Hi Ghost83

I watched with some amusement at your criticisms and comments on my pricing. It was however nice to know someone was taking such a keen interest.

I did need to wait quite a while for the right buyer to come along, and wasn't willing to let it go for less than what I felt it was worth.

The car sold this morning, and I wish the new owner the best, and as it is no longer a car I am selling, I can say with some honesty, that the car in that spec is as rare as hen's teeth. It is anything but a bog standard Gallardo - it is a manual, coupe, right year, right colour, right wheels.

Next in line is the Arancio LP550-2 on autotrader. What do you think of pricing on that? I think it is worth every penny.

All the best

Well done with the sale if it was around the 119k my question is though why wouldn’t it sell around the mid 80s it was advertised for then the mid 90s

Imo someone’s had their trousers down! So well done to you and well not very good for somebody who’s shelled out a lot more than it was originally advertised for

Fair enough, but it seemed you had no clue what that was...

Assuming the buyer is over 21 and nobody was holding a gun to his head i don't know what the fuss is about, As long as he's happy with it ,that's the main thing, good luck to him.

Agreed with rat rod.

There is some right curtain twitching on this thread!

I still don’t understand why someone would pay over 100k for it when it was advertised in the 80s only a few months ago

My goodness, find yourself a new hobby or just buy a damn car instead of just online tyre kicking.
