I ve done exactly this before, wrote on here that I wanted to buy a slot, a bloke replied, we haggled, agreed on 10% of the order value. I then speccd the car for which he had a build slot. We met up and agreed terms upon which we could trust each other. When the car was ready I paid him, he then paid the dealer, I then paid him his 10%. On collection day we met up at a car park 200 metres from the OPC, he went to collect his car, half an hour later he was back with it and handed / signed it over to me. It all went very smoothly and I would certainly do it again. I was happy, he was happy. Job done.
Glad it worked out for you ! :-)The market right now for the current gen is nowhere near the reality. All these ads with the high prices seem to be an effort to keep the prices high. Try to part exchange or sell directly a 991.2 gt3, it will be 105k
Not sure what these people are trying to achieve but the end is near.
992 Turbo S is also in the same boat, part exchange will hover around 125k.
Anyway, I am still open for the next year :-)

Correct D.
In the last 2 weeks I have had 4 OPCs after my 1 owner 2018 manual CS 5 k miler and the lowest bid was £143k highest £147k trade. Reckon these will be back up to £160k in a couple of months due to major limited supply 3 cars only in OPC network last week.
Can you clarify that, are you saying porsche dealer has offered you 147k for your 991.2 GT3? I highly doubt this for 2 main reasons, Porsche dealers have MINIMUM 10k margins (not profit, margins) to play with once they buy a car, a decent 991.1 GT3RS can be found for that price or cheaper.In the last 2 weeks I have had 4 OPCs after my 1 owner 2018 manual CS 5 k miler and the lowest bid was £143k highest £147k trade.

Can you tell me which dealer has offered you that amount, I might be entirely wrong here but any factual evidence will help. My evidence is based on valuations online and calling dealers. What is yours?

Your post lost all credibility when you said £105k for a trade bid on a 991.2 GT3 and £125 k for a 992 TTS. These are at leat £25k behind what OPCs were offering for decent cars last December lol.
We are not in December.av185 said:
Given the cheapest GT3 OPCs start at £144k and only 3 left incl 1 manual which will sell soon thats £39k profit. 
What are you trying to prove here? So if a Porsche dealer is making a profit it means surely their trade/part ex price needs to be high? av185 said:
Do try and understand the market. The mere fact you say all OPCs have a £10k margin shows you don't. Mine charge between £3k and £4k btw irrespective of car price.
Do try and understand the definition of margin and profit. av185 said:
OPCs are desperate for stock and as Apollo rightly says unsurprisingly they have numerous buyers lined up for cars. Easy sells. Every OPC knows who owns which cars and frequent calls re selling are nothing new.
Still waiting for your OPC name.av185 said:
Nope can't reveal which OPCs I deal with but most are in the same boat just have a chat with any OPC buyer of Porsche GTs who will confirm.
Still waiting for your OPC name.Edited by av185 on Saturday 17th April 19:02
