Not a car around for sub £350k with Roman trying it on at £750k
A wonderful car and a certain future classic, but trying to jump on the classic car bubble like this looks like pure opportunism. A number of these cars didn't sell for less.
Glad I got in when I did.

Until you start subconsciously thinking about how much depreciation every mile is costing you. People say they’re immune to it, but it does creep in to your mind……I honestly don’t think high inflated values help anybody enjoy their cars.
No different to when..
355’s were 40k
F40’s were 150k
Diablo’s were 50k
I could go on…
Decent supercars cars, in limited numbers, will inevitably go up after they’ve bottomed out. Don’t see this rise as any different tbh and you can’t deny the 675 is one of McLaren's finest moments which people are finally waking up to.

I've still not driven anything better, at any price, so they are worth what people will pay. Been a few for sale recently as those who are not fussed and probably bought as investments years ago try and get their money back to buy whatever floats their boat.
They may go down, they may go up, they may do nothing. But what you will find is the vast majority of long term owners don't really care as they are not selling, or buying, just enjoying.
Once the collector / investors have sold the market will change as the cars will all be in the hands of real fans.

As soon as they become considered an investment they start getting bought up and stuck in storage. They cease being a car and just become an asset as part of a portfolio. It's not hard to see it happening; there are 14 on sale on autotrader at the moment, of which 6, almost half, have covered fewer than 300 miles a year on average since new.
I hope that's just because the real enthusiasts who like to actually drive their cars are the ones who aren't selling.
I think it’s well justified, they were too cheap for too long.
Interesting values haven’t really risen yet in the US (which normally leads) or on the continent. You can still pick up a tidy example stateside for US 200-250k.
PS the £750k example at Romans is a 1/25 Carbon Edition and to my knowledge they have never fallen below £500k.

yeah the carbon cars were never cheap as far as I can remember - as you say probably around the 500k mark, which makes sense if a standard car bottomed out at 200ish (?)Interesting values haven t really risen yet in the US (which normally leads) or on the continent.

There are 5 675 LT's for sale across the entire US currently. The cheapest (including local State sales tax) is $385k and the most expensive is $438k.EK993 said:

Prices are starting to move stateside also then. Although actual transaction data ranges from low $200k for coupes to $340k for a low miles spider so far this year. Quite mad when a tidy Speciale can fetch 7 figures now.Europe doesn’t seem to have changed from a year ago.
