Porsche 911 930 Turbo Market values
Market values for the Porsche 911 930 Turbo.
On recent UK evidence, the centre of the market sits around six figures. Marque.cars records a UK median of £100,125 from 29 verified auction sales between late 2020 and September 2026, with a spread from £52,500 to £180,500 and a 12‑month median lift of 17.8%. That chimes with what we see privately and at dealers: tired or non‑original cars still struggle, while crisp, documented examples transact briskly. Specification matters. Early 3.0‑litre cars (1975–77) are scarce here and carry rarity appeal when correct and rust‑free. The 3.3‑litre cars (1978–88) make up the bulk of UK supply; condition and provenance dominate value, with factory right‑hand drive, matching numbers and comprehensive history files drawing the strongest bids. The 1989 model year five‑speed G50/50 cars sit at the top of the regular range in the UK, especially UK‑supplied RHD coupes with low mileage. Factory SE/‘Slantnose’ cars are a separate conversation and can exceed the bands below when provenance is unimpeachable; conversions do not. Mileage and originality price cars as much as year. As a benchmark, a 1987 930 Turbo showing 26,000 miles made £103,500 in January 2021 (reported by marque.cars). That was before the more recent uplift and without today’s scarcity premium for UK‑delivered RHD cars in untouched order. By contrast, the lower end of the recorded range typically represents LHD imports, cars with stories, or those needing corrosion and engine work. The market is thin. Twenty‑nine verified UK auction results in six years is not much stock changing hands, so single sales can move sentiment. US auctions have printed some very strong results in 2026 (DriveIndex cites a $140,000 median across 109 sales and several late‑summer results above $300,000), which underlines global demand, but UK prices and RHD premiums follow their own path. In practice, most sound, matching‑numbers 3.3‑litre coupes with evidence of recent major service work and presentable cosmetics trade in the £80,000–£135,000 range. Better‑than‑average mileage and crisp originality pull those towards the top of that band. Truly low‑mile, UK‑supplied RHD cars, late‑build examples and cars with exceptional histories can extend to £150,000–£180,000 at a UK auction or from a recognised specialist. Cabriolets and Targas usually sit behind equivalent coupes unless mileage or provenance compensates. Heavy modification, colour changes and over‑restoration depress value.
In the UK, most usable 930 Turbos now change hands in the £80,000–£135,000 band, with exceptional, low‑mileage and late‑build cars stretching to £150,000–£180,000. Recent UK auction data show firmer prices over the last year, but the market remains thin and condition‑led.
UK auction data compiled by marque.cars show a median £100,125 from 29 verified domestic sales between November 2020 and September 2026, with recent results ranging £52,500–£180,500 and a 17.8% median rise over the past year. A reference‑point sale: a 1987 car with 26,000 miles achieved £103,500 in January 2021 (marque.cars). Supply remains thin, which amplifies the effect of standout cars. In the US, DriveIndex reports a $140,000 median across 109 sales, and late‑summer 2026 results up to the low‑$300k range, highlighting international appetite; UK RHD values, however, continue to price on local scarcity, provenance and originality rather than following the very top US prints.
Our view is that the UK market holds a mild upward bias for the best examples. UK‑supplied RHD coupes with full histories and correct presentation should remain firm and may tick up as stock continues to age out of casual ownership. Average cars are likely to be broadly stable, with buyers increasingly selective on corrosion, engine health and paperwork. LHD imports and modified cars will need to be keenly priced to move. Expect more separation between top‑tier and driver‑grade cars rather than a uniform rise.
High and well‑established. The 930 is the first turbo 911, closely linked to the 934/935 era and central to Porsche’s late‑1970s/1980s identity. Evidence suggests long‑term demand will continue to favour originality, matching numbers, UK‑supplied RHD cars and late ’89 five‑speed examples, with early 3.0‑litre cars prized when correct. Over‑restored or heavily modified cars will lag. For long‑term ownership, buy the best history and most authentic specification you can, and preserve that integrity; it is what the market consistently rewards.
