Great Cars but....

Post by sdelan »

Couple of lovely cars on Pistonheads at the moment - maybe it's just the colour ...... :lol:

But are they worth £50k more than my car.....? :shock:

I appreciate the Autofarm car is/was an S - but it won't appeal to the purists.

And the Specialist Cars of Malton example is based on a T.... I do love the ST look though. Makes me want to speak to Alan about some ST wings. :lol: And I presume that Tuthills engine is a treat.

Big money - but great fun for someone !

For a certain buyer I think the autofarm s is v good value. Could easily pay more for a STD s. And in reality have little knowledge as to it's true condition. Plus there are certain brand names in 911 world and rightly or wrongly Autofarm is one of them.

The ST obv doesn't say how much it is but looks a great car of its type. I have seen it in the flesh previously at Tuthills and is v nice

What both these have going for them is they are not backdates

Are they better value than a " normal " car is impossible to answer. Are they better value than building one yourself to the same standard? A complete no brained ( never mind 6 mtgs lead time which gets you finished just in time for winter!

You might find you are undervaluing your car ... genuine RHD T's in really nice condition ( eg no rust & nice paint + original trim etc ) will be over £30K anyway

STD? Sexually Transmitted Disease?

Just back from Villamourha, Portugal, the likelihood is indeed that a 911 is cheaper to run than all the rest on offer!!! Probably safer as well.
