This would go nicely on The Touareg, but the £600 buyer's premium is rather salty when it probably cost less than that all-in from DVLA.

I traded mine for £28k in March, what they booking at now ?
Mine was a 67 plate but needed tyres and a lot of prep, I hadn't washed it properly for over a year.

That says it's offered by the trade - is Collecting Cars aimed at trade sellers?

With these sorts of cars, CAP doesn't matter except for when garages use it as proof to get part exchanges at low prices.
2016+ M4 regularly sell £3k of CAP Clean for instance. Work retail backwards

I felt there was almost nothing to distinguish between an M2 and a M2 Comp. Great cars.

In anticipation of this I recorded the lowest advertised prices of a bunch of cars on Pistonheads on the 3rd April. Here they are
981 GT4: £59,995
991 GT3: £84,995
Guila Quadrafolio: £34,950
Vantage V12: £57,850
F10 M5: £19,495
SLS AMG Coupe: £129,950
Ferrari F12: £149,000
BMW M2 (non CP): £27,950
BMW M4 (non CP): £22,950
So a good reference point for checking back for anyone that’s interested

Quick looky on eBay for non recorded cars:
BMW M2 £24,995
BMW M4 £19,995
BMW F10 M5 £16,500
There's not a lot for sale though so difficult to gauge.

I'm still waiting for my 360 to come along. There's been two advertised at £40k recently, one a previous insurance write off with no detail of what happened, the other a very dubious import with no history. And neither of them silver.
I'll keep waiting.

That’s roughly 15% drop across the board so far then. Probably lots more cars to come to market too, this could get interesting.

I'd have thought cars on pistonheads were generally 15% more expensive than on 'normal' sites to start with...
