Yellow Ferrari 575M - Anybody know the car?

Currently for sale by Lancaster Ferrari , Colchester. This vehicle seems to have "done the rounds" and been in and out of the auctions several times this year . It's coming up for auction at Enfield on Tuesday .

So I was curious as to know if there was a specific reason/s that the vehicle hasnt sold previously at auction or in the retail market .

Any history on it ?

That one was in the main foyer at BCA Blackbushe in January.

Yes it was owned by darren clarke a few searches have revealed , i didnt notice it in the foyer , so i wonder why it hasnt been sold yet ... must be something dodgy about it.

Could it not be as simple as there's not many folk want a bright yellow 575 let alone want to pay more than sixty grand for it

If i had a 'spare' £68k that would be now be sitting on my drive!!!

Bright yellow it might be however its got a 5.7 litre V12 sitting in the front so what more would you want?

The car was being offered around £57k for a trade sale last week from a main dealer.

Must have done. Did it go through and not sell, perhaps?

[johnnyreggae]

Didn't OP say 29th originally ?

Originally said Tuesday (22nd, I assume) but the listing showed it as Friday 26th. Now changed to 29th.

i think that yellow is a definate no no colour.
i want even call it a marmite colour .
imo for this to sell it needs to be £45k..
always a few for sale,and not really fast sellers..

What IS selling fast at the moment? Half the threads seem to be complaining of a slow market...
