I agree, most of their stock will be SOR anyway, so it’s up to the owner what price he sells it for.

It's hard to believe they would sell it for less than the trade price unless they are in the business of giving money away

Sounds like BS to me

£160k for a 296GTB sounds too good too be true. And thats before the dealer takes his cut if its on SOR.

Same here doesn't pass the sniff test. Unless of course it was actually £160k + vat (£192k) which is being a bit cheeky with the numbers

Car was not SOR it was an ex demo!

No it was not plus VAT.

If you smell BS thats entirely your outlook....Don't shoot the messenger

They simply wouldn't sell it for that! If true, that makes the trade price around 135/140k! No chance...

I'll have two please.

More believable if it was SOR, who knows one persons financial situation, but no way this a demo at that price. No chance DP is killing his own market and Ferrari wouldn’t allow it, it would be a horrible domino effect.. to all used 296 and SF90, and would really put people off completing on their incoming cars and just lose their deposit.Cheaper for them not to advertise it and park it out back.. HR Owen certainly don’t need to raise160k rapidly, they can get that across all other brands without killing their Golden Goose Dealership

[Purso]

Dealers are doing desperate things in this market, has anyone actually been offered a cash price from a dealer for the 296 or is it only sor? Px is different as they can massage the numbers but have you rang main dealer and asked what will you give me for this car. That will give you a lot of insight to the likelihood of a sale at 160 or not.

Someone said the price WBAC was more, so that’s what HR Owen would have done rather then kill their market and have it published over a public forum.. sniff test fail

but they'd know it was a possibility and not want to risk it

Can only but ask… dare someone to call up a dealer and see. I just can’t face more emails after my recenct hunt for a car.

Why would they admit it? There must have been some crazy reason behind it that I dont think we'll ever know. My mates proper pissed off with me though for posting it here I'm sure he'll come round though lol

He's pissed off as what he told you is BS, I bet he told the Mrs that he bought it for "a steal at 160k" too

As I said above I have seen whatsapp messages of his conversation with the sales team there so no its not bullst. What is interesting to see though is that none of them are selling at around the £200-225k mark and the cars are piling up in the dealer network. Theres some been on sale for ages!

[Familymad]

Oh I believe it, I didn’t mean ring that dealer, just a few others and see what’s on offer.
