I Bought A Cheap Porsche Cayman 981 From BCA Car Auction UK
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
I've wanted to try one of the Cayman 981s for a while, they seem like such good value! I was not disappointed but was the auction the right place to buy one?!

I really appreciate the time and expense it takes to transport the cars to Mexico for these road tests.
Personally, for about the same money, I would go for a 5.0 supercharged F Type. Now they do make a heavenly sound!!

But are not anywhere near the sports car the Cayman is. Have driven both and own a Boxster myself. F type is more tourer - and a great car - but not a patch on the mid engine fun the Cayman/Boxster are. But I agree on the sound. That 5.0 is beautiful to listen to over your shoulder when driving it.

But will depreciate faster than the Porsche and cost twice as much to own.
Loving your channel, Joe - you appear to be living the dream! I must say, that whenever I watch an episode i can't help but think that Macauley is a real asset to your business as he just seems to get on with it - every small business needs a Macauley 👍
Buy it ,Sell it , make a profit , and move on to the next one. Business is Business
It was barely 6 months ago you were telling us that £15k+ cars were not selling and that your £5k ones were the way to go.....

You show the way to get the information on a car before you buy..making it the smart way. Good buy..very nice car..that won't sit around for long. Great video on how to do it right.
Absolutely stunning looking and sounding car Joe. Your stock is superb at the moment.
WOW what a SUPERB car you are so lucky to be able to drive all these nice cars
Lovely motor. Great to see from the start, from bidding to McKorley filming pickup etc through to test drive. Free pops bangs and whistles!
Who needs top gear when we got Joe!! Loving the Porsche, absolutely spanking
Nice one Joe - more content like this please - love the auction process. Sure it will sell fast.
Nice car Joe, great to see you keep moving up!
It's a great usable power the 911 is great on a track where you can use all the power but a bit overkill for the roads IMHO. Lovely motor. I've also got 10 tickets for the RS5 which I hope helps young Jack out bless him.
Awesome car. 2.7 is so underrated. Everyone goes on about the great PSE sound and this size engine lets you get the most out of it without risking licence. Try the manual option on your PDK….. it’s quite satisfying changing via stick. It’s fast enough already 😮.
Always wanted a Porscher but i cannot afford a Porscher i'm so glad you got to experiance one though especially the cayman, personally if i was in your situation i wouldn't sell it and enjoy it instead hope you have a blessed day and keep selling providing people with transport :)
Porsche's sense of humour in telling the unknown punter that this is a Pretty Damn Kwick car!
Lovely selection of cars your getting in Joe👍🏻
Beauty beast Joe👌 Very nice purchase good luck with the sale. Regards
You should probably keep this one - don’t think I’ve seen this hyped over a car before - good car - great video!

It's interesting to see you going for the more exotic, higher-end stock, while High Peak appears to be going the opposite way.
Magic. Nice motor, Joe. Cheers.

Excellent podcast as usual Joe and gang hope the Tinkers down the playing field are behaving
Hi Joe, who do you use for your windscreen repairs? I'm in W-S-M and need one re-fitted to a mk2TTs As it has become unbonded to the car.
This is what I was waiting for 👍🏻 Next stop 718 GT4 perhaps/maybe. This one though is a decent bit of car for the money. Nice
Keep it Joe its ur type of car , u work so hard u deserve it mate
Nice, ive has 3 boxsters.... sound and handle amazing ❤
Were you in Sport mode, with the PSE switched on? It’s the only way to drive these things! :)
(I support an indi dealer) They are nice 981's. PDK service is due at 12 year mark, PSE (sports exhaust) can fail, check they open and close, engine mounts fail if its a Sports Chrono.....Great cars though. Important point its a convertible chassis in a coupe body so super stiff feel!
This seems to have the Porsche sports exhaust fitted (PSE) which isn’t listed on the options. Not a cheap option and they do sound amazing. Standard car has the one bigger central pipe and no exhaust button on interior console.

You talk about Porsche Options .. my dad canceled an order for my mums Porsche 924 ( in 1980 ) because they wanted to charge £60 for a passenger side mirror…. He brought her a Lancia Beta Coupe ( in beige !!) instead .. the rear axle rusted into the boot while it was still quite young ( we did live by the sea which brings rust )

18,05 You can't park there mate 😀 I don't really understand why someone would put a Porsche in an auction, my first thoughts are that it failed the Porsche approved test and needed loads of dosh spending on it.
Time to update the board… you are gaining 10k subs in a shorter time frame now… 100k by 20th Nov 2024
Has the box been serviced, it’s recommended the PDK needs it around 48k…

270 HP … It’s no wonder everyone is buying electric! For £21K you can get a model 3 performance that does 0-60 in 3.9 seconds … oh and you can fit your whole family in it and drive to Italy for £55.
At that age and with 4 owners then being sold at auction... Alarm bells ringing loudly...

Wouldn’t it be better not to bid so often during the auction….it kinda bids up the price, better to jump in when ‘going once…..’ or similarly as late as possible?

Combe is such a boring track though for an out and out sports car like the Cayman. It favours stuff with big power particularly at Quarry and Camp. Something a bit more technical would be ideal for it. Goodwood is a great little circuit for the Cayman and surprisingly undulating as flat as it appears in videos.

When I worked for BCA I must of without exaggeration driven at least 500 Porsches in all different guises, so I wouldn’t worry to much that it’s an Auction purchase. What I’m trying to say is, they seem to go trough the auctions quite a lot. I don’t know if that’s telling you something about resale or not, but i used to only like driving the manual sports cars that they produce. The best Porsche ‘s for me are the Panamera, Macan, you know all the bigger types as opposed to the sports cars they sell. They’re highly overrated. An S3 or S4 would embarrass a 911 or Caymen, Boxter. Marmite cars really
