Well done Bally-Mick! @bally4563
Looks a cracker. I'm sure you'll be standing by it in no time at all, potentially. 👍🏻
Cheers, Baggers.

Very bad luck.
I recalled seeing this on th'Bay tuther day when I read your post: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/234976386550?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=z6Efp5jZRgu&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=6Rw_oE--Qpq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP
(NB. I have nowt to do wit' seller and can't vouch for this donkey, just thought it could be a more inexpensive option).
Good luck.
Cheers, Baggers.

I've just ordered front & rear discs and pads for my 986S.
Mintex front discs, Pagid rear discs, Textar pads front & rear.
£187 delivered for the lot, from a combination of eBay, Halfords & tradevehicleparts.co.uk.
Cheers, Baggers.

It's an aftermarket 'Sport / Sport Plus' button, in relation to throttle map / behaviour. Nothing more, nothing less.
But folk who don't / haven't had Sport buttons in their Pork don't typically pipe up saying that Sport buttons are useless / inffective. Indeed some folk actually pay £big-bucks to have them retrofitted.
As per the thread title....
Cheers, Baggers.

These type of leads only do power, they do not carry date
Oh. Sorry / thanks.
Every day's a school day!
Personally I still prefer a nice CD.

This has been on my AT watch-list for 2 months. For no other reason than it's cheap (for the current / recent / pandemic market).
Looks tidy enough from the pics.
Now would be the time to bid low & firm.

How does one get a feel for the pricing of 718S cars?
For example, WBAC is saying a value of £33k for that vs a ticket price of £42k
£9k difference seems like a lot... I get that dealers need to make a profit and there is a cost for a warranty... But I guess something like a £5k differential between trade in and asking price would be reasonable... £9k is pretty steep.
It's also not just that orange car. Other cars are similar. E.g £8.5k differential... Okay that one has a 2 yrs OPC warranty, so that is worth say £2k.
Are dealers online valuations lowballing the value of the cars and are the online valuations reflective of what people are getting for their cars on trade in and is the differential between selling value and buying cost really £9k?
I sense this is the tide turning.
Lower values now reflected in WBAC and other valuations, but not yet reflected in retail asking prices.
Someone I know 'in the trade' who I saw briefly over Christmas said that CAP values have been coming down month-on-month since Oct/Nov (i.e. a reversal of the previous trend).
I've been watching 2017/18 BMW G31 (5-Series Touring) prices. They are softening slightly (not as much as I'd like - yet....).
Cheers, Baggers.

I'd suggest the OP review the MOT History.
Aye, it's not exactly one to eat your dinner off.
I wonder what the story with the last 5 years was?

Is it a cheap car?

I've sold one car to Evans Halshaw.
Their model is dead simple: WBAC price, without their fees. They literally use the WBAC site to get the figure.
I managed to haggle them not charging a 'same day' (i.e. instant faster-payment) bank transfer.
I was surprised that the bandit (nice young Evans Halshaw man in an awful suit &.pointy shoes) only wanted to reverse my car out of its parking space, forwards c. ten meters, then reverse to park back up. "Don't you want to at least take it around the block or something?" "No, I just need to check that it will actually drive through the auction."
Overall I was very impressed. They did what it said on the tin.
Cheers, Baggers.

All of the interior will be going, the soft top, the wheels (showing signs of age but no scuffs that I can see), the front and rear bumpers also.
Excellent project!
You have a PM.

The 981 makes the 996 look so dainty in that picture.
Of course, 996 (and older) 911s are dainty by modern standards.
You have a lovely fleet @ATM.
Cheers, Baggers.

Well it's never worked since I bought the car, and they have a better than half price offer on this month only, so would've been rude not to ?
Bu99er! They (ATS) did my KN last month....

Summer set up is 265 rear 225front.
so both narrower for winter. ?
That's for 18s.
17s = 255 / 205
I think? I stand corrected if not.
Cheers, Baggers.

Not inadvertently. Conventional wisdom supports the notion that squarer and narrower are better for winter set up.
Staggered = stability / understeery.

These are narrow winter profiles ?
Narrower rears but wider fronts?
Tricky-Dicky liked a 'darty' drive from his square set-up?
Have you inadvertently gone squarer for the Winter?
Cheers, Baggers.
Options to think about when upgrading to a 981?

Excellent news. Congratulations Nobbie-Rob!
When you've worked it all out, please can I chase you in it? For old times sake....
Cheers, Baggers.
