OPC Warranty Transfrerable?

[deevee]

To the collected brains on the Porsche forum - does anyone know if the OPC warranty is transferable to another owner if the car is sold? If so, is there a cost associated with that transfer?

And before the flaming starts, yes I have tried searching the forum, but if you put 'Warranty' into the search bar, you get a ton of threads back to read through. Anyone would think this has been a popular topic over the the last 6 months!

Thanks for your help

Yes if it's a PRIVATE SALE. No charge, other than a postage stamp.

If it's from a dealer then NO. And don't let anyone tell you different.

Cheers Soovy

I'm getting the warranty put back on mine - just wanted to know if it would be of benefit to a new owner if I sell it this year.

provided of course the plummeting value of my car leaves me with any bloody value left in it still!

Yes - agree with Ves. On the inside back page of the warrantee booklet, there's a 'request for transfer of warrantee' form, to be completed within 14 days of a private sale.

don't do it mate...unless it's for another porker, and no cheating with that Lexus thingy your missus has!

Not planning to Scotty mate. But it's always handy to know these things!

Any progress with your search yet?

...there's a lot of temptation out there at the moment...and being a complete petrol head will only make the bank balance worse off. Not having driven a 996 GT2, I'm interested to see where prices are going...as I think the jury's out? or indeed using an early 996 turbo as a daily driver!

From the multiple threads and links to cars advertised on here it seems like a pretty strong buyers market at the moment.

And you know the best thing to do with temptation - give in to it!

Did you see slippydiff's photos earlier...car (GT2) looked luuurvely!

[deevee]

Beautiful wasn't it!

I'll bet you can just see yourself tooling round in one of those can't you? That'd be the weapon of choice for the 'ring trip!

Good job
