Is the 987 Spyder worth the money…

[oxnop]

My bet £69k

When I started this thread I could have got into an excellent one for a lot less. I just didn’t want to push my ‘fun car’ budget that far. Now I think I was stupid for not going through with it!

That will easily hit £60K+

Really ?

What were they new ?

Around £55k, my one was just shy of £60k new but only paid £45k (new pre regd 4 miles on the clock)

Personally can’t see it going above £50k

This one is rather lovely.

I enquired on the price yesterday, place your bets and all will be revealed this evening.

If it’s my old car (original reg YS 61***) It’s one of a few 2012 MY and one of the last to leave the factory, then I think perhaps low to mid 60s

[GT4P]

But if it is and the same as Ashgoods that sold for £55k in February then top 50s perhaps as the suns out.

Sort of think the same price wise.

Lovely car tbf.

60's you're getting close to 981 Spyder territory

I did post last year that they were underpriced in the UK when I compared the prices to Germany ..... it is very easy to see these things when comparing markets imo

Edit: as markets do not move in perfect lockstep, but align in the medium term

Bonkers.

I won't go into detail but I wouldn't buy a packet of fags from that place.

Personal experience.

Im afraid I struggle to believe this is genuine, they are not 73k cars. Certainly not at the moment. Be interesting to see what the red one fetches, that will be a clearer indication of the market

We have seen this kind of behaviour before where cars are apparently sold only to turn up at a different dealers
I can’t believe it’s gone from c £55k in February to £73k now

Exactly this nearly a 20k uplift one car with circa 10 owners and a change of wheel colour to when ashgoods sold it

Saw it at the Bicester Scramble today, it looked a very tidy example indeed. Guards suits the car well.

Lovely car and fetched a good price.

Demonstrates the above white car supposedly "reserved" is total nonsense although given who it is I'm not in the least bit surprised.

Lox said:

Decent price and a good guide of market in. a no reserve auction.

I’d agree that the other one at supposedly 70k is currently a bit optimistic.

[LM240]

US sale. Approx £86,000 before fees!!

They do look exceptionally good in silver with silver wheels.

I bought the red auction car, just collected this morning.
Wanted to change wheels to silver but now not sure as the black with silver lip is original..
