Selling advice

[stephenowen]

I am looking for advice , driven by experiences, regarding the best method for selling my 997. I have owned my 997.1 C2 Tiptronic S for five years and used it very regularly. I am planning to sell next spring/ summer and looking to purchase another porsche product. In the past I have sold other porsches through owner clubs , my 924 went within a couple of days. I just feel its time to part and try another model , but enjoy for another 12 months or so . I was planning on moving on around May next year , it seems a good time to sell a convertible. Thanks in advance for your advice and sharing your experiences.

I’ve almost always sold my Porsche’s through Pistonheads. For the higher value cars, say £40k+ (where people usually need finance) you’d likely need to sell to a dealer.

I’d try Autotrader, Pistonheads and PCGB. Call around the dealers to see what the bottom line is (911 Virgin, Portiacraft etc)

I have sold to an independent dealer using a prominent on-line company ... an excellent experience all round, if required I can provide feedback privately
