Not checked the market, will do my homework and update accordingly.
Market Summary Just Three at PC's Boxster Spyder 05/11 Man Black 1,150 £ 37,900 Guildford, Surrey Boxster Spyder 07/11 Man Black 9,991 £ 36,500 Leeds Boxster Spyder 03/10 Man Silver 14,075 £ 35,995 Byfleet Pistonheads Spyder 2010 Man White 9.911 £35.995 Cameron Spyder 2010 Man White 22.550 £33.500 Private Spyder 2011 PDK Black 9.900 £38.500 Shirleys Spyder 2010 Man White 5.600 £36.995 Yorks Classic Autotrader Spyder 2011 Man Red 5.300 £36.900 Private Spyder 2011 Man Black 7.500 £ 36.990 Oakwoods Spyder 2011 PDK White 7021 £39.990 Ridgeway
Whilst residuals have remained extremely stable over past 18 months especially compared to the 987 S and even the much younger 981's I think 200 of the 237 cars are probably now with potential "keepers" and the balance for sale today are unfortunately not flying off the showroom floors like they were at the beginning of the year[&o] The best of the above bunch is without doubt the Spyder 2011 Man Red 5.300 £36.900 Private Good spec example but has been hanging around quite a time now although at trade money I am sure several OPC's or a couple of the successful Spyder selling indi specialists would be a buyer of this car The worst is the Carrera White/Red Ridgeway example with Turbo alloys to kill off the exterior look[

Yes and noteably the White/Red Ridgeway car by far the worst spec IMO (regardless of colour combo) started at almost £45k. If the Ridgeway salesman is reading this - try reducing price to £35K and I still don't think you will be picking up a sales bonus![ORIGINAL: daro911Whilst residuals have remained extremely stable over past 18 months especially compared to the 987 S and even the much younger 981's I think 200 of the 237 cars are probably now with potential "keepers" and the balance for sale today are unfortunately not flying off the showroom floors like they were at the beginning of the year[&o]    The best of the above bunch is without doubt the Spyder 2011 Man Red 5.300 £36.900 Private  Good spec example but has been hanging around quite a time now although at trade money I am sure several OPC's or a couple of the successful Spyder selling indi specialists would be a buyer of this car The worst is the Carrera White/Red Ridgeway example with Turbo alloys to kill off the exterior look[

I think we can safely say this was a one off specification bespoke car for a one off owner who has now passed the car along ....OR is it on S.O.R. as it would be an extremely brave dealer who would buy this spec for a Spyder IMO[&o] John I am not convinced it would sell at much above £30k! as is but with a wheel change back to original spec it would certainly have more potentialORIGINAL: jdpef356 Yes and noteably the White/Red Ridgeway car by far the worst spec IMO (regardless of colour combo) started at almost £45k.

Agreed. Thanks for the update John, saved me a job. Posting at 5.41 in the morning was a bit keen though, I was in the land of the zzz at that time!
If my memory recalls the Private Red car is not on the correct wheels - I think its on 20's - however I too am surprised it has not sold[&:]ORIGINAL: daro911I think we can safely say this was a one off specification bespoke car for a one off owner who has now passed the car along ....OR is it on S.O.R. as it would be an extremely brave dealer who would buy this spec for a Spyder IMO[&o] John I am not convinced it would sell at much above £30k! as is but with a wheel change back to original spec it would certainly have more potentialORIGINAL: jdpef356 Yes and noteably the White/Red Ridgeway car by far the worst spec IMO (regardless of colour combo) started at almost £45k.
