I will be getting a Peter Morgan or similar report regardless of what I buy or where I buy it from. Not sure if Peter Morgan offers nationwide coverage? Not looked into it fully yet to be honest.

I'm not to sure about the splitter on the bumper on the third one, it could just be the pictures though to be honest. And the possible gap in service history is a little off putting maybe?
Sounds like horizon blue

The guy wants 40K for a car that he says has been well looked after and then shows us a picture of the engine bay full of mud.

I think I just bought your old car!

You are right on the rear left bumper mount - currently being cut out, the other rust seems to have been dealt with during the trailer queen resto's respray. I have the engine and box out at the moment to chase out any remaining rust on the underside, the rest of it doesn't seem too bad and planning to get her back up to A1. Any other bits you can remember offhand that needed a look?

Yes thats the one, nice honest car so will be lovely once you fettle a few bits. I ran it on cups for a bit but really preferred how it drove on the D90's:





It was quite wet around the thermostat and the filter to thermostat oil line was routed incorrectly which requires the tank to be pulled to correct, might be worth a look if you are getting things right. A few of the heater servos needed some love to get them going and in fact I think I left one in the glovebox which wouldn't come back to life.

I didn't do much with it while I had it and if fact lent it to a mate for a year or so as he had a garage to store it in but he didn't do many miles in it either. Went well for a standard 964 as I remember but it did smoke a few times when it got hot stuck in traffic. Good luck sorting the bits out and hope it turns into a good C2 for you.

Default 1989 964 C2 128k Miles

Chaps, As promised here is the '89 C2 up for sale at £31,500 (firm).

I have driven and inspected the car. The engine is 'sweet as a nut' and it drives very well indeed. Whilst it looks great in the pics be advised that it does need some work in the usual places - front screen scuttle and some minor blistering on the trailing rear wings/bumper joints. Sports seats are very good but interior needs a clean. Shod with near new Bidgestone Potenza S02s on turbo twists? H&R Blue lowered springs what looks like Boge (original?) dampers.

Engine tray absent - couldn't see any oil leaks and G-Pipe fitted. No evidence of a top end rebuild so buyer would need to do the usual checks etc.

Looks like the car was stored between 2007-2012 based on the MOTs which are complete from 1996 to 2007 and then 2012-13.

Service history present up until 2013 (previously serviced by PCT, JZM, and several OPC along the way. New clutch @102k miles. Under bonnet sticker present.

Last major service @ 126k miles on 04/06/2013. Inspection new discs/pads and 4-wheel alignment @ 128,077 on 08/10/2014

Sorted this is I'm sure a c£40k in the current climate. It looks like an honest unmolested example. If you want any further details drop me a PM and I can put you in touch. Car is in West Yorkshire for viewing.

(BTW - It's not my car)

I am after a 964 shell rolling or not, doesn't matter.

Condition or flavour (C4, C2, tip, coupe, targa, cab, LH or RH drive) not important but needs to have an ID with a logbook and not a CAT D or C or with heavy accident damage.

Please PM me if anyone knows of one for sale

Thanks,

Fellow Rennlister Laurence has put his RS up for sale. Competitively priced I would say:
