I sold my 991.2 18 reg Targa 4 GTS in December 2021 to Romans International for £97K ( I paid £117K for it in June 2019) and checked WBAC's the other day and noted that they would offer £65K for it.
Although WBAC appears to be a very good indicator of values for more regular cars, I wouldn’t put too much faith in it higher up the market. Sold my GT4 last October. Made enquires at 3 OPCs to sell it. All offered £10k more than the WBAC valuation.

Funnily enough I mentioned my targa to Romans when I was there looking at another car and they wouldn’t take it as it has too many miles on the clock . . 18,500 !!

I’m thinking of selling my 2018 targa GtS - should I wait until the sun has come out ? ( could be a long way away. .) or just see why I get for it now ?
What spec do you have ?

Not sure WBAC are that good an indication. Just did a quick check on my 22 GTS on WBAC and Carwow. WBAC offering 93k and Carwow 105k

Interesting that as they presently have a couple of non-Targa 992's , one 20 reg and one 21 reg ,with more than 20000 miles on the clock. Mind you their stock does seem higher than usual.

Today's counts...



and



Looks like West London went from 7 911s last week to 30 as of today!
thanks tescor!

looks like 911 numbers starting to head back up. expect taycan numbers to start rising again as production has restarted so porsche will be forcing opcs to take them again.

Autotrader shows some price increases since Dec. Here's a good example....



Probably no surprise that the majority of these are convertibles, but there are also a few coupes too.

Base Carrera for £136k? What planet are they on?

That would have got you a brand new 992 GT3 at list not too long ago

It also shows hefty price decreases. I can't post them now as I'm not on Chrome.

Bear in mind the offer from WBAC is an actual offer to purchase the vehicle (you sell to them direct). The figures from Carwow and Motorway are estimates on what it might sell for - possibly.

I'm fairly astonished to see new 911's in stock and being sold at a discount in the UK.

I sell new Porsche in the USA. I recently ordered a C4S for a friend and customer of mine (also a British chap). He's been on my waiting list for a while and he'll get his car in May. Just before Christmas, as I was getting his allocation confirmed, his Dad walked into a dealer in the UK and bought an almost identical car off the floor with a $10k discount. We still have waiting lists on all 992's, the shortest of which is an estimated 9-12 months on a Carrera or Carrera T and we get calls from all over the US so I know the situation is the same nationwide.

Interesting, I’d say the state of our economy has a lot do with it? I’ve just read 25,000 companies folded in the UK last year, quite sobering really..

It will pass but there’s no doubt the worlds changing fast!

The Porsche USA is offering 7.9% apr on a 992, compared to 11.9% here, massive difference to monthlies. Plus a 992 T for example comes in around £95k compared to our £106k.

18 months back we were a bit cheaper than you, UK has fines planned this year of $20,000 for every car Porsche sells if 22% of all cars sold are not EVs, so Porsche have no doubt priced that in to the price as it was only 11.5% last year.

Your retail finance price of £2k a month over 60 months and then own it, is what many are paying here, and after 60 months they have to pay another $60,000 to keep the car.

That’s probably why they can easy hold out on prices in the uk as they have been!

Really good post. It shows clearly why one must really want to finance a Porsche for a period and then they still haven't even bought half of it. Wow.

A base T here is $126,550 which is UKP 99,600. UK price is UKP 105,700. But our prices don't include sales tax, yours do include the VAT. Ave sales tax is 7% so add that and we're at exactly the same price as the UK.

PFS rate is 7.99% but on 911's it's usually a moot point as many buyers stroke a cheque.
