There's a 2.7 Lux up for auction on e bay with a buy it now option of £4250 which is a little optimistic i would have thought . 128k on the clock and rather ugly looking black sills . Still if he gets close to that figure at the end of the auction i may well be able to justify spending more on my own if values here in aberdeen around the 4k mark - which i doubt :(

Seems rather optomistic but you never know, maybe he will give them an over inflated value for their trade in?
My 944 S with 93k miles is advertised at £2750 including new cam belt service and that has not sold yet, and I'd rather have a (good) 16v 2.5 than an 8v 2.7.

A couple of K is possibly about right TBH. The advert puts me off; all in Caps, no spell checking. Also the black sills scream bodge although they maybe OK & no mention of the important bits like belts etc.
Living in Aberdeen will limit his market as it is a hell of a long way for a lot of buyers to travel.
