308 on there back up for sale, was a no sale in August. They've relisted with some slightly better images...
Could have updated the summary text reading "this Ferrari is ready to delight during the warm summer months"! Unless they're aiming for a Spring 2021 sale...

“ though this tyre has since been replaced with an Avon Turbospeed item. The other wheels are shod in the original type Michelin TRX tyres, which are in good condition. ”

I wouldn’t even have a blend of tyres on a Peugeot- let alone a Ferrari. Whilst it’s easy to rectify says more about the current owner.

Well as you can see the moderators removed something I said, so you can imagine who or what is the seller.
Only reached 34k, so the market spoke, again!

All these haircuts of the thread (even if done unilaterally by PH) are doing nothing for CC's position; if they are reading the thread, why aren't they contributing?

The one’s making more will probably be Touring’s that haven’t been modified to Lightweight spec. That’s this cars problem, people want original cars. That and the fact it’s been for sale for a long time...don’t think chasing the price down and then listing it as a last attempt on an auction site is the way to sell a car like an RS.

This is interesting. This car was auctioned in maybe May or June on Collection Cars and got to something like £135k...didn’t make reserve and has been for sale on PH via a private advert over the summer..I think it got to £113k.

Two things come to mind...a) how not to sell a car and b) that’s a big change in the market.

Noticing quite a few no sales or low selling prices generally. Market has very much changed from that of the earlier in the spring/summer when people were bored and wanted to spend some dosh.

Sports cars and the British winter do not really go hand in hand. I'm sure things will pick up again in spring assuming the world hasn't imploded by then.

Going by my own current view of the world I find this not entirely surprising, while I was buying cars in the first half of the year, I am now very much thinking about selling (probably in spring) to release some cash and reduce ongoing expenses given what looks like substantially lower income than expected

Not a bad price. Been for sale at the below dealer for a while. Remember it from a couple of years ago. And to think what I let mine go for frown

Sure i saw this Aston at a Goodwood track day i was attending this summer ,can't be many this colour, looked and sounded amazing ,

Don't know how it got away with the noise test, must have had to backed off in the wright places like the rest of us.

I see once again this lovely Aston has not sold, its a very special car but it seems no one thinks its worth what the owner does.

WBAC gives a price of £73k for the Rolls Royce Wraith..its going to cost someone £100k and it’s definitely not in a resale colour scheme either inside or outside. I am definitely seeing CC as a selling platform but not a buying one
