Good find. The last guy has had some serious machinery and has come back to a Spyder for the 3rd time. I wonder how many more he will get through[8D] With the current mad scramble for Spyders, can anyone suggest why the PC Wilmslow car is being overlooked? Has it had a mention on any other forums?
Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

I would assume that someone particularly wanting ceramics may also want buckets and someone more in tune with a 'comfort' spec may not want the associated cost risk of PCCB's.ORIGINAL: daro911 Nothing wrong with the specification unless ceramic replacement costs are frightening off a potential spyderman Nothing obvious especially as Silver is a traditional and classic Porsche - 550 Spyder colour Nothing wrong with the pricing or mileage for a 3 year old Porsche Displacement: 3,400 cc Power Output: 305 bhp Drivetrain: 2-WD Transmission: Manual Fuel: Petrol Colour: Arctic Silver Metallic Colour (interior): Black leatherette interior with sports seats leather Vehicle Ident Number: WP0ZZZ98ZBS740095 Mileage: 14,775 m Registration Year: 07/10 Price: £ 37,386 Equipment 19-inch Boxster Spyder Wheel 6-speed manual transmission Cup holder Fully automatic climate control Heated seats Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) Porsche Communication Management (PCM) including navigation module Sound Package Plus including CD storage Sport shifter Sports exhaust system Sports seats Telephone module for PCM Universal audio interface 2 Years Porsche Approved Warranty
That is in one of the best cars on the market right now. It won't hang around for long.ORIGINAL: daro911 Perfect car for young John [
Just spoken to the seller and he said it is SOLD!ORIGINAL: daro911 Perfect car for young John [
Not surprised it sold 1480 miles is seriously low even on one of the last registered Spyders [&o]ORIGINAL: jdpef356Just spoken to the seller and he said it is SOLD!ORIGINAL: daro911 Perfect car for young John [
Forget about the one that got away[ORIGINAL: dyllan especially as it looks like he may take £39k-with only 1500 miles it looks very good value.makes me even more fed up i missed out on the black one[
] What was your buying criteria dyllan? If you want black, what was not for you about the black one that PC Silverstone a couple weeks ago? Sorry for so many question, just being nosey with potential Spyder buyers []
Didn't know Wilmslow had a black one? Jamie is still hankering after their silver one but price to change seems to be going the wrong way! Not surprised the red one went quickly.
I've had the same John. I guess it's like sale prices. The retailer can make a profit by selling for £x but if they can sell it for £x+y (when they're either less desperate to hit a sales target or in their busy season), they will opt to make even more. But as the goods are still profitable at the lower price, they've no reason to hold onto it if someone says they saw them advertise it for less.
The 986 Spyder has a plaque with a build number 1 of 1953 etc on Dash (just behind gear stick) of each car produced. Question - Does the current Spyder have any such plaque to identify the build number? John P.S. Dont say it hasn't got one because they were keeping the weight down![]

John the answer is "NO" The reason is probably because Porsche originally said the Spyder was not a Limited Edition but an additional model to the range just like a 911 Speedster wasn't numbered either [&o]ORIGINAL: jdpef356 The 986 Spyder has a plaque with a build number 1 of 1953 etc on Dash (just behind gear stick) of each car produced.

So does anyone know the build order - ie is there a list of VIN numbers and production dates?ORIGINAL: daro911John the answer is "NO" The reason is probably because Porsche originally said the Spyder was not a Limited Edition but an additional model to the range just like a 911 Speedster wasn't numbered either [&o]ORIGINAL: jdpef356 The 986 Spyder has a plaque with a build number 1 of 1953 etc on Dash (just behind gear stick) of each car produced.
