Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

ORIGINAL: flat6
ORIGINAL: daro911 I don't see Porsche bothering with another Spyder when they have all these new models to establish [8D] http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/Secret-new-cars/Search-Results/Spyshots/Porsche-718-roadster-scooped-baby-Boxster-here-in-2016/
But maybe i'd rather they introduce another sports car than a junior Panamera. Although, a junior Panamera would make a great daily driver alongside a Boxster, Cayman or 911 for the weekends and maybe i'd never buy this 718[8|] I dunno... What say you?
I say [:D]Porsche need to lower their CO2's in line with their parents thinking and legislation etc so from that point a 718 makes sense and as they also need to introduce more and more flavours to the current family a Panamera Jnr & Coupe/Cabrio will all add to the VAG coffers and world domination To think 17 years ago Porsche were all but a busted flush rolling the dice for one last time with the introduction of the 986 / 996's and as they say the rest is all history [:(]

VERY[8D]Strange but on the OPC Used Car Locator it lists the model in order of value so why do the Spyder & "R" come out in top place! I would have thought the GTS should have been sitting last in line for the foreseeable[&o]
 
ORIGINAL: Andy Fagan Anyone going to the Porsche weekend at Brands on 20/21st? I'll be with the Speed championship so pop and say hello ;)

Great spec car for Cliff to haggle over and sounds a real enthusiastic owner/seller [8D]61 plate is very late in the day [&o] "61" November 2011 registration (one of the last registered) 13,000 miles Two previous owners Full and documented history Porsche Extended Warranty HPI Clear Tax to May 2015 MoT - not yet due Standard specification: Lightweight carbon-fibre bucket seats with alcantara inserts 19 inch lightweight "Spyder" wheels in the original silver Silver "Porsche" side-script Options: Bassalt Black metallic paint Painted roll-over hoops "Badge delete" option – just a discrete black "Spyder" badge on the rear PDK gearbox with steering-wheel mounted paddles PCM Sat Nav (recently updated with 3D view and full postcode entry) Sports Chrono pack Rear parking sensors Bluetooth Universal Audio Interface (for connecting I-pods, MP3 players etc to the PCM) CDR30 sound package with CD storage Cup holders Porsche floor-mats Carerra White main dials Carerra White Sports Chrono dial History: Originally supplied by Porsche Centre East London I bought the car in November 2012 at approximately 3,000 miles November 2013 – Minor Service and Brake Fluid Change by OPC (invoice on file). Next service not due until November 2015. January 2014 – PCM update carried out by OPC. Current mileage – approx. 13,000 The car has always been garaged under my ownership (on a trickle charger and under cover), and most of the miles have been added whilst using the car on European summer trips. Has two sets of keys, all books, manuals, etc. An incredible car to own, it was well reviewed when new and since then has been tipped as a "future classic". One of only approx. 230 UK cars delivered. I'm happy to answer any questions and serious buyers are welcome to view (SW London).

Must have been the Porsche embossed headrests that sold it, I mean who'd buy it with the rest of the spec?
 
Just had the Spyder MOT'd for the first time ....a pass what else did I expect. The tester also did a health check on the car and commented it was the cleanest car mechanical and body wise he had seen in years [:)] My son works for the main MB garage in Glasgow and gets staff rates .When it was in they where having an events day and two customers asked if the car was for sale. NO[:D] Out of interest the tyres after 8.5K miles Rears 6.00 Fronts 5.70 Michelin Pilot Sports
