Only 7 cars on AT and 6 of those are Spiders.

10 on PH, but most are the same as AT with a few exceptions.

Only 5 on Motors but again, a few replicated elsewhere.

If you want a yellow spider, fill yer boots....!

2016 Coupe in Comp Red with 3k @£37,995 private sale. Smaller wheels and no leather dash but looks good value.

Looks lovely that. I had the smaller wheels on my Spider but had them painted in a gunmetal silver which suited the carbon exterior.

Out of interest there seems to be some confusion on whether the 0-60 is 4.5 or 4.1 on most advertised 4C cars?

For some reason US spec (despite being heavier) are 4.1s, EU/RoW are 4.5s

The US measure 0-60 that is why their time is lower. ROW use 0-62.

Everything in America is bigger , faster, better. Many Americans have told me that so it must be true biggrin

Actually the 4.5 figure is using launch control at 3.5K revs, however if you do the full launch at 6K Revs, the car performs a 4.1 0-60Mph.

Therefore 4.1 is the official figure but Alfa only use the half launch figure. Makes a change for a manufacturer to quote a lower 0-60!

WO16 NSU (if one of the batch) Comp Red Spider is currently touring France
I'm pretty sure there were 3 Comp Red with the standard exhaust and bigger 18-19 wheels in silver.

They also had one grey spider.

I've been watching the 17 plate (7k mile) coupe at Mangoletsi for the past week..

Phoned today to try and arrange a test drive (I've not driven one yet) and the Salesman told me the price had just been reduced to 38k as they'd had it a while with little interest.. Happy days I thought, he then told me they've just taken a deposit on it today! rolleyes Anyway, not to worry, really wanted full leather if possible although the rest of the spec was to my liking.

It will be interesting to see what happens to prices over the winter months, if these are anything like Lotuses then I might do better hanging on?
I've sent you a PM

I wonder if it's on SOR? If not what's the best guess as to what Saxton paid for it?

There's a 20k mile white coupe on a 66 plate that's recently come on too, that's up for £37378.

I see the 4C at Saxtons on sunday, paint work at the rear looked tatty along with the door sills, other than that looked pretty nice.

Apologies to those waiting on my market report. My wife broke her wrist and it's put a massive strain on our business.

I've been following numbers of sales etc and its amazing how quickly the cars are moving.

The market is moving rather rapidly at the moment and its hard to keep up.

As such first market report will come out on Friday. Thank you all for your patience.
Hi Joe

Did I miss this in another thread?

A couple coming up here:
http://www.hwm.co.uk/used-cars/search/?make%5B%5D=...

Both will be ex-FCA cars so should be high spec.
The coupe apparently sold before it had even arrived at the dealers! The spider looks nice though with a great spec and decent price:

Are you counting a particular body style and colour?

My count makes 19 and 9 on PH.

I must've missed a page.

Just searched 4C and only 5 came up - 4 Spiders and 1 coupe.

ETA - just looked again and there's 20 now...!

That is a nice spec, the leather dash makes all the difference, I took a leap of faith when I bought mine a couple of months ago. I bought a 2017 Anniversary spider and the extra carbon bits and dashboard really lift the car.

Just out of interest did you buy the pearl white one from Piccadilly Motors?
