Manual, blue with grey leather under 23k mikes from new FPSH with major done 200 miles ago. 2 owners 2002 yr.
No pse or nav needs a quick spruce but that's it. Private sale??

Sadly, not to much going for it, is the mileage spread evenly its life, regularly run and fettled, does not sound like it if its a bit untidy.
Mileage would be the USP but not if the condition does not match.
Colour is a personal choice........but Lapis and silver leather would not be mine.
Poor spec? No nav no problem but PSE a deal breaker.
Probably £20k, maybe £22 if you invest in a KDS standard detail so its condition matches mileage and hope someone likes lapis blue and doesn't like shout exhausts.

Given age nav would be a disadvantage as it would be the ugly and obsolete PCM1, colour combo not the best but 22k sounds ok if you have full paperwork and service records and invoices

My thinking was a tad more than 22 but not far off. Drives like a new car

No where near 22 k I would have thought, my friend is trading his 53 reg turbo with 30k miles
996 turbo to a Porsche specialist for £26.5k and it's got all the toys and FPSH

Reading this thread, I thought I would go on the classifieds to prove that the OP spec car should be at least £22k based on mileage, etc. However, quite shocked how much the 4s has dropped since I had one...as an example: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3876672.htmGreat value...awesome cars

Suns out now they will start selling I'm sure

I think you would do very well to get 22k private. I bought my c4s from opc 14 months ago. 30k miles. X51, pse, pcm, colour coded hardbacked sports seat, colour coded centre console, litronics, polar silver, opc warranty 23.5k. Basically pretty much every option and that was before the arse fell out of Europe. 18k tops for y
ours.

ours. M8 u are hugely underselling your own car. If the one I mentioned has 2/3rds of the mileage of yours how does that make it less than yours?? Doesn't add up. Yours has the x51 but at 10yrs it's small irrelevant. You have an amazing car at a good price

You have an amazing car at a good price I think the point is that there is more to a good car than a lack of miles.....good options and condition are pivotal. Mankers car is a good example but as he says the dodgy headlamp covers probably knock a grand a side off the resale!!

I think the main differences here are. 1) mine was an opc sale vs yours private 2-4k margin. 2) thi s was over a year ago. 3) x51/pse carries a 1-2 k premium at least, these two options alone were 10 k. 4) I would argue polar silver/dark interior is more desirable than blue/grey which would potentially narrow your field of buyers. 5) financial issues in Europe since last summer and again now, would no doubt have an influence on premium car sales. So all these things considered I think you would be doing very well to get 22k.

They all want low mileage cars
