Just wondering how many supercars that are sold via auction make the reserve price,in the past i have watched three Lambo's and none made reserve.

No not thinking of buying just yet,but the cars ive been intrested in seem to have a high guide/reserve price and they never seem to sell.
I think ive found what i am looking for,just a matter of price and how genuine the car turns out to be!( orange Lambo Diablo GT)

probably becuase auctions are not the bargain centres they once were,now most of the stock put through is owned by dealers and they want t o earn on it,you're only likely to get a deal if its a repo.I used to buy all my cars at acution ,now its nigh on impossible ...you can actually end up paying more than if you bought from a dealer

Very true - a friend of mine in 2004 bought a 2002 BMW 745 (then current shape) with 30k miles, fully loaded for £28k (price new was around £60-65k). Try doing that today....

Very easy you can almost get those deals at BMW main dealers, unless I am missing the point, bought my 730d m sport for £26k from a main dealer with 31k on the clock, 2 years old and with 2 years warranty, was £63k new.

7's have always depreciated like stones fortunately ferraris / lambos are not as bad
