Daboy3000 Posted September 15, 2021 Report Share Posted September 15, 2021 It's ok, once I put in that it has no MOT or history they offered me £150. That's more like it. 😆 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andygo Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Trouble is, it's not the price you get for your car, it's the price to swap which muddies the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alank Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 Just been offered 32k from Portsmouth opc for my 2014 (63) S, 23k miles, most options inc Sport Techno 20" wheels, and £38150 from wbac, what a difference. I know they have to put a warranty on it, but 5K difference?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark-yorkshire Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Just checked the 69 plate Boxster T that I sold. On 22nd October it was £50,600 with WBAC - today it’s £44,180 !!. When I sold in August it was £53,180 with WBAC and I sold for just under £54,000 with Wizzle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may yet regret that decision 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 I sold the Volvo last month using Wizzle, WBAC and Wizzle are now 3-4k less. Dealer who ended up buying it has also knocked 2k off their ask. S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattman42 Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 how much of this is just seasonal demand though? Nov/Dec always slow months for car sales and no new regs to bolster numbers so wouldn't be surprised if they are looking to reduce stock holdings and prices. £10k drop is a heavy lump though, I wonder if the OPC sale price would show the same level of reduction - i guess not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zagamuffin Posted November 8, 2021 Report Share Posted November 8, 2021 I took a chance/forced to and sold my 981S and looking to rebut a GTS 981 to leave std or a 2.5GTS to tune the shyatee out of when the market drops…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuno1 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Interesting thread for a potential buyer (me). This isn’t surprising and seems to be across the board. I am sure some of it is seasonal but lots of talk about WBAC etc being fully stocked, people reaching the point they won’t pay values being asked etc Autotrader stock levels are up by 20k cars compared to this time 7 weeks ago as well.

GTSMarky Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Surely convertibles like ours will take a hit this time of year. However does the market react by holding prices as the potential demand increases due to my first sentence? maybe, maybe not. Given how good and usable the boxster is with its heated seats, excellent hood seals and cabin heating, winter is easily kept out once inside the car so to me there’s not a bad time of year for the boxster so strike while you can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuno1 Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 As a wanted post draws ever closer I spent some time looking at autotrader at 2013/2014 981 s models under 50k miles and they were consistently advertised by dealers 6-8k more than WBAC starting valuations. This certainly wasn’t the case 2 months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is in my experience most dealers look at WBAC as a starting point. Glad I sold in August via Wizzle as the dealer gave me £700 more than WBAC.
