Sounds like it

“ The car was recorded as a Cat D in 2016 as a result of some rear end damage. This has been repaired and the bumper, exhaust and rear passenger light have been replaced. The repair has been inspected at a Porsche main dealer.”

'Some' rear end damage. If it were the collecting cars one, that is a reasonable understatement as it looked a lot more than just a light and a bumper.

I am sure that someone will be along in a minute with the picture of the car following its accident.

its quite a mark up, £8K between the CC sale and this listing. Seems a reach, even by my insane pricing standards.

they say 'we think this is the only Paint to Sample car in Signal Yellow' - must command a serious premium, like a lizard green R would wink


Interesting how they say 'Shouldnt really start the advert with 'Im not really sure this one is for sale' but I think we need to keep this one for a bit longer.' They are obviously bowled over by it. Cossers should go for it I reckon.

Rare car, exclusive colour, if someone has the money and that is there dream car, then 20k is nothing to live the dream.

They generally move their GT3 and GT3 RS stock really quick, even at this kind of price I don't see it hanging around too long.

Where are you seeing cars for sale at £149k or below?

The cheapest car on AT is £159k and it’s white.

I suspect he is referring to stock Ashgood had a couple of weeks ago:
Purple RS with 14k miles and OPC warranty at 152k
Lava RS with 17k miles and OPC warranty at 152k
Silver RS with 23k miles and 148k

They sold all three as were well priced in nice colours.

New one listed. Not seen it before as it is flat black and first non-metallic one I have seen since getting mine 3 years ago. Its had the Tipper treatment and still with warranty. Really nice one.
