Dealer or private

[Poorsh]

After agreeing a sale price for a 911 with a private seller I followed through with a PPI. The PPI results came back negative including engine issues. I turned my back on the car and continued the never ending search only to see the same car being advertised by a dealer. I called the dealer to enquire about condition and got false feedback of a clean running example.

I was not surprised by the vendors over estimation but disappointed by the dealer for hiding major issues. It seams as prices have gone to the next level the quality of some dealers has remained low.

Two similar cars, one from a dealer and the other private with £10,000 difference in sales price. The dealers car is lower milage but the private car has had a lot of work done including top end rebuild.
