edc Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 I saw this the other day and thought it seemed cheap too but don't follow the 981 prices so closely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Daniel Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 Yes, very nice, no BOSE but sports exhaust to listen to instead. Doesn't seem to have the usual alcantara bits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnSyn Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 It appears, from the advert, that the mileage contributes to the cars lower than expected valuation. 16k excess miles and £5k under expected value. I've no idea as to how car sales are going or will go over the next few months. Lots of speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
che6mw Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 Stunning colour. The full leather in this instance I think is a shame - the standard alcantara is lovely and feels a bit more special. Don't think it has the additional GTS interior trim either (middle GTS dial is black). The red or white stitching and coloured centre dial I think really adds to the cabin. Has had aftermarket grills added. Suggests to me someone has thought to look after it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edc Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 The mileage is only 8k a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenman Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 I think the issue is that without the GTS interior packs it seems little more than a well specced S (very similar spec to mine in fact). The GTS interior packs are about the only options available to the GTS that you couldn’t get with the S (along with the different front bumper).  Also as said it’s a higher mileage than many so you would expect it a bit cheaper.

Interesting that Ed but the dealer selling the car has stated in the advert the mileage is 16k higher than they would expect. I must say I thought it was odd to include that in the advert at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldboy 63 Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 More interested in the orange one in the showroom window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will only be a handful of 981 GTS I'm sure for sale and if a few have very low miles then the mean average is probably low for the samples currently available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right about low mileage 981 GTSs, when I bought mine last January it was nearly 4 years old but had only done 11k miles! And a few others I looked at had similar low mileage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menoporsche Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 Boxsters generally are often special occasion cars, a 981 GTS even more so I’d have thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
