[BubblesNW]

Can't see this sitting around at £35k for long.

Peridot (described as Sea Green) PDK with Sports Chrono and Spyder wheels.

Great bargain for someone looking to get into an R

A shame about no Xenons, but nice nonetheless.

Time of the year I wonder?

[mrdemon]

just a part ex price and making 1 or 2 k

very tempting but the advert is shocking as it is on their web site.

Time of decade.

Px thing. I bought an Exige form an Audi garage the same way. Sold three years later for more than I have for it. Great way to buy a car, but a rare opportunity

I phoned and it's now been moved from Stratstone Land Rover Solihull to Stratstone Porsche Sutton Coldfield. I'm waiting for a call back on if the price it was for sale at the Land Rover garage is being carried across, or if Sutton are gonna whack 5K-7K on the price in line with current(ish) values.

I guess Land Rover have no idea of the true value. Expect it to be at OPC for £43+ in the near future...

For that kind of value you could live with the colour

[mrdemon]

I doubt it's going to be that price now from a OPC

Cars now 40k :-)

That's about right given cost of any prep required, warranty plus margin.

Some cost of prep but there should be a good 1.5-2yrs warranty left anyhow... So I would say there is a pretty good margin for them to play with and that's assuming they paid £35k from the original dealer also?

Still, could be a good deal if the OPC are willing to negotiate down on some of that profit margin for a quick sale?

Have they no idea how to use the internet and look at asking prices of other cars?! Not exactly an obscure classic is it.

[mrdemon]

if they had it up for 35k they did not pay 35k for it did they ;-)

more like 32k

as for prep and warranty, the car already has warranty and prep is a quick wash on a car that new,

I have talked to the OPC and he said it was good value, I said it was at 35k but not now at 40k
it's not got , sports exhaust, xenons, leather dash or PCM which are all my fav choice options.
then you have to ask if a PDK car will be harder to sell on a Cayman R (imo yes) so it's not for me at 40k

I bet if you went in with a car with no PCM or sports exhaust they would tell you every one wants those and offer a crap trade bid on it.

It's also done more than Ave miles in Porsche speak which they state as 8k a year and this car is on about 17k miles

Which cars? Are there two now?

[Mermaid]

Not that many cars on the Porsche website, and cheapest one is £40k, but no air con. Has Ceramics though.
