Am slightly concerned by the fact that the seller states it doesn't need a service for another 13k miles. I guess it depends when the car was registered.

Am I missing the headlight washers as well?

Anyone know anything about the car or dealer?

TIA.

It needs a service on the 2nd anniversary of delivery or another 13,000 miles (20k total) whichever is the sooner. So not entirely untrue but perhaps a little disingenuous. Very nice looking car with good spec except would be a better steer without aircon. Haven't a clue whether that's a good price but it's a lot less than list on what looks almost brand new.

Is overdue a 24 month service. There's no warranty so perhaps cost for that. The wheels are all kerbed (from memory), they have been painted but the damage is visible below the paint. Also is missing the Porsche decals.

It has been around for a while (I viewed it perhaps 6 months ago), and was initially advertised at close to £40K. It has slowly dropped to where it is now. Also been mentioned on another thread some weeks ago.

For less than £5k more you could've had Rob Kellocks off here.
As new condition with warranty.

Only get headlight washers with the litronics.

If it is overdue a service then you may not be able to apply a warranty to it - also possibly why no OPC will touch it with a barge pole. It is misadvertised as having Xenons are there are no washer nipples which only come with Xenons.

No such thing as a cheap Porsche - unless you buy mine which is only worth £5 tops. biggrin
