Coastr Posted 25March, 2015 Report Share Posted 25March, 2015 Nice looking car. Shame it is a lefty. Quietly looking looking for donor for future project car. Noticed Magnus was playing around with a 964. Be interesting to see how that ends up. Does anyone know the approximate cost of a conversion?http://carsales.mobi/cars/details/1987-Porsche-911-Carrera-No-Badge-No-Series/SSE-AD-3304965 Have you tried driving a lefty? Don't bother with conversions - too expensive for what you get. You posted on the other thread about Porsches being a world market. Well, if you want a world market car....having the steering wheel on the wrong side limits your market to that same collection of bogans that crashed the muscle car market. turboT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraz Posted 25March, 2015 Report Share Posted 25March, 2015 Fraz, Was on Carsales for years and when it disappeared late last year I just assumed it had sold. Why don't you call the owner to be sure? Sold, yep old ad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 Not a bad price only a few hours to go http://www.graysonline.com/lot/0001-5013549/motor-vehiclesmotor-cycles/porsche-cayman-s-987-coupe?spr=true Sold for $38300. That's pretty damn cheap for a 987 Cayman S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter M Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 Wow! That's not a bad buy. Add the buyer's premium and it is still only $40,407. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByronBayChris Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 Wow! That's not a bad buy. Add the buyer's premium and it is still only $40,407. I wonder what problems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter M Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 I wonder what problems? I suspect it's just good old supply and demand at work. Plenty of supply and not much demand as everyone wants the latest and greatest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByronBayChris Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 Always thought graysonline was for the cars which could not be sold elsewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 Always thought graysonline was for the cars which could not be sold elsewhere? Either that or they were engaged by a receiver in a liquidation, and they just came in and sold every asset. They did this for a company I worked for that went belly up, all the office gear, forklifts, work cars and a FPV Cobra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t888 Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 I wonder what problems?I wonder too. Assuming nothing like flood damage etc, the worst case scenario might be engine failure? There must be a price point low enough on these M96/M97 engine cars where putting aside $20k for an engine rebuild still makes sense.

Caledonian Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 Better put a pic of an Allegro up Tazzie as I doubt too many on here would have seen one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 26March, 2015 Report Share Posted 26March, 2015 Jeremy Clarkson compares the Austin Allegro to the Morris Marina. He concludes the Allegro was a better (less bad) car than the Marina, because the Allegro was a horrible car in a more original way than the Marina. In 2007, Sir Digby Jones, in criticising the inefficiencies of the Learning and Skills Council, said, "It is what I call 'the British Leyland model' – you put a lot of money in at the top, and an Austin Allegro comes out at the bottom" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
