Re: Any Really Nice G50 3.2s For Sale? Now Found One, Thank

No, not the Hairpin car. Similar but lower mls and wasn't advertised in the mainstream. Picking it up in a couple of weeks, so will provide more info then. I did find a small nucleus of potentially suitable G50s (late, low mls, perfect condition/history - PS, JZM, Avantgarde), but with top end price...

Value of NOS Genuine 2.7RS Lwt Front and Rear Bumpers

About 12 years ago, I bought a pair of genuine NOS front and rear 2.7RS bumpers off Autofarm (£900 each IIRC). Carefully stored them, so never used.

Any idea of their approx. current value?

thanks

2015 Christophorus - Issues 371, 372, 373, 374

Just realised Porsche didn't send me these copies.

I don't normally keep old car mags, but I do have Christophorus going back to the '80s.

They are available on eBay, but if anyone has these four then happy to give something for them.

thanks

Re: Wanted - G50 Carrera Coupe

Easter bump.

Still looking. Found an exceptionally nice Cab if anyone is interested.

UPDATE: Found a very pretty Coupe that ticks all the boxes. Very pleased.

Re: Any Really Nice G50 3.2s For Sale at the Moment?

Making some progress, and definitely decided on a Coupe.

However, if anyone is interested in a really nice, immaculate, low mls, impeccable history, late G50 Cab, then the car Nick spotted seems like bit of a gem - and sensibly priced in today's climate.

UPDATE: Hooray, now found one :cheers:

Re: 3.2 G50 Carrera - Coupe v Cabriolet

No, its not for investment, although I would hope that, bought wisely, it would be a fairly safe place to spend the money these days. It's more about having a first class example of a classic aircooled 911 in the garage, that gives me a nice warm feeling when I look at it, and doesn't disappoint whe...

3.2 G50 Carrera - Coupe v Cabriolet

Following on from my 'wanted' thread; what's the cognocenti's opinion of the Cab? Assuming a perfect, low mls, pristine history, 3.2 Cab - could it be the perfect classic air-cooled 911 to keep for sunny days and fun blasts, roof up or down - or will a Coupe always be better 911? (I know some people...

Re: Any Really Nice G50 3.2s For Sale at the Moment?

Nick Moss has put me in touch with a very nice 3.2 G50 Cab. Haven't seen it yet, but it ticks ALL the boxes - and sensibly priced compared with an equivalent Coupe. Of course, first preference would be a narrow bodied Coupe, so just need to be sure that I'd be happy with a Cab (although I did have a...

Re: Any Really Nice G50 3.2s For Sale at the Moment?

Yes, also saw that, and yet another very nice car, although it has been for sale for quite a while.

But I am looking for a car with a genuine low mileage. I know, I know :?

Re: Any Really Nice G50 3.2s For Sale at the Moment?

40k miles you say? How about 41k? You won't be happy with the price, however: http://www.avantgardecars.co.uk/cars/2214-2/ Incidentally, I enquired after the same from the same dealer approx. 18 months ago (is that correct Nick?) and was told the price was a firm £50k. I couldn't my head around tha...
