Hope this isn't a re post but how about this near 50k mile RS2 for 80k
http://www.bramley.com/carsales/details/Audi/RS2-A...
Note sure if a re-post, but been there for sale a while nowhttp://www.bramley.com/carsales/details/Audi/RS2-A...
Leads me to the question - is anything much selling at the moment? Does that £80k RS2 mean others are actively trading for £50-60k?

But they're based in a wealthy area and no doubt have clients with deep pockets.
A bunch of clowns around these days, trying to sell of anything as investment car or future classic ect, these dealers are taking the piss, a huge gap exists in Ferrari 355 prices, some going for anything up to 150,000 and all way down to 60,000

The words Dove House can be accurately translated as avoid at all costs.Took these a few weeks ago, as we stayed in Midhurst during the FoS and walking back to the hotel from the pub one evening, spotted this;
The garage was shut at the time, and it isn't listed on their website, so I have no idea if that window sticker is correct - I suspect it isn't as everything else on their site doesn't seem that badly priced...but if it really is up at 57k, I don't know what's so special about this one to value it so high, as most others on Car and Classic appear to be between 10 and 20k?!

Maybe it's actually a great bargain at £570.00?

Could be that there were comparatively low numbers of the CE made for that edition? 11-20k worldwide depending on the year.
Crying out for this treatment!

It being £570 hadn't even entered my head... bit of a dangerous thought if it is! Could be that there were comparatively low numbers of the CE made for that edition? 11-20k worldwide depending on the year.

That green one is lovely - Daytons (in a respectable size and finish) are just
Presumably these ultra high priced dealers are a workable business model? Otherwise they would all go bust...
So that makes me wonder who are the lunatics paying these prices? Do they have a big customer base or are they just sitting around waiting to cash in from 1 or 2 crazies every year... I mean their margins must be enormous.

Go to some of the auctions and you might meet some of the "crazies" - you will see quite a few cars going for prices that some people on here would be amazed at. Some people are happy ( and have got the money ) to pay what you or I might consider a crazy price for something, especially if it's i) rare, ii) excellent condition or bothSo that makes me wonder who are the lunatics paying these prices?

Firstly this one is hilarious, it's an AMG GT granted but a special trim level does not make it worth that

Next we have a car which didn't sell at £350k so they raised it to £450k. Then £650k. Now it's £694,950 and guess what it hasn't sold!
