No enquiries-have a priced it too high?

Is it for sale anywhere else?

I don't know anything about 44 Turbo prices, but I do know you should offer car to widest possible audience! I recommend to people looking for a car that they are more likely to find well-cared for examples on enthusiast site like this, but a lot of people don't look beyond autotrader/pistonheads (latter especially for performance car)

Also expanding the description a bit will not do any harm. Cover things like the condition of the sills, the date the belts were changed, is it a 220 or 250 bhp model and I can't quite make it out but does it have a sunroof? All things I was looking at when I bought mine and the type of thing people are looking for. I'm not to sure about the price but I've seen good condition 250bhp turbos for sale at around the same mark and you have ono on the price.

Thanks for the advice
Van

Good luck

It's the right year and has the right lightweight wheels for a Turbo S If it is a special edition S then i would be making a point of that aswell. Just thinking now did the S have a sunroof and leather interior or were they all silver rose colour with that pink interior? Try to confirm if it's a 220hp 951 or 250hp 952 engine to clarify for buyers. Good price for a 952, top end for 951 IMHO although it's criminal asking less for such a car. Good luck with the sale mate.

Well I have a Turbo S that's not pink and has/had linen interior and Frenchy has a Black one. Check the engine no to see if it's between 47J00001 - 47J01830

Cheers Dave for confirming that, couldn't remember how Porsche worked it with the colour combos You could have a turbo S there Van

S models were all without sunroofs I believe so not an S

3100 , blimey anyone would have bitten his hand off at 3,100 surely ?

I saw it at nearly 5,000 and would have dreamed of offering two thousand less just shows you !

I had to sell it really, as my back is REALLY bad and surgery may be in the offing-so I took the offer.
Noone expressed any interest at the higher price
Van

Sorry to hear you didn't make near your price but more importantly, I hope that your back gets sorted soon

Cheers
Andy

Well said! I spoke to Van and wish him all the best. I'm still gutted I didnt pull my finger out and buy the car now though!

My ex wife had major back surgery and I remember the pain so do sympathise! If my square dash had already sold I would have gone for a look at this one as it looked tidy and not too far away
