Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

Weather wise it's nice here at Chorley Magistrates Court as I wait for my client to turn up for sentence. Perhaps the recommendation of custody in his pre-sentence report has put him off although personally I enjoy a challenging plea in mitigation. Who said its grim oop North! Have a great day Rob and remember TTIUWP. [] Edited to add - new page new pic! Apologies for the quality, security didn't seem too impressed!

Still wearing the same suit you have in 2006 Rob? Just out of interest. How do you get paid if your client gets a custodial sentence? (Or do you charge 'Up Front')? Cheers,

ORIGINAL: MrDemon I love my R, It's the better all round car to be fair. then you have to think about living with one every day so you want some toys. My R is fully loaded, But again Spyder wheels are a must have, as is AC and PSE For me I love the full leather, both my cars are full leather, it ups the inside no end. the green is awesome colour every one seems to like it in real life. I wanted red but you never seem to see red ones for sale

From the advert pictures I suspected the bonnet was "Off colour" so I had some pictures sent through for the peridot Cayman R in East London OPC http://ucl.porsche.de/ucl/plsql/uk/clients.show_car?sid_=49257182SQA4RTBPJ48O2G1WXVIR4CA&pnr_=1&lnr_=3&caller_= and it looks a bit like Josephs coat The colour difference between the bonnet and surrounding panels is substantial. That and the mileage is enough to put me off.

It's way older than that [] This particular job was legally aided. Otherwise we have to charge up front these days - it is often the nicest people you get the best results for that then take forever to pay... Andy - see what you mean about that R in London - even the pictures off the advert show a terrible paint match for the bonnet. Interesting to see that a Cayman R is still advertised the wrong side of £50k when the dearest Spyder is under £40k now.

Rob - We still have this one at Almost £44K

ORIGINAL: jdpef356

ORIGINAL: daro911

ORIGINAL: jdpef356 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![]

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 potential

I think they must be reading this forum - The Ridgeway car has a new price - take a look:- http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201305297000946/sort/default/usedcars/maximum-age/up_to_3_years_old/engine-size-cars/3l_to_3-9l/price-from/25000/model/boxster/make/porsche/onesearchad/used/onesearchad/nearlynew/onesearchad/new/radius/1501/saved-search-id/2c92962d3a4eee4e013a5d9f81340012/keywords/spyder/postcode/cb45bx/page/2?logcode=p [][][][][][]

It was comparing 3 generations of Boxster and whilst the very latest and greatest was as expected the surprise was the Spyder especially on the track. The 986 was the other extreme take a £7k Boxster chuck another £7k at it and make yourself a great fast well sorted Gen 1 Boxster All 3 cars were winners for different reasons and all 3 pleased the tester no end[]

Was it S.O.R. and now back with original owners![&o] or Was it irresistible and with a new owner at a record high price too[:-]

If it was two below - the new owner is certainly in the Red one way or another![&o]

Saw this music video on TV today. If you pay close enough attention you might see a Porsche[8D] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oe1wtkkt9-E

 

[rob.kellock]

No. Watched it 3 times now and I have no idea what you are on about. []

 

[jdpef356]

Like Rob I've been watching since the wife went to bed - its time for me to turn in now.[] Still haven't seen the car and Ive seen it 174 times!

 

[flat6]

Oh well, no doubt you both enjoyed the rest of it[8D]

Great find flat6 but you need to get yourself down to Spec savers "no Porsche" [8D]
