In before 675 fanboys tell us how crap the spec of this one is

Needs some paintwork "There are various stone chips on the car’s front end, and the mesh front grilles are showing signs of corrosion where the original black paintwork has come away. Elsewhere, there is the occasional chip on the rear spoiler and inside the wheel arches" probably around £5k, its obviously missing PPF so another £5k

As mentioned elsewhere the brakes need renewing, £12k, accumulators will need replacing £3k. And its out of warranty, £5k.

Factor in the immediate work to bring it up to 'trade' standard and that's £177k + £30k = £207k. And that's without £20k margin so its clear to see why there didn't appear to be any of the usual trade bids. Still a great buy for whoever got it. You don't need to do the paint and could just enjoy it as it is.

And yes the spec is average, no carbon bonnet, wings, spoiler which would add £20k and its not a CS or CS Pro.

So a 'fair' price for a car of average spec, out of warranty, needing paint and some mechanical work.

I don't think CC is a fair representation of market values, as there are a lot of people who won't use it to buy a car. I would imagine that 675 would be a good bit dearer at a dealer.

I wonder if we'll find out how much dearer in a few days?

I'm afraid so. I've only had a it a couple of months and have just been given a date next month for my kidney transplant, which I wasn't expecting to happen until the end of the year. So the car has to go.

Can you sell it to the guy you’re buying the kidney from? he’ll have the cash

sorry, thought it funny as many would sell a kidney for a car like that..

My amazing wife is donating so I'm afraid the car has to go to fund future handbag and shoe requirements

Nice one, so I guess the second car on the weekly listing I've just posted.
Guess it's like new inside and out at that mileage? Enjoy

Thats the one! Yes it's lovely but I have to say it's the colour that sold it for me. As soon as I saw it I knew.
