F40 at Coys

[petrolfumes]

Did anyone out there attend the Coys auction today?

I am keen to here how the F40 finished.

Coys take a long time (weeks) to get the results posted on their site.

Thanks

For something that has covered what? 8,000 kms, the seats were showing a lot of wear. John Barlow has a better example on his stand - and at a decent price too.

I personally didn't think much of the majority of the entries in the auction; for example a so-called "immaculate" 412 with more fibreglass in it than Del Boy's Regal, a less than clean 2.3-16 and a Daytona with a fresh repaint.

It got to about £190K, but did not make reserve...

I think the owner was looking to get £275k back for the car.

Presumably still available through Italia Autosport then, if anyone interested.

Coys have now taken the auction list off the site.

The 412 was being sold 'no reserve' as I recall - anybody know what it went for?

Thx
