996gt2 Clubsport @ JZM..............

[Xpuffin]

.....................Sold.
Can't see the new owner getting much of a discount so soon after it was put up for sale.

[W1TAK]

As most of the current 996 GT2 owners on here keep saying these will be north of £100k before you know it, if potential buyers dont take the plunge soon it will be toooooo late!!!

Went for full price so I was told by previous owner of car. Snooze you lose in this game:-)

What happened to the Aspect Cars silver GT2 that was for sale recently, wasn't that the one that Jessica was involved in a non fault accident in from memory?

Reg ended in GOB?????

That had comfort seats didn't it, wouldn't be surprised for that car to surface at another dealer.

As always these need inspecting or you need to know what your looking for, and sometimes the lower priced cars are priced that way for a reason.

Probably because the front bumper is hanging off?

[m33ufo]

Could well be the Aspect car. It was up at £55K with them. Unfortunately the previous thread on the actual car was removed...

Same car I'm guessing, non-stitched steering wheel airbag, silver center console, comfort seats and what I term the "X50 Option" tailpipes. As ever Caveat Emptor .........

There may well be nothing wrong with it (from a post repair perspective....) But it needs an indepth inspection by someone well versed in the GT models (and specifically the subtleties of the 996 shell once crashed) to establish that fact once and for all. Of course such an inspection should involve interrogation of the ECU logs too

Well this one from an OPC looks a steal at £60k and the comfort of knowing is got a warranty and had a decent inspection

I realise alot of purchasers dont like the comfort seats but you can swap then easily with buckets for a few quid

It won't have an OPC warranty, it's greater than 10 years old.

An interesting comment, and one that's open to dabate. I stand to be corrected, but my guess is an OPC can put a 12 month warranty on any used Porsche once it's been through the required inspection and had any remedial work carried out by their workshop, I suspect they can do so irrespective of the age of the car ? However once that warranty expires after 12 months, you would indeed be on your own and unable to purchase an Approved Used Warranty.
As I said, all the above is conjecture on my part.

It's not a Porsche Approved car. There is no Porsche Approved warranty.

If you take a look at the Porsche used car locator and select 996 you will get no returns. If you remove the Porsche Approved tick from the box then you'll discover 4 cars of which this GT2 is one.

Indeed, Alcon steel (non standard) discs too.

[unclepezza]

It's being offered with a supplying group used car warranty, as already stated it's outside the scope of the standard OPC warranty.
