Hi all,
I'm a current 928 S4 owner, but have just signed up here, as I'm going to look at an '87 Carrera 3.2 Cabriolet, that has been sat in a field for 5.5 years, which i might take on.
I've no idea yet what i'm going to find. I'm told it was in good working order when it was parked up, but it hasn't been used or driven since.
Obviously we'll need to go over it to check its condition, checking the floor for corrosion is the biggest concern i'd imagine.
We aren't likely to be able to check the underside (ie get it on a ramp etc) before purchase, so may have to take a gamble.
What range (min/max) would you guys estimate a car such as this, in the given circumstances to be worth as it stands? (assuming average condition/mileage and expected weathering)
Also what is likely to need sorting after this amount of time, other than brakes and corrosion?
TIA
