[944 man]

Someone was looking for them; possibly Sean:

Ridiculous price mind.....

Ridiculous price mind.....

I dunno.....[8|]

As the parts all age, and become harder to source, they might just become worth a lot more. Who'd have thought, 20 years ago, that a dash from a scrap 924 would be valuable; now an un-cracked early dash is worth money. I know that none of us think that oval dashes are also cracking, we are doing great impressions of ostriches, but I'd think that today's £20 dash might be worth putting in the loft just in case.

If you have a concourse 924, and you need the brown pasha door cards to complete the car, what value would you place on a decent pair? Just like the owners of Silver Rose cars, where a good set of seats is worth more than the car, or the Studio cloth that's unavailable anywhere.

924 dash boards have always been worth good money: I used to sell them in 1995 for £150, whichs more than a perfect dash sells for now (though theyre rarer, of course).

I see what you mean about scarcity, but pasha doesnt age well and Im confident that theyll be overpriced if you see them in the flash. Even if the card itself is good (rare) then the material will be miscoloured and breaking down.

Im starting to feel old, because I can remember when pasha was black or brown and white..... []

Someone was after black vinyl cards a while ago. I have some mint ones so enquired at Porschapart what they would ask for a pair as an idea of what price to ask. They were asking £203 a pair without any handles! Offered mine at £150 with handles and the guy just stopped all correspondance. Thought I was being reasonable at the time but from the above thread I see why he was obviously not interested. How do you decide what stuff is worth in any case?

Buttercup has always been the same! He always expected to buy for nothing, but he tried to charge the going rate when other traders bought from him. He isnt highly regarded... There are some advantages to dealing with Simon, unlike DVB: both seem to think that we're still in the nineteen nineties and that the cars are worth upwards of £10,000 though.

It was black pasha and not brown: so despite my good intentions this is a somewhat redundant thread.

I'm still after a black pinstripe for drivers door, needs to be in good condition though []

Simon at ESS has a pair of black vinyl crds that he has offered for sale on eBay a few times. They didnt sell last time and his starting price was £20 for the pair, which Id expect him to sell them for directly. Worth considering perhaps? Plain cards were the base spec I realise, but 25 years on theyre usually looking a lot smarter.

Hi, just back from France after a week of avoiding speedguns in the 924S..

thanks for the thread: I have some grey leather cards on what is pretty much a track car, and with black everything else these now look daft, so I was thinking Pasha black/white, as that is a crazy sort of design in keeping with the rest of the car (plus the current cards have loudspeaker grilles with no lounspeakers: a bit Focus RS).

Might go for Simon's plain black, or might wait to see what Deutch9 propose to charge for the CF ones they are developing..

This is the link for Simon's now ended sale:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=180359640936
As a £20 bid would have secured them Id expect him to jump at a commission free £20 sale...

With regards to Deutsch Nine; they certainly know how to charge! Kevin Eacock might be able to help with carbon fibre door cards. The flat ones arent brilliant, but Im sure that he or Alex told me that they have a formed CF doorcard available now too...

I still havent been able to get to the link for the £100 a pair flat CF doorcards that we spoke about before: but Ive come across their page again and the prices for non-standard parts are now all over, and now far dearer.
