650S Spider, value after crash?

This video shows the car in question in a crash in Poland 2015.

The car has been advertisement and sold twice for 135-140k € after that. I was interested but got the knowledge car has repairs. The repair was done in uk, Birmingham area.

So! Two questions, anyone that has knowledge which body work shop did the repair in uk?

And, assuming the repair was done correct, what is the sensible price today?

Blimey, who the hell bought that for that money - someone who didn't know it was crashed?

I know of two official bodyshops but neither is near Birmingham so can't comment on who repaired it.

Value will depend - if it was total loss and then repaired it will have a marker against it and that will affect the value. If it was repaired through insurance but has no cat marker against it, then it would probably sell for "normal" value to unaware buyers.

For info, my first 650 went straight to a salvage company after total loss. It had damage to every body panel (except the roof), missing front bumper with some damage to one corner, total coolant loss - and I'm sure other issues - and it sold in that damaged state very quickly for £60k.

I was surprised.

this one says reparierter Unfallschaden and is for sale for 137k

but there are unfallfreie ones for basically the same price, maybe a few k more.

actually the cheapest ones with comparable mileage are in the mid to high 150s. so it possibly points to a c. 20k discount for the accident, or it might just be the current market randomness of asking prices ....

Spoke with some friends with insight in McLaren pricing. They assumed 45% was to be deducted from asking price since the car has a title. Will follow the car forever.

Is that common with such heavy reduction?

I don't really know, but I think to a degree it also depends on the country. I think in the UK the value impact might be more punitive than for example in Germany.

When somebody rear-ended my FF (minor damage, but still needed to be repaired at Ferrari, which cost 20k+ from memory) I had a long discussion with Ferrari and with the insurance company regarding value loss due to accident damage. At the time I think Ferrari said c. 10-15k Euros was fair when the car was c. 4 years old and the cheapest used ones on the market were c. 180-220k.
