Has anyone seen this http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/p...

Its a right dogs dinner at the front with what looks like a home spray job on the bumper.
Its also not got black surround headlights? I thought they came with headlights in black as standard?
Looks st.

Black one just added on PH classifieds - has the tacky looking Aerokit though.

Nice spec apart from the Aero kit. It can't be easily removed either.

the black one at Silverleaf is really nice at 92k but no bloody GTS pack so you get swathes of plastic!

Looks terrible...like an aftermarket 911R lookalike. You could order the dynamic lights without the black. the surrounds also look aftermarket.

Going to pop into my OPC to remove the rear aero spolier and just keep the ducktail.

Just in case anyone hasn't noticed, this car has full leather to the doors and dash but with no GTS pack.
I'm not into white but I think it represents good value for 90k from an OPC. There will be a discount there to be had too as we're ending the third quarter.

Basic leather GTS pack I think. I looked at this car and from memory it is filled with air fresheners and I think someone has smoked in it. That was an instant put off for me.

Absolutely. I mistakenly bought an Alpina D3 years ago that had been smoked in, thinking I could do something about it.... Nope...

Anyone else surprised by prices? 14k miles and over £90k?

No, market is currently very strong and they are a great car. Release of 991.2 may have an impact depending on the reviews and if people want to switch to a Turbo engine.

I agree that prices aren't consistent. Some higher mile cars are the same price or within a whisker of cars with a few thousand on the clock.

The Bristol one at 17k miles in Carmine at well over 90k sold in about a day!

They move very quickly with the right spec as in GTS pack...

agreed spec is important for re-sale values.

I'm kicking myself as I passed on a nice Black one with 11k miles at 89k. I should have bought it !
