cambsnw8 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 what's lemon about it? Post a link to the car so we know which to avoid. Did the dealer own it or was it SOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit_287 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 I drove from Bristol to London to look at a 981S on Wednesday, it wasn’t in very good condition, certainly not as described. I’ve located another 150 miles away from me and made a provisional offer but we’re not quite there on the money. I’m going to leave my offer with them. I know how frustrating it is finding the right car, I did a deal on one 18months ago, when I drove half way across the country to see it, it was a right dog. Best of luck with the search.

zagamuffin Posted June 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Can’t believe it’s so hard to give away over well over 30,000 ffs , have really started to looks at other brands now as they all have depreciated over 50% of their original price now and the curve is on a lot less steep curve so the time to buy them....some boxster prices are ridiculous.ive seen a 2013 for just over 40k , mental and it doesn’t matter how many extras it has they were @ 47k new and it’s 6 years old.....

Pinewood Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Boxster prices hold up surprisingly well. They give 8/10 of a 911 experience for half the price. People have cottoned onto how good they are . We the forumites already knew 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try buying a 2014 - 2018 GT3 and then you can moan 😂 at least 981 prices have ‘decreased’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
