2017 car, 4 owners, 5,000 miles, not a very popular interior/colour but £130k?

Why not? these were £200k last year, utterly amazing value and too many people look a gift horse in the mouth with these.
Not sure really. I'm glad it has gone quickly as it was a proper bargain and if i'm honest, I really like the colour combo.
Was roughly £20k cheaper than anything else on the market so not surprised it's sold..... unless it's about to re-appear at £140k? :-)

It could just be the sale fell through?
It was £130k, then £135k and now £125k I think - something doesn’t feel right.

General rule is to keep ads up until solid - no financial incentive to take an ad down until sold surely.

2019, £145k. Anyone know the list on this?
With all those options and a base price of £209k (I think), must be north of £250k?

Gone already?
The advert has been disappearing then re-appearing regularly over the last month with the selling price changing frequently too.

However Id expect it to sell quickly as it's some £20k cheaper than anything else on the market.

Cheapest 570 I have seen is £80k+, so not sure if you will find one for £65k, but if you can get it with a warranty on it and recent service etc, then you'd have some pretty cheap motoring.

Not sure running costs on the 12C, but they are looking great value and prior to CV, many seemed to think they had pretty much reached the bottom of their depreciation curve and could even start creeping up again as good ones become more desirable - but in the current climate, who knows!
570s hasn't dipped below just under £80k but have dropped roughly around £15k in the last 6 months. Spyders have roughly been £25k more over the same period. 540C's have dropped approx. £7k-£8k in the same period.

Interestingly though a 570S can be had for roughly the same money as a 540C give or take several thousand.

My only gripe is the MCL warranty costs. Ive still got a couple years left on mine but 7.5k for a 2 year warranty is excessive when compared to Porsche.
But are you comparing apples with apples? Thought the Mac warranty covered a lot more than other marques?

The 720s has appeared at a dealer with a healthy mark up

https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202...
Is that a 20k mark up?
The selling price varied over the course of time however if it was £130k originally, that's a £15k markup.

Wonder if it's a SOR?
