Porsche Valuations

Porsche Valuations values all Porsche cars, including all 911 models. This unique online service is run by John Glynn: a professional valuer and Porsche expert with over thirty years valuation experience, including ten years as a Valuations Editor with the famous Glass’s Guide and creator of the launch dataset for ‘We Buy Any Car’.

My Porsche history includes many years as a professional journalist, writing for every Porsche-specific magazine, including Porsche’s own Christophorus publication. I have written hundreds of Porsche articles and my book The Cult of Porsche was published in 2013. My Porsche blog, Ferdinand Magazine, is read by thousands of visitors annually. I have owned several air-cooled 911s and maintain a collection of three classic Porsches: a 1976 LHD 911 Carrera 3.0, a 1981 LHD 924 Turbo and a 1983 RHD 944 Lux.

After more than ten years working across every aspect of the retail and wholesale motor trade, I entered specialist valuation services in February 2000 and have since served thousands of clients including owners, investors, insurers, dealer groups and solictors as a valuations consultant and independent market expert. I am regularly instructed as a Court Expert Witness and a Single Joint Expert in divorce cases.

Classic Porsche Agreed Insurance Valuations

My highly detailed online Porsche valuations including agreed insurance valuations cost £50 per vehicle. Insurance valuations are accepted by all UK insurers as valid for two years, so divide the cost by two to compare with an annual fee.

You might find cheaper agreed insurance valuations elsewhere or through your insurance company, but remember that you get what you pay for!

Every valuation I create benefits from thirty years industry experience. Every valuation I supply is completed by me and in person. My valuations are not compiled automatically and the values are not average for the model. Every valuation is bespoke to your vehicle. The detailed valuations are five to eight pages long and include:

• An expert report on current market trends
• Model-specific history and points of note
• Details of the subject vehicle and its provenance
• A look at market activity and prices in context
• A bespoke valuation based on your car’s unique features and market appeal

Remember that my comprehensive individual classic car insurance valuations are valid for two years, so divide the price by two to compare with an annual fee. You do not need to be a car club member to use my online service. An in-house condition report form is not usually required when a signed valuation on letterhead is submitted.

Completed valuations are usually returned within three working days. All data is confidential: I do not keep or share your details and I do not do any additional marketing. It is just good, old-fashioned service.

Submit your Porsche valuation details, email some photos and pay with a card or via Paypal. I will complete your comprehensive valuation report within three working days. You can also use this service for HMRC NOVA or probate valuations.

Legal and Divorce Valuations

I am regularly instructed by legal clients for specialist valuations and valuations reports, including divorce, probate, litigation and HMRC valuations. My 2021 caseload has included several Expert Witness reports, a Trading Standards prosecution and Single Joint Expert divorce valuations of classic car, racing car and vintage motorcycle collections.

Single Joint Expert Divorce valuations and Court Expert services

John Glynn at Porsche Valuations is regularly instructed to provide valuation and market expertise on a variety of cases for legal professionals and insurance companies. I also work with Trading Standards to help prosecute rogue traders and car dealers.

Expert Witness reports and statements conform to CP35 Civil Procedures Rules as per Guidance to Experts, and can greatly assist the path to a settlement. All of my Single Joint Expert reports are to Family Procedure Rules, 2010 (Part 25) and the associated Practice Directions.

I also work on case review and assisting with cross examination notes.
