Not the most expensive I have seen ... I'm sure there was a 73 2.4S advertised for 129K Euros earlier in the year :)

EDIT : just seen, this is + tax !

anyone want to offer over £70K for my car & they can have it,.... maybe ;)

Looks to be a very nice car.
Seems very cheap for a 2.4S. :wink: (Sorry, couldn't help it). :lol:

Anyway.... what's this on the COA?.... Cast wheel ‘Cup’ design 16”

Is that one of the usual inaccuracies you expect on COA's these days?
Or was there such an option available?

That's (probably) the yellow passivated zinc plating used to mimic the original cadmium-plated finish but, as you say, the crossbar looks a bit too 'gold' ...

Unfortunately yes Paul ... the people involved in producing the CoA's nowadays don't seem to be knowledgeable enough about the older models to spot anachronisms.

For instance, the option code in '73 for 6" Fuchs wheels fitted with 185/70 x 15 VR tyres was M400 - the same code was used for 944 models to designate the 16" cast aluminium 'Cup' wheels ... :roll:

Andy, I looked at the wheel codes but couldn't work it out. How long did it take you? :?

Euro 125,000

Cheap ! France and Germany have officially just come out of recession . To celebrate, this dealer has some even bigger bargains.

924GTS just 120,000 euros . :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

1970 US spec 911 2.2S requiring restoration 200,000 klms. 44,000 euros :roll: :roll: :roll:

When will the ludicrous Porsche hype stop.
Soooooooooooooooooo much pompous rubbish is talked about the 'rarity' of cars.
Confuscious says
"The reason some of these cars are very rare is simples
No one fancied them much when they were new " !!
We have export 56 still trying to sell the same 911's for 2 years but at least they are nicely restored cars.

Freisinger stock looks the same as last January. In fact if you check out Porsche in Anamera and Classic Driver you can't help but notice that very little is selling ------ I wonder why
“Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three
decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good "..

1971 911 2.2T sold
1970 911 2.2S Sold but remains within DDK
1959 Lancia Flaminia PF Coupe
