If I was looking for a low mileage OPC GTS, I quite like this example although won’t appeal to all. What’s the view?

I quite like the Graphite Blue metallic, however, I’m not so keen on the Agate / Pebble grey interior.

The interior is not to my taste I'm afraid. But then, I'm boring - it has to be a black interior! Perhaps with contrast stitching.

Funny, I love the interior, not so sure about the external colour
Quite differing views in a poll of two!
I guess the only consideration is resale. Black, grey, blue, white the most popular colours of the cars for sale on Autotrader. It's a blue-grey
I think if you like it that is all that counts

Seeing Porsche Cardiff's description says it's an S Diesel, what makes you think it's a GTS?
I had an S Diesel in Sapphire Blue, with the Pebble/Agate interior and Pebble seat belts and never tired of it. A word of warning with Paint to Sample: there was a thread on here from someone who'd gone for Voodoo Blue and had the devil's own job in achieving a colour match after a minor scrape.

On the OPC Cardiff site it's listed as a GTS and it has GTS badging on the car...

Actually, the blurb in that ad is very muddled! It refers to both an SD and a GTS!? It also refers to Graphite Blue as both metallic and solid!? And it refers to a ‘white’ full leather interior!?
Personally, I like the Graphite Blue.
With regard to the interior colours, I think they’re maybe more ‘luxury’ rather than ‘sporty’ GTS style.
I notice that the ad does not include any of the usual interior photos of the seats, either front or rear. I wonder if either they’re not in great condition, or whether the OPC don’t think the pebble seats are a great look, especially for a GTS?

I actually love Graphite Blue.
I've been searching for the right Cayman in that colour for ages.
It's a bit Marmite like Crayon but I happen to really like it.

I have noticed over the years on Autotrader a lot of dealers seem to alter up a previous advert or Autotrader provides a draft template and some of the "necessary" changes get missed, leading to errors and confusion
