always the question if they will show some minimal rust .. Uk cars seem to settle corrosion wise after a few years here in the heat and humidty and but you can easy fix that . Thats the pick of cars in manual , good exhaust they sound mean and tune em even better , I have punched out quite a few laps in one of these and spent some days happily sliding around in one of those in a skid pan.. That arse too... My god maybe I should buy it No affiliation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
