[928uk] Recent Auction at H and H 29th November Buxton

[jonathanrackowe at gmail.com]

Not surprised about the GT. It needs £20K of work.

I didn't see the S4 manual, so won't comment on that.

The GTS needed some work and TLC, and it was an auto, so while £14k sems a
little low, I'd have been surprised if it had made more than £20K.

I reckon the sold figures reflect the fairly significant cost and effort of
restoring a neglected 928. Not many people have the desire, time or
inclination to work on these cars themselves, and the low values of good
examples (remember the 928 is a niche car - perhaps you might say a
"marmite" type car) doesn't make it worthwhile to pay workshop costs to have
them restored. Plus the push towards EV doesn't help classic car prices
generally.

clock sold for £5400
