Porsche 718 Buying advice for New UK buyer
Discussion
Hi everyone
Cross-posting this from the Porsche forum - i'm looking to dip into the market for a 718 Cayman
This is my first time buying a car in the UK so wanted to ask the community any advice about buying particularly Porsches from independent dealers vs an OPC/approved Porsche dealership?
Approved dealerships here seem to have the usual warranty benefts on used cars but the price differential between the OPCs and independents/car supermarkets (at least from the samples i've seen on autotrader) are extreme - like 5-10k GBP for roughly like for like cars. From what i'm reading on this forum, car supermarkets (motorpoint, motordepot etc). seem to be a no-go.
Any advice pros/cons? Also any tips for used car bargaining?
OPCs where I come from (middle east) are amenable to negotiating depending on time of month/year not sure how UK works so any advice appreciated
