The Coys car looks very nice but description is a bit vague on details like the current mileage and where it was serviced etc.
As for the Singapore car you would think that if you wanted someone to part with £150k you would have put a bit more effort in the quality of the pics and the ad!

I was at Dick Lovett yesterday and took my car for a spin. Not a great day to do it but a pleasure anyway. Saw the CS they have in stock and it looks new! Apparently another super low mile on on the way ...
Btw I've not dealt wit DL before I bought my car a few months ago but to date they have been superb
Gratuitous pic of my car parked up in Cirencester where we stopped for a bite at lunch

Very nice but a bit pricey for LHD?I take it all these cars for sale are on SOR and dealers won't be writing out cheques for £200k plus as the market is too volatile? Noticed that early part of this year not much has sold and I see the same cars advertised for the same price, which makes me wonder the level of interest dealers are actually receiving and whether the owners actually want to sell or are just out to make a substantial margin and if they can't they are happy to take it back.
I'd assume they are sor, as you say people expecting to make a margin. Now that asking prices are up in the 300k + area it cuts out a big % of potential buyers, where as when they were 150k some years back there would have been a long list of buyers. I think as its been winter sales typically take time or most just wait until the sun is out, should see them shifting in a few more weeks.
Does anyone know if the Coys car sold and for how much?
That could give an indication of how the LHD CS market has moved in the UK
On exchange rate the pound is down approx 10% so the prices should reflect that and likely narrow te spread to RHD for the moment
I do really hope the prices stabilise as if these cars get too expensive it will be harder to use it and even park it in the streets or car parks ... Never mind servicing with all the parts going ballistic too!

The white CS looks great!
I think it's this one in the registry given mileage and the non std radio/satnav

Japanese car...not easy to track its Asian history: good luck reading/understand their local paperworkI think it's this one in the registry given mileage and the non std radio/satnav

I had a go at a silver Strad from Japan (now in the UK and advertised locally)...what a nightmare, and as it turned out: good thing I didn't buy: the paint measurements were all over the place

Often the cars come with 0/Partial History - Some accident repair / Others have had plenty of paint - Little items/trims missing from being shipped over.
EU cars are safer for obvious reasons as they're "accessible" but there ARE still some good JP cars available at sensible NON UK pricing, you just have to know where to look & have a good shipping contact in place to help facilitate the export out of there (The fun side of being there is babysitting it & seeing it being secured & loaded for the trip back!)

I bought the Ferrari Centre car by the way.
Congratulations! Epic cars. I went down to Goodwood at W/E in mine. 400+ miles round trip. Motorway, A,B,C roads and city driving. Loved every minute.By the way, it is interesting that both the Meridien and Lovett cars circa £220k have now sold too. I grabbed mine because I always wanted one, and thought this may be my last chance before they were even more out of my reach.
