Wonder what this will go for?

I'm guessing around £40K, but who knows?

If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.

Tidy 80's 3.2 Carrera's seem to be £50k + so I could see someone paying that for it.

Yeh I'd certainly think so. 10k mile minter manual is rocking horse poo. Only downside is it being a S4 manual not a GT (though it has GT wheels). Interior is also marmite.

As with all auctions you need the right buyer on the day. They'd be much better off selling that through a specialist dealer (assuming there isn't a 40k reserve on the auction!).

2016 registered 928S4’s are pretty rare though.

Probably the nicest 928 interior I’ve ever seen. They’re usually prime candidates for acres of slip on shoe grey leather.

This. I've always liked the 928, but they're invariably (as with any Porsche tbh) disappointing on the inside. I like that a lot though.

I think they've undersold that car in the advert. No sunroof, all the bits of an SE including the 'Sport' badge under the S4 badge it probably is one of the 42 SE cars !

I think you're right - it seems to have everything. Wonder if it wasn't registered accurately because it went to an embassy and perhaps didn't go through the normal channels with the DVLA?

ETA: DVLA Vehicle Check says it was first registered with the DVLA in 2016, hence the error in the ad no doubt. Wonder what the VIN might tell us?

You get all sorts of weirdness if cars are registered at a later date by an importer / garage rather than by the manufacturer / main dealer from new.

*Lies! It's lovely.

It looks like it has visors on the roof behind the seats?

A quick search suggests the engine number would have SP stamped at the end if it has a blue printed CS/SE spec motor other than that it would have a typical S4 vin. Easily overlooked 27 years on as Harry said.
