I disagree. How much would think it's worth if it had grey interior? About the same I reckon - there are next to no others to compare it with due to the mileage - that makes it an entry level price range car. Likewise the value would be pretty much the same if it had virtually no options on it.

That interior is a horrid colour, it looks like my daughters Barbie dolls with their kit off! When will Porsche learn to make a tan interior that doesn't look vomit inducing?

BTW: It's a non-S with 90k miles, so the price does look right to me

It's just a matter of the environment you find tan leather in.:The same colour that looks good in a trashy TVR would clash with the sophisticated perfection of a 911...wink

Be rude not to biggrin

Or we could have an "Aren't TVR interiors much better looking than Porsche's" thread with a sub-plot of "What's the best carpet adhesive"?

you mean you like glue showing in the joints and flimsy trim?

IMO the colour detailing in Pork interiors is OTT - no need to match the air vents too

£70k plus new for non s - why didn't the guy just buy a S

he would have got sat nav, PSM,PAS etc etc in the price plus a 3.8 engine

price looks ok'ish, saw a S sell (very high sepc) with only 60k miles laugh for £46 k the diff (S versus std plus 30k less miles has to be worth at least £6k more ??

Sure, so the owner(s) has/have lost a few pounds due to the fact that the car has done 90k miles.... but hold on... he has had the pleasure in driving a 997 for 90k miles.

£25k lost for 90K miles = 27p per mile in depreciation. Got to be better then my usual trick of buy brand new and hardly use the car and still lose a small fortune a year later.
