Is this priced right

[Smatty]

Porsche 997 C4S convertible, sat nav, sports exhaust, red brake calipers in black on 08 plate for £43999?

Via an Aston Martin dealership here near Newcastle (can't find pics)

Trying to ascertain where I should try and negotiate too as it won't come with a Porsche warranty

Mileage?

I would look to buy from opc at that kind of age for piece of mind.

[Smatty]

Sorry mileage is 31k

Is it a gen 2? Theres probably a good £10k difference in values.

Didn't Gen 2 come out in 2009?

[Porkupine]

I am guessing this one:

So Gen 1

I think it was 2008 MY09. You can get a Gen 2 in the £40's with the much improved engine, it would be a no brainer for me.

That's the one. So is it, or could someone please explain the 'other' engine that is mentioned

[Smatty]

My apologies fat fingers. So is it priced right?

I cant claim to be an expert on pricing but that doesnt look too bad if the history checks out (should just have had a second major service). Id be tempted to stretch the budget and get a gen II if you can. Henry's had a C2S for a while (911 Virgin) and if you speak nicely to him you may find him flexible on price. End of summer isnt a great time to be selling convertibles. Equally you should expect a bit of an "end of summer" deal on the other one...
