I went on the internet and I found this....

It's back!!
I would be pretty concerned by the amount of engine tapping at the beginning of the video. It may be that the car has simply not been driven for some time and that the lifters took some time to pressurise whilst the engine was cold. However, the engine sounds pretty terribble to me and it could well indicate tha a rebuild will be required imminently.
This looks like a very unloved car to me - but could yet turn out to be a good project if it is straighter than this terrible attempt to sell it suggests.

Impressive the way it turns into a 3.2 halfway through the video... :dont know:Goose said:
Here's something at the other end of the scale.
The world appears to be going mad for 993 turbos, if the prices are anything to go by. The GBP has been pretty strong against the Euro of late - but even so, €145k.

Pricing appears to be based on low mileage Turbo S prices which this isn't regardless of any equivalent upgrades. If it was an S maybe, but it isn't!
Plus 3 year gaps twice on its history I don't like either!

I've seen quite few of this guy's car reviews.
I kind of like them in a nerdy, geeky kind of a way.
BUT - look at that oil level indicator. WAY, WAY OVERFILLED
And is that a door check strap I hear at 7:53 (right after he remarks on how solid the door close sounds!!)....
