The car was a non runner when I got it, this was eventually traced to the feed hose in the fuel tank.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, I have the opportunity to move onto something different and with no time to give this car the time or attention it deserves it is time to move on with a heavy heart! I am unsure as to where to position it price wise so any input appreciated! Car is a 1999 Carrera 4 Mileage is 164k miles Manual Savannah beige interior / Ocean Blue Non sunroof The car was a non runner when I got it, this was eventually traced to the feed hose in the fuel tank. It hadn't been in the road since 2016 as a result and I have been very slowly recommissioning it. New Bosch Battery Oil change Filters Wipers Aux belt. Drivers window regulator Crankshaft position sensor Ignition switch It has no service history prior to my ownership unfortunately and I've not had any luck tracing it down. The car is remarkably rust free however the bumpers and a wing need painted. The rear arches are perfect, the drivers side slam panel at the door latch is blistering. The interior is worn! It's currently not mot'd but I'm hoping to get it in later this week. Any thoughts appreciated as to what I should be asking let me know. Many thanks.

POST 2Original post

Based on the information I'd say 11/12k Good luck with sale

POST 4Original post

Photos would help with estimating, but I think with the high mileage and some work required you will have to price it pretty keenly.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the replies so far, yes I realise this is a tricky one to price. Similarly if anyone is interested let me know, the car is near Stirling. Here are a couple of pics -

POST 6Original post

A y2000 996C4 Tip with 120k miles went on 'Collecting Cars' recently for £10,250.

POST 7Original post

What will the final bill be then? That's the important bit.

POST 8Original post

£10,865 including fees so £10.5k-£11.5k would seem about right for a higher mileage manual car in a private sale. I'd start at £12k and take an offer.

POST 9Original post

One went on auction with 134k on it on eBay for £13k: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255335030347 Didn't look good either: 'Condition- Since I bought the car in August 2003 we have enjoyed over 100,000 miles together.- At 77,000 miles I had an engine failure, and a replacement engine (new from Stuttgart) was fitted.- The rear bumper has suffered a small puncture and damaged paintwork (argument with a car park bollard !)- Both door windows have given trouble recently with closing properly.- Earlier this year I had an accident (nothing to do with the car) which damaged my left arm, making driving very difficult, and therefore the car has been parked up since May. As a result the battery is flat.- The car has MOT certificate, valid until 22 March 2022- The car is officially 'off the road" (SORN), untaxed and uninsured.- It will need lorry transportation from its present location in Chipping Campden, GL55. With a bit of TLC this car should give an enthusiast many happy motoring hours."

POST 10Original post

£10k...at best Miley No history Needs paint Needs test. Interior....

POST 11Original post

I agree it's a 10k car. Plenty of C4 cars not shifting in the market at the moment.

POST 14Original post

Obviously not for 10k. My point was the C4 is not a sought after car which is another thing against it. I have been stalking the market 3 times a day for the past 9 months trying to find a nice early C2 and the C4 cars are plentyful.

POST 15Original post

The majority of people wanting to get in to the cheapest variant 911 couldn't give 2 hoots whether its 2 or 4. If it was never sought after by the masses, why did so many sell brand new?
