looks like the perfect spec for me, literally has everything even a reasonable colour

Does anyone know about the car? at £135 it's about 10k at least over what seems to be the market value, but they might be interested in dealing.

I'm especially interested in what Porsche are doing with sales right now. I enquired over a week ago and got a non-commital email suggesting they were closed for sales, I've just followed up now. Does anyone know?

Showrooms can do click and collect - you can buy a car and pick up from outside, as I did yesterday with my Macan at Tonbridge OPC.

But this is probably irrelevant, as from Monday car showrooms are back open, albeit the layout will be like navigating your local supermarket.

Phone up the OPC - or ask someone else to - to get their SOR figure; that's the margin you're paying for! For such a new car, barely worth it given the market now, but previously when I've bought cars that are 5+ years old you do benefit from buying from an OPC, as they are fussy with replacing a lot of stuff as they have to provide the warranty.

Let the usual Porsche independents know you are looking for a car, and join the various supercar and Porsche Facebook groups. That's what I'd do, anyway.

Yup...they’re all opening in next week or so. My OPC is open for servicing, I’ve had a couple of cars in this week....they seem pretty well organised. One way markers, plastic screens, UV machines to sanitise car keys etc. They already have a couple of sales staff back.

And agree it’s £10k too much.

I know the owner and the car very well. Lovely car. Feel free to drop me a PM and I can put you in touch.
