With the exception of the rare cases where the car up for sale literally needed nothing, I do not believe any car we have done a PPI on that ultimately went to sale closure ever went for the asking price, always less. Besides sorting out the really undesirable cars (and we have seen a few of them as well), the PPI results have nearly always been a negotiation leverage point for the buyers, which is one of the principal reasons many buyers require one.
