Thommo66 Posted 16April, 2018 Report Share Posted 16April, 2018 At the risk of rocking up to the party after it's finished ! ... I did a search earlier on 930's to get a sense of price valuations myself and found this thread. Like all P's there is a valuation delta for anything non-Australian delivered and a buyer beware PPI checkpoint for the cars out of the UK given rust propensity. Any views on what that market delta is likely to be on a 930 for something like this UK import one ? It states rust free but would still need to be tested having found this out myself the hard way when I invested time, effort and hard coin on almost buying what seemed to be a sensational manual '97 993 C2S last year. Very different colour as well. Striking ! https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/Porsche-930-1982/SSE-AD-4624679/?_ga=2.225894746.1984309324.1523781482-1994456277.1516958944&_gac=1.221707882.1523789410.Cj0KCQjw8MvWBRC8ARIsAOFSVBVLSo0WoajM1itu8dUSYJpgRymtlY6ipHAedk2619QviH1RZoQCUp4aAnpNEALw_wcB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool looking car! Thanks @spiller and @LeeM small world. I watched this youtube of Magnus Walker on his '75 930 acquisition from Australia a few years ago which drew me back to my very first memory of the iconic Porsche which was the poster of the 930 around the same time as the Lamborghini Countach. I think I had both on my wall at one stage ! Here is the Magnus Walker clip if anybody is interested and hasn't seen it. I found a web post that suggested that he picked it up for around $115k at the time. Nice purchase ! I am very keen to drive one to see what they are like if any PFA members based in Melbourne have one and would be agreeable to catching up at some stage for a spin swap with my 966tt.

Boring as bats$% for Magnus and his fanboys, but reckon powder coat those rims in any version of black and some shoe polish, ideally another 10mm raised in the rear for some symmetry and that would tick more boxes for me. Not convinced of the exposed industrial skirtless look with that two tone paint job and is that symmetrical on the drivers side, or is it part of the nostalgia and paying a premium for a bit of free flowing license with a gun ( or is that natural eg has the car been left in 2 foot of water and the lines are from the watermark) or too tight to spend circa $200 for some stencils ( meticulous) for a bit of guidance. PS is that tag under the phone box a bit of Magnus's free flowing handy work. Eg felt a bit guilty tagging the freshly coated brickwork and settled for a tag under the phone box stand instead. Is Magnus left handed, eg needed to tilt the canvas to the right 45 degrees to make it look straight. Fraz and 9er 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
