Mine turns 5 years old this March, i specced it and am the 1st and only owner. Long may that continue, no inclination to trade it for a new one. Much rather daily mine than a new 992 turbo or T etc, the new ones feel more cumbersome and have an excess of tech for my tastes.

The price differential is madness i agree, but it’s a reflection of numbers built i guess. If you want one badly enough….
Snap,my car is 5 in march and it's mine from new and nothing out there tempts me away from it.
Snap and snap.

Mines 5 in March, only me as the owner and driver, nothing new from Porsche would make me swap.

Very tight with 918 seats, especially with a fat dog!
I have folding buckets, and these are perfect, except my shortish wife needs to sit on a cushion to see ahead clearly as they are not height adjustable!

Here is my winter wheel setup.

991.2 GT3 touring wheels
9 J x 20 RO 55 245/35 R 20
12 J x 20 RO 47 305/30 R 20

my winter wheels
8.5 j x 20 ro 51 245/35 r 20
11 j x 20 ro 52 295/30 r 20

front.Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 10.4mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 2.4mm less than before.

rear.Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 7.7mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 17.7mm less than before.

winter wheels were originally from my 991 GTS

Would that include the auctioneers premium ? 15% ? + vat ?
This


I think at £140 + 15% we are at £161k
For a higher mileage car and one with an accident of unknown quantity to us, I reckon that’s a pair price to be sold into the trade or private buyer at auction.

Will be interesting to see if it appears at a dealer and what it may retail at.

Not with that registration,
That’s not a current dvla reg.
so I may have it on another plate, or it could be a new find.
Or, because the plate is RJ it might be an import..

Do you have any other info or better pics?
