I appreciate a car is worth what someone is prepared to pay for it but any assessment on the ballpark value of this car? It's a 993 cab with TTP turbo conversion.

Pretty much my perfect porsche !!

Having said that without wishing to offend anyone ( especially the owner !!)

I would start with £25k ?

Unfortunatley for purists the will see it as a bitsa I suspect and I can't see a non factory turbo conversion adding value ?

I am probably well out though !! It's just my opinion

Not sure what the point is putting a turbo on a cab.
If the rest of the car and history is good I would value about the same as a standard car.

That's what I assumed. Was thinking £30K or so. The seller suggested 993TT money!!!!

Blimey is a 993 c4 cab worth £30k ?

I wonder what my 96 c2 cab is worth having had £4k spent on it in the last 4/5 months ?? It has done 120k though !!

I thought £30K would have been a reasonable offer and went a little way to paying a small premium for the turbo conversion. But as I say, I think he's after circa £50K.

As much as I love cabs I would rather a 993 cab for 20k and the rather gorgeous 993 rs rep ( the yellow one) for 30k !!

As much as i love it i Can't see 50k for a cab 993

I'd take my concours 355 spider for £45 k and some change

To be honest my 355 has cost me less to run in the last 5 years than pretty much any of my 911's !!

So long as you buy well Ferraris aren't that scary !!

It's like anything if you buy well and keep them well then they are just a car

Many of the horror stories you hear are people who haven't actually owned them !

Very hard to value. What else has been done to the car? Brakes & Suspension?

Recent service history detail? etc etc etc...

There will be buyers though, just not many!!

There's a marginally better ad in car and classic. 40k euro engine work. Suspension and brake upgrade in 1999.

At the beach with the dog with variable reception so I'll dig out the other ad later.

edit...here you go:
