Morning guys,

I wanted to ask if anyone here knew the best place to sell a 575 F1. Ive got another car coming this week and would like to let mine go sooner rather than later. When I advertised it privately last year the advert just attracted sales calls and a few timewasters. Im happy to sell it a little cheaper than a private sale and its completely ready to go, serviced and with a new clutch. Most buyers are only doing SOR and I have had 2 trade bids so far, one of which is close to what im looking for, however before I commit ( and its the wrond end of the country for me) I wanted to see of anyone here was aware of people buying stock now rather than SOR.

by the way - i dont think this constitutes an ad as im not detaling the car and price, but if anyones interested in the details of a (potentially)cheap good car for a quick sale then feel free to PM me.

Thanks

Owen

I would call Mike Wheeler of Rardley Motors near Hindehead. bought a couple of Ferraris from him. Guy is very straight fair and been only selling Ferraris for 25 years. Tough business man but would probably offer some alternatives to you. Main thing is he has an impecable reputation for only selling decent stock. He will tell you straight if is a car he can move etc and has more contacts than anyone i have dealt with in the Ferrari world!

thanks for al the replies so far. Im going to miss it. I dont think an audi estate ( even if it is an S4) is going to cut it, but I cant get the wife and baby in the 575!

I'll be back! ( hopefully in a 599)

Thanks for all the tips chaps, the car was picked up this morning by James from DK Engineering and I have to praise him for the manner in which I was dealt with. A price was agreed subject to viewing and he arrived in Bistol this morning from Bucks and drove the car away after sending cleared funds through. A very straightforward process and it encourages me to go back to him in a while for my 599 ( hopefully!)
