Just Pre owned don't carry manufacturers warranty.

Even if the car is less than one year old? (In which case, surely the balance of the standard Porsche three year warranty would still apply?)

I would say that was a mistake in the advert, Porsche have know to do that once or twice.
Or, the car could be modified? Not sure if a main dealer would sell it then though?

Yeah, I think that all pre-owned Porsches are ‘approved’ if they’re sold through an OPC, so in answer to the OP, there is no difference in the two terms used.

Am pretty sure that OPCs won’t sell modified cars. Before they would buy mine from me, or accept it as a trade in, they explained that it would have to be put back to the way it left the factory (so reversing all the Litchfield mods).

At what point does a Porsche stop being covered by PORSCHE (full manufacture) warranty, even if you've kept up the warranty?
I know you can be covered for upto 15 years, but the "full" warranty stops at some point (so I believe)

I don’t know the answer to that, but it seems a shame that Porsche won’t offer a Porsche warranty forever, assuming the owner is willing to keep renewing and handing over the 💰💰💰

Toyota has a great system where the warranty is renewed every time it is serviced by a Toyota dealer

Same as Lexus. (Toyota owned). Mercedes and Volvo both renew breakdown cover if serviced at main dealer.

So at the end of those 3 years even if you extend, its not FULL Porsche manufacturing warranty?
