Suggestion
Have a look at that because if you present your car well, photo every bill and receipt, I'm sure you can sell it minus the in-person haggling, tyre-kickers and test drive viewings.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

How much is it worth ?
So after 5 years off epic ownership of the 911
She has to go up for sale
She has had thousands updating its mechanics also cosmetics with refurbished wheels for Excel power polished ocean blue metallic and refurbished leather interior
She is a low spec model only central locking and heated rear screen
Buttons to play with. She is a Tip with the hated sun roof which I â¤ï¸
101,000 miles full service history file full of 21 years of bills
So how much should I put her on the market for ? Don't need a quick sale
The cars listed on A/T currently of similar miles & Tiptronic range currently from about £12,500 - £16,000 (both private & trade), so I'd suggest you might be best to try somewhere in the middle of that range.
The market appears to be cooling slightly as normal for the time of year so it might be a case of listing it with the best pictures/full description (including service history) & seeing what interest comes along?
Good luck with the sale.
Alternative opinion: I've been spectating on online auction sites like Collecting Cars and usually they go close to the expected market value of the car. Sometimes market interest is not so high but that usually that is when a car has a dodgy past and a few advisories that have not been fixed. Setting a sensible reserve can fix that risk. Have a look at that because if you present your car well, photo every bill and receipt, I'm sure you can sell it minus the in-person haggling, tyre-kickers and test drive viewings.
Re Collecting Cars, I tried to sell my C2 aero kit a month or so ago.
The bidding ended just under the reserve and I had an offer from the bidder via collecting cars but I couldn't bring myself to accept and let them have their commission on the basis their advertising of the car had been so poor (madness I know).
Despite numerous requests and promises, they didn't list it on facebook (we know best, we sell x million cars a year) or anywhere sensible and did a single instagram post which they auto-deleted after 24hrs. I imagine this is happening for a lot of cars they list.
There was the usual pestering to remove the reserve as well. It seems their marketing now purely relies on potential bidders constantly looking at their website unless you have something with GT3 or RS on the end of the badge!
If anyone is interested feel free to pm me as I still have it. I was not in a desperate rush to sell, just could do with the garage space.

That looks like a really good, honest car. I saw it come up on CC's and thought it was very interesting. I'd love it, but I definitely can't buy another one. 😂
Good luck with the sale. ðŸ‘
Re: How much is it worth ?
Well that was the plan,,,,
We had a dry day here just before Xmas so decided to take her cover off and go for a pre Xmas drive, drove the usual fast roads near me after about an hour I was back on the drive ready to pack her away till next year and better weather when I realised I was not ready to sell her. It makes no sense to keep her she will probably deteriorate while we are away and go down in value but
This 996 has gotten under my skin like no other car I have ever owned she is nothing special just a TIP over 100k miles even got the dreaded sunroof
( which I love ) so I am going to keep her next problem is get wife on board 😟
