This one has been for sale for ages. Its got the big options but nobody seems to want it. Many others with a very similar spec appear and then disappear within hours but this one has been around for months. What's the problem with it?
Someone on here did make an offer of £130K for it, but the OPC declined it.

I love Carmine and may of these cars have 4-5 plus owners. Would be happy to buy a car like this if I didn't have one already, but OPCs can be idiots sometimes and decline offers over what they, in fairly short order, drop the price too.................idiots

I am surprised these's are holding up in price, tbh.

The red with 5 owners, jeeps. I wonder how much they gave the owner for it.??

I went to view that car, the sales process left a lot to be desired. I made the 130k offer which was declined and never followed up on. Not surprised it hasn't sold. It's on SOR and the owner wouldn't allow a test drive either. Makes me smile seeing it still for sale 6 months later.

FWIW it is a lovely car though.

My car has 6 owners, are people surprised that a flippers car is flipped?

It didn’t bother me one bit. In saying that I’ve always, always lost money on cars!

Reference the Nottingham cars. The manual isn't for me but their similar PDK car gets my attention, just poor timing for me given I have several interest rate dependant things i'm waiting to rod through before making any changes, perhaps others are feeling the same.

I've also noticed dealers are doing funny things with prices lately. I'm looking at the 991.2 GT3 primarily with an eye on the 991.1 GT3 RS market. I've seen one RS come on at X, go down £500, then up £1500, then down £2k. In the space of a month since first being listed. It amounts to flower arranging given the asking price and doesn't follow any sense. Some GT3s have seen mild price reductions, but still sit around, whereas others come and go within days, usually those with desirable specs that are priced less aggressively.

Same. One guy even owned it twice, buying it back because he missed it!

It does look nice and I quite like the Carmine Red too however with 15k miles, it still seems expensive. Especially when I was offered the same spec black one that Hatfield had for £130k with only 2,800 miles on the clock (back in October when this red one was still up at £140k)

Aye it is but I suppose if you allowed for a bit of bartering, low to mid 120's is surely about the right price for it at the moment?

The Hatfield car was good value. My own with 200 miles on it was even better value. The right cars priced correctly sell pretty much instantly which just shows people are out there but they aren't prepared to have their trousers taken down.

Re Carmine Red as a colour, I thought it looked fantastic

All down to spec and pricing, the greedy dealer cars are hanging around.

Red car gone now! And very few manuals for sale full stop.

My own just got treated to an interior upgrade. Really brightens her up inside, delighted.

Anyone made any GT3 purchases lately as we move into better weather, track day season etc?

Just sorting my 3,000 km euro road trip, can’t wait to get back into some epic roads. This year will be exclusively Pyrenees, down to Barcelona and then back through Pyrenees, Bordeaux (pick up some supplies!) then home. No Alpine passes for the GT3 trip this year, will save those for the RS4 with family aboard later in the summer!

It's got 5 days to go, it won't end at £125k. They all start looking cheap on CC.

I just bought a 997.2 GT3. I've wanted one for a long time and finally pulled the trigger.
