Hi guys, I believe this car has been for sale for a very very long time, I.e. May be 6 months. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea colour.

I want to go and see it in the flesh, the interior in the photo looks amazing. And the colour is starting to grow on me too. But is there any other reason why this car h taken that long to sell? Or if there is actually anything wrong with it, Also I need to think about the resale too, which may lead me to the same problem. Decisions decisions.

The price at the moment is all over the place, i know every one wants a bargain but it seems that some cars have been stuck for a long time and some are still asking way too much I think.

I personally am looking for an LP 560 light colour spyder up to 25k miles and don't want to spend more than 100k. But will considering settling with something that may seem a decent deal.

Unpredictable market right now I think.

Hi, I went to look at that car a 430 and a 599 that he has.
Some of his cars sit around for a long while because they are over priced, however if you dare to suggest that you get some attitude, so if you were looking for a "deal" you may not get the response your after.

I loved the car you are refering to outside colour looks fabulous but the interior just looks like a t@rts handbag, for me I would have to change to black and am also not a fan of the quilted interior on them.
I didnt look into the owners or service history on the car but from the outside it seemed a nice car, this was probably Oct 14.

Your post is a little confusing as you say you really want an LP for sub 100k, the cheapest LP I could find was 90k in blue with high miles back in November / December time, think you will be pushed to find one, Lambo 7 oaks have a white LP you may get a deal on, as per one of my previous posts the 2 private orange cars non LP currently for sale look nice, the spyder a bit overpriced but if you can do a deal could be worth a look.

with vvs you can generally tell the age of the stock by the condition of the hedge in the background - in this case, it's a very summery hedge biggrin

Maybe he has splashed out on some evergreen shrubbery to fool us.
He has got some stock though will give him that.
That car would look lovely on a 100 degree day in the south of france, not sure it works here.

Thanks guys.
Good point made. I never took notice of background lol.

I started off looking at 06 spyder . Then for the price not a lot more I see some lp 560 spyder so I thought might be more value for Money.

For what its worth your going down the exact same thinking as I did a couple of months ago,(see some of my recent threads) decent low mile non LP cars are not far away from LP prices albeit not very nice colours or miles, hence how I ended up with mine as it looks value compared to others.

My pal has a Celeste phoebe spider and photos do not do it justice.

Here is a pic of it in the background to my car, it looks so much paler in pics compared to real life and I really think its a great colour.

the quilted seats hold up better than the non-quilted..... the leather is classic soft Italian so stretches..... look in the classifieds, very few interior pics show the seat base as the leather often looks bad, this is worse with heated seats..... so the quilting actually helps this....

personally, I'd need to see the blue plastics in the flesh.... the white quilt looks ace imo, and two tone is better than single tone interior.
