Values are simple to me.
They are what YOU think they are worth to YOU.
If you are trying to guess what YOU think the MARKET thinks its worth then its a waste of time unless you are a dealer as its their job to find a value as of now - but they base their opinions on net margins, speed of sale, potential customers etc etc etc etc etc etc etc
Whenever anyone comes up with yet another valuation thread I just say what I would spend on such a car. Not what I think anyone else thinks its worth as to be honest lots of people say I think its worth 'X' but would they spend their own 'X' on that car....would they hell!!!
So a restored, non-original panel (guessing accident damaged at some point) but excellent RS with NO service history at all is probably worth circa 40k to me to have a good time in.
If its a complete dog that needs restoring (prob 10-15k if needs previous damage doing properly, repainting, parts etc) then its circa 40k less whatever it costs to get it to that standard. Its not rocket science.[8|]
So ask yourself would you spend 40k on an unkown foreign RS with no service history, non original panel car etc or would you save another 10k or so and get a known quantity with service history to boot...?
For me the margin between the unkown quantity and the known quantity has to be much greater to justify buying something like this for say 40k....unless as I say its a fully restored minter....because over time you can build history and the quality of the car will always stand up to scrutiny if its minty (not the colour).
I think I best refrain from posting my personal opinions on values in future. It seems I get quoted 10x more than anyone else. []
Yes i like to instigate sensible, feet on the ground debate and of course I throw you all the occasional line as I know you all bite....but its not my fault you bought a gaylord car colour now is it[][]
Who would have thought the 964RS Register forum, the most active, fun and lively PCGB forum(especially to non-members[]) would slowly deteriorate into being duller than the 930 Turbo owner posters on Pistonheads with 85% of all posts being about car values.....[]
Anyway off for an all you can eat carvery - £3.65. THAT'S VALUE!! Bet you soft southern pooftas cannot get that at your local[][][]
ROLL ON OULTON PARK - I NEED AN AIR COOLED, SCREAMING, LIGHTWEIGHT RS FIX!!!!!!!
