Just needs to be right buyer right time I think. My poor cars sat in the garage for a couple of weeks now as I need to put some miles on this ahead of Spa as the old mans away.
First world problems and all.
Whilst this is no doubt a more impressive car, it isnt £60k better which shows just how good the little Cayman is.

Silver non bucket seat (all other desirable options to be fair) CR at Williams Crawford sold. Within days of advert. 24k miles. 42 grand.
So why does that sell and other better spec cars stick for months ?
Maybe buckets are not what people want?
Why has the black one at Perth not sold?
Surely they'd take an offer on it ?
Its been on sale for half the year !!!
I had a white one for sale with everything (32k miles and it had a year op warranty) apart from buckets could not shift it privately. Trade bids.32-35k. Had A few bids privately with folks trying low ball. I traded for a Ferrari 430 and got a little bit more than 35k. It went to Opc Bolton who had it for sale at 42 k, probably sold for 40k, was on for about 9 weeksSo why does that sell and other better spec cars stick for months ?

Had a mate who went to see it at Bolton and they put new front tyres on, was not due a service for another year. I had a g techniq ceramic coat on it. paint was corrected and kept immaculate. However somebody had washed the car during prep and heavily swirled on display

Out in Angouleme, had a fab day yesterday sampling the local roads in the forests near Brantome with a mate in his 911.
It’s the first time I’ve really pressed on in the car since I bought it....and it’s absolutely effin brilliant!
The power delivery is perfect, the chassis copes with everything thrown at it, braking is powerful and linear. Perfect day out.
Back in Angouleme, we spotted this:

LHD (obviously) PDK, 45k kilometres, buckets, A/C, no PSE....

Rather hopeful one thinks

Probably not as hopeful as you might first think.
French chap I was chatting to on Instagram said how expensive the CR is in Europe and when he was after one, ended up buying a BMW 1M and got himself a Lotus Elise with the change vs the price of a Cayman R.
This come about as the 1M was also on my shortlist when I got my R as they were both similar money £40/£45k

No, if it's good, it shouldn't matter.
It's stuck for bloody ages though when other cars I thought were strong money with poorer spec, have sold
It may well go shortly now it's been dropped, but I'm stuck at the Ring til Sunday and possibly moving house imminently so can't concentrate on an R (sadly)...

Hmmm...
Anyone know of this car? Spec is almost spot on for me but why are the front bumper decals missing? Has it had paint? A bumper? A minor crash?
They've had it for most of this year if not more, why has no one snapped it up?
I saw this car earlier this year, I mentioned it in this thread.Anyone know of this car? Spec is almost spot on for me but why are the front bumper decals missing? Has it had paint? A bumper? A minor crash?

Its a nice one and low miles...but if I remember correctly it was missing PDLS (no headlight washers) not a deal breaker just fit a set of LED's and its sorted.

Congratulations Joe as said on Insta.
Stunning car and one that i actually considered myself. All the right bits and the rest can be tidied up at your leisure.
Cant wait to see more pics of it
