crsedge Posted 18June, 2018 Report Share Posted 18June, 2018 That is what I believe standard 968s should be worth, good pick up for someone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ad says it's been in storage for 22 years, has 140,000ks yet photo shows either 160 or 180 and it's extremely clean for a car that's been sitting that long. I am willing to stand corrected, did someone here buy it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symsy Posted 18June, 2018 Report Share Posted 18June, 2018 Nothing personal @JLD I know someone who has a lot more info, via a non porsche connection… I just laugh as ..our forensic analysis of adverts I find in general really doesnt pan out .. Sometime there are a few good pics of inappropriate parts etc but after that .. the speculations tends to get wild I have looked at many a car that has been discussed on here only to find its not whats being discussed . Some of us are now driving the peaches .. I can think of one GT3 that followed me only in the past few weeks. I also know someone on here driving a very nice 911T which was supposedly unloved .. I can tell you i woulda loved it , but didnt get off my arse. There are some legitimate reasons why some cars sit and again some very shonky adverts. My question always is , would you have bought it , why didnt ya and at what price do you run to the ATM or your internet browser and pop the deposit down? bear924 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I'm generally sceptical of anything on scumtree (gumtree) as there are a lot of sham ads. I'm not on the radar for a 968, more a time killer on a forum. But when I'm truly ready, I'll be chasing every 911 that interests me in person rather than bitching about it online symsy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel Posted 18June, 2018 Report Share Posted 18June, 2018 I love gumtree No way that car smashed out 160,000 kms in 4 years perhaps the ad could have said been under a cover for 12 years.. Maybe a typo .. MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Follow mr 'Duck&Whale' on insta and see a very similar looking car (also a 73T) and how good they can look. Pretty sure his is also a converted 3.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a stack load of fun. I wonder what's hiding under those seat , dash and steering wheel covers? Oh and that gear knob, I won't even go there......All easy fixes though.

I was planning on viewing this car about a month back when coming through Brisbane. Made contact with the owner but unfortunately he was up north while I was there. Might go back and have a look in the next few weeks. I'm always concerned when it comes to drive side conversions, really need to understand the best practices and what to look out for. Has this car been discussed at all? Any history? https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-911-1970/SSE-AD-5439915/?Cr=22 Fresh paint job and also has the gauges in the correct position (unlike the '73) 4 minutes ago, turboT said: or this... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1973-porsche-911-carrera-rs-3/ Nice!
