Heard of one, seized gearbox, 2000 mls since new,,has not moved since 1981.
I understand this is not a cheap fix.

ps what sort of price are we looking at.
 
Technically, they still lurk within the 930 Register, and Andrew Mearns is definitely the person to talk to.
 
They were sold in 87-88 and then 8 more in 91. The only cars pre-dating that were the experimental cars the first of which made it on to the road in 1985 (the vorserie cars!!) one of which is due to be sold by RM in August.

Are you sure the gearbox is seized? My experience of the cars is that the box is extremely robust and not likely to fail. Should you mean the transmission generally i.e. the electronics which control the % of drive going to the front and back axles? That system does fail on cars which are not used. Even so, if the electronics fail the car defaults to a manual setting and will still work.

Happy to point you in the right direction/provide more help but I think we need a bit more clarity as to the issue. PM me if necessary.

Hi Damen
I may have misunderstood this guy and as he is away in S America for a few months I cant get any info.
Do you have any idea what it would be worth.

Hi Paul

Are you buying or just interested?

What it's worth depends on what it is and it's condition/woes. Is it a Komfort or a Sport? Is it a 87/88 or a 91?

A sound Komfort starts at £350k going up to circa £500k and a Sport is worth considerably more. 91s, in my opinion, are worth no more than a similar 87/88 Komfort.

If the car you've mentioned has problems from lack of use (the biggest issue for 959s) then it could easily cost £50k to get it back on the road and £100k if the issues are more serious.

If you are buying PM me.
