Exactly Rob.
What is about is big money in the Porsche world and not much stock in anything i can run to price wise.
Tracy has had a couple of serious offers for her GTS it is a good example with almost 17k of options low mileage.
Seems a shortage of afordable cars around at present.
Stick with yours mate its lovely, as you say what would you get we would be looking at 30k plus for anything worth changing for not sure i wanna do that now retired gotta watch the pennies .
Keep up the good work on the Spyder front buddy.
Cheers

Nice mid spec SRS in the 2026 summer colour 276 miles 1 owner £139,900
3 owner SRS coming to auction and currently owned by the chairman of Iconic Auctions Nick Whale so no sellers commission here
www.pistonheads.com
This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Sale at the BRDC Classic 2026 - Collectors' Cars on Saturday the 25th of July, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.
This particular 718 RS Spyder is a UK-supplied (C16 specification) example first registered in April 2024 with a list price approaching £160,000, immediately changing hands (presumably for a premium) to the second owner. The car was then barely used, covering some 800 miles, before being acquired by Iconic Auctioneers owner and Chairman, Nick Whale. The appeal of the car was both the colour combination and the extremely high specification combined with its outstanding condition and low mileage.
It presents superbly in factory GT Silver with red and black leather upholstery. Factory options cost over £35,000 and are too many to list here but include forged magnesium wheels, the Weissach Package, Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes, front axle lift, total front-end PPF, leather interior with extensive items covered in leather and race tex, LED headlights with Dynamic Light System Plus, front bonnet, mirrors and rear wing in carbon finish, BOSE surround sound, park assist with reversing camera, wheels in satin white gold, carbon illuminated door sills, and many more individual items. A full list will be available at the documents office at the sale.
Today the car has covered just 1,588 miles and in March 2026 was treated to a two-year service by Porsche Centre Solihull.
This is an extremely rare opportunity to acquire a highly collectable and totally original car with known history and provenance, no stories, and very much the right specification. A genuine reason for sale and unique opportunity.

MY tag line "Life is too short to buy dull cars."
After all these years I heard this on film yesterday and did a giggle, but then they said where it was from . (film was crime 101 Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry,)

- The quote appears on a wall in the auto section of the Elvis Museum at Graceland, according to a detailed account from the Billboard Mastery podcast.
- It is widely repeated online as “Life is too short to drive boring cars,” but the museum version — and the one attributed directly to Elvis — is “own a boring car.”
I use it as people tell me to run a daily sh1tter for work and I always say why would I do i that when I can drive a Porsche every day .
Still on the hunt for a nice PDK Spyder BTW. seems no ones selling up in this great summer of 26.
This is true Mr Demon no ones changing or moving up to other models.
Not only Spyders at the right price i have been looking for a Cayman R in pdk for the last 4 months for an everyday .
Only a couple are out there at present with mega low mileage and outragous price tags, starting putting mileage on them they will drop like a stone.
But your right never seen such a shortage of decent fairly priced cars as 2026.
Once summers comes to an end iam sure both models will emerge again.
Good hunting.

I am not sure about that I think people have smelt the coffee and bought these cars as keepers of the last of the analogue Porsche's before Big Brother took over and dulled the experience
