Interesting to see that this particular car has now been reduced again and moved to a different car sales.

https://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/...

Is it owned by anyone on here as I assume it SOR?

Does anyone know it’s history when aboard?

Little bit leggy in the miles, but it could make a great car fun if it’s been looked after correctly.

It would worry me that the buyer in 2016 moved it on after a year then the next buyer moved it after 6 months and now this owner also wants to get rid of it after 6 months.

dealer is including official Porsche warranty in the price so it would be a pretty safe buy. you'd obvs want to see the 111-point check and confirm that any issues raised have been rectified by the dealer.

does that check also include an over-rev report?

I’m sat on the fence at the moment, I’ve got to many vehicles which are getting a pain to store as I only have inside parking for 3 cars. I feel it might be better to sell two of my classics which I never drive and my macan gts and buy something like this as a fun car. I can then use my 991.2 every day as originally planned. I’m finding I always pick up the keys for the macan as it’s the more sensible approach and I’m to young to be sensible!

Plus we just picked up another family car for the wife so the macan is not really needed anymore, she felt it was to big and never wanted to drive it...

I thought it looked good value even in lhd ?

That does seem a lot of movement.

It’s been up for a little while also, interesting it’s not being sold in Germany considering it ended up over there.

Wouldn’t the over rev report need to be all above board to get a Porsche warranty?

Not sure, that's why I was asking as have heard people say before that the 111 point check doesn't go into the same level of detail as say an independent PPI.

After looking on mobile.de there is a left hand drive with 21000km (13000miles) one owner,
€95000(£84000).

There are a few LHD GT3 in U.K with similar prices to those in LHD countries but generally I’m amazed at how much of a difference there is, especially with 997.....prices being a lot higher here like for like cars.

991 GT3, seem to be similar in prices.....maybe a 997 price correction is long overdue in U.K or those abroad need to put their prices up?

Even though the prices overseas are cheaper, some are still hanging around for quite some time.......read into that what you will.

997 RS have been on a downward trajectory on mobile.de for a while now and I keep seeing the same cars over and over - don't think many are selling. 997 GT2s are also getting affordable again after being listed at crazy prices in 2016 or so

You made me look, but that is an accident repaired car. The one in the OP is very tempting at that price, as is the white one at TH Boler for £5k more.
