Value of 3.2 Carrera

The value of a 3.2 is at an incredible high and still climbing, these are regarded as iconic Porsche and are beginning to match early 70s cars
.The coupe is most followed by Targa then the rag top.At the end of the day its what somebody is prepared to pay.

Great philosophy - until some scrote drives off with it and you find it's only insured for half it's value, which is the subject of the thread, NOT it's investment potential!
 
I suppose the real value is what they are actually selling for.

Would a thread where people post what they bought and sold at be useful ?

 
I quite fancy a Lambo, can I insure the 3.2 for £150K and then erm, write it off and replace with Diablo [8D]
 
Mark The time it takes to get a valuation from the club they may be worth that![:D] (in my dreams)[8|]
Always fancied a Lambo when I was a sprog
 
Hi All

For those waiting for a valuation I would suggest a call to Cornbury House....................01608 652911.

Have fun

Paul after 3 phone calls to Cornbury House been told it would be looked at each time and contacting one of the directors been promised it would be at the top of the pile still no luck. We were told at the workers conference it should only take 2-3 wks, I applied 6 wks before my insurance was due giving it time to come, now after 10/11 wks insurance obtained no valuation hopefully no accidents
Not a very professional service comes across from the club. I am away on holiday from Saturday if the valuation is not with me when I return will have to go where I know I can get it within the week!
If we are going to advertise this as a service the club gives for club members we need put more resources into it
 
Hi All
Thank you for the comments.
I think the Club has a problem here, if they are offering a valuation service it should be done by an expert in a reasonable span of time (2 to 3 weeks).
It would be better if the Club suspended the service until they can do it properly.

I agree with the comment that the car is for driving, we do between 5 and 8000 mile a year in it, consequently it will never win a concourse competition. However, it still looks good, goes well and make me very happy. This is what we brought it for nearly 13 years ago, we have no intentions in selling it. If the car can maintain its value this is a bonus, it was never the intention to buy it and sell just for profit. The question of valuation only arose when I was offered (?) €50,000 for it on the way to the WOTY, this made me think may be I was still under valuing it as far as insurance is concerned.

I think I will leave the application for a Club valuation, in due course I will speak to my insurer about an agreed value.

We are going to Porsches on the Prom in Llandudno this week end, hope to see some you you there.
Best regards

Igort a reply back after 6 plus weeks ....WRONG MILEAGE by thousands on the car in the valuasion....even though I wrote it dawn AND there was a picture on the speedo ??!!

await still on the correct one coming back
 
interesting thread, i have just had a similar experience.

i was chatting with a fellow memeber at a public event recently, and a guy came along and without hesitation offered my friend £24k for his '88 targa (in pretty good shape). my friend was not interested so the conversation stopped, but i got the impression this buyer would have gone higher.

as a result, i took my '87 coupe to my specialist at the weekend to get a valuation, and without hesitation he gave me a formal valuation of £30k. i am due to get the kidney bowls done soon as just showing a few marks, and it was suggested with this complete i should expect the valuation to be £35k! my car is otherwise a pretty tidy, original body, 130k mile with VFSH black coupe.

happy days!

i am looking to update my insurance value immediately . . .
 
Values do seem to be all over the place. I've had all sorts of suggestions of value from £15k to £25k! I'd be happy to hear opinions of what owners think I should price my car to get a sale - For sale on PCGB

Thanks, David
 
Seems strange that the cabriolet is less in values with porsches , with other modern classic marques the rag tops seem to command more?

Cabriolets and Targas are worth less because these are drivers cars. Without the roof the car has a lot less rigidity (something like 20% of what it had), also you've lost that iconic roof line. Having said that the difference in price is narrowing as it gets harder to find a nice coupe, demand will continue to outstrip supply! Maybe someone could actually remanufacture, is it possible to get a brand new shell? Does the tooling still exist?
 
Just out of interest, I called Hagerty in Towcester , my Supersport was insured for £20k without any hesitation they increased it to £35k, cost me an extra £60 .

I really think people are trying to cash in on these cars , there are loads still for sale at the same old garages , with there stupid high prices .
