AM Rapide £35,000 !

[philipbrown123]

Just had a quick look on AT at Rapide's for sale. 1 priced at just £35K. Several others at less than £40K.

Seems an amazing amount of car for the money. No pics as yet

Most Rapides are hardly driven - you see 5 year old cars with 10k miles. This example, with 86k miles will probably be a better car for stretching it's legs.
Edit: Mind you, this example with half the miles would be my choice.

I'd wait for an 8 speed Rapide S.

That is pretty astonishing value. It's not as if it's some cut-n-shut job. Still have AM warranty. Full AMSH, etc.

Weld the two rear doors such and charge 2x as much!

Wow. You could buy a Cygnet with that...

A DB9 for £35,000 would be 2005/6 model or a DB9 2010/11 ( same years as the first Rapides ) would be £55,000 to £60,000.

These Rapide's do seem incredible value and surely could not depreciate much more.
