£75K still?!!!

[TP321]

I cant believe that 2007 R8s are still £75K. Soon F430s will be cheaper (2005 year ones). Surely this cant carry on - what is trade paying for them at the moment? And are R8s selling at these prices?

Not sure but the difference is the Audi is more of an everyday car than a 430 so is likely to have a wider audience.

Dr G in another thread said:

Very nice R8 popped up at £69,950 at a main dealer yesterday. Everything other than small, cheap, economical hatchbacks are taking a thump.

Good time to buy something fun though!

I think you may find that trade in on a 2005 F430 may not be far off 75k now ... hell of a bargain in my book.

There's an R8 on Autotrader 57 plate with 11,000 miles for £69k from an Audi dealer.

edit: missed that 'other thread' quote above. doh

You might find one at the moment high 70's, but that would be a manual car with high miles. For even an early 430 F1 with 10-15k+ miles, you're still talking about £85-90k.

I'd know, I've been keeping an eye on em'!
