jason3.2s Posted June 29, 2021 Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 I still think its good value at £1350 for a 981 as you cant get many non suffix number plates for less than £1,000 unless it contains a Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the Z is a killer for how much they’re worth. Something I was more than happy to take full advantage of! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does really make a huge difference imho though - ageless plates make a Porsche look 'just right' - and in your case - for those that know, that is a great plate!

jason3.2s Posted June 29, 2021 Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) I like personalised plates and that does look good. Just surprised 981 PDK didnt go for more money, think it might in the future. I would pay £1350 for it now and I dont have a 981 lol Edited June 29, 2021 by jason3.2s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001pt Posted July 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 Bidding is over 15k now so that’s 45% of us that’s undervalued it so far, with 24hrs still to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have sold with them before and tbh I did not like their approach. They called me more than once on the final day trying to convince me to change it to no reserve and were quite aggressive in my opinion. The same has happened with a 996 C4S that I may bid on.

More that whatever the number they post that is the value to them. You wouldn't say that the car was overvalued if 80% of posters valued it lower than the hammer price. Likewise if only 1 person wins out of 100 they are in the minority in terms of value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question was not put forward as 'what is the value to you'. The question is 'what do you reckon this will sell for' So as 2001pt mentions, 45% guessed incorrectly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBen Posted July 2, 2021 Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 Few hours to go on the Boxster auction and currently at £16,500. I'm reckoning it will top out just under £20k as that's quite a psychological barrier for a 986. There's also a slightly scruffy Anniversary 986 on there finishing around the same time, currently £6,100. Reckon that might make £8k?

2001pt Posted July 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 (edited) Winning bid was £17,750 in the end (so £18,815 incl. the fees) Not as much as I, and a lot of us, was expecting but way more than I’d be willing to pay 😆 Edited July 2, 2021 by 2001pt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
