GLWTS!

A lot of money. But looks like a beautiful car. I’m sure there will be someone out there looking for such a low mileage well cared for example.
GLWTS.

I paid £18k for it recently. Ultimately its immaculate condition and history is worth that to someone. It was for me.

[Mr Tidy]

Yes, you just need to find the right buyer so GLWTS.

It might help to add some details of service history and any options it has though because people are bound to ask!

Did you purchase privately at £18,000? What's the reason for sale?

[Pondrew]

I paid £18k for it recently.

You have just got to hope there's another like you, then.

Sorry I don't normally comment on 'for sale' posts, but that IMO is absolutely ridiculous money in 2024.

“Absolutely ridiculous” is an interesting, yet unwarranted opinion. We’ll see how I go I suppose. The market for immaculate low mile, good history examples is pretty shocking and this being immaculate, fully loaded and a late plate is very attractive. The ones I looked at had all sorts of problems brewing with bodywork corrosion, nasty underneath or had enormous gaps in history. I paid strong money literally a month ago because it was an exceptional example.

Why am I selling so soon? Having had many 911s in the last five years, I’m pretty disappointed with the power delivery. But I’m not rushing to offload.

It is a lot of money but it’s not ridiculous. The market maybe flat at the moment and you could get a very nice 35is for the same money but cars like this are rare especially in low mileage top condition/spec. They will always attract a premium (very often substantial eg double) over other examples which have the miles and are good even great. One of my cars has 14000 miles for a 1996 car and is valued at tens of thousands more than ones with even 60000 on the clock. And there maybe a buyer somewhere who wants the looks of a Z4MC but not the costs…… Having said that perhaps the 3.0si won’t attract that sort of customer as the current owner has found out as it’s not as mad as it could be. It’s why I bought an M. But GLWTS

It is ashame you didn't get on with it, bit surprising as you have had that engine twice before.

And yes, a 911 is a very, very different car but in a significant higher price bracket.

I bought it as a fun daily alongside my Range Rover Sport and 993. I guess I just romantically remember it as a more speedy drive as I’ve had roadsters before. Maybe the top down sound made it more of an event before. I’ve driven an M and I don’t think there’s much of a difference unless you gun it everywhere and to match the same level of quality, it was in the £30k bracket which is solid 997.2 territory which is a familiar place to me.

[pvr]

Agreed on the Coupe thing of course as the only reason I have my 3.0si next to my other cars is because it is a convertible.

It is a good colour combo you have there so just need to find the person who wants a Coupe.

[coldel]

If it helps OP as a benchmark, I sold my very very late 09 plate (was something like in the last 100 made) E86 with everything on it fully loaded with MPS4 brand new tyres etc. I sold it with I think it had 65k miles on it for £12k, got a buyer within a few weeks. I put it up for sale exactly around this time last year.

[john-e89]

There’ll be someone out there that wants a low mile minter, these si’s are a great car, better obvs as a roady but….

Maybe try Carsandclassics to sell as well, might pick up a fastidious buyer wanting something of this calibre as a weekend long term keeper.

Better ad needed imho with more details and pics but looks a cracker. Best of luck.
