I just saw this ad, for a 2015 with delivery miles.

It looks strangely cheap ? Should I be concerned it has not been used?

I understand the spider is the more preferred option, which is also reflected in prices of spider vs coupes. The relevant comparison here though has to be against other coupes, for which this is very cheap especially considering prices in continental Europe, which are at a premium to UK prices.eg if no one would have concerns about the car not being used you could easily buy it here and drive it over to Germany and sell it for a substantial premium.

Hence my concern, should I be worried it hasn’t been used? What if any costs could I expect, I assume it has a 3 yr factory warrant and presumably any issues would come up within the first year.

Agree with that, which brings me back to think it’s at a discount for being not used.

I’m not looking to flip but am interested in owning a 650, especially as asking prices has come down over last months. Ideally I am after a LHD spider but have not found any for sale in the UK and on the continent they are still at a significant premium vs a RHD spider + hassle of 8mporting might mean gap is too large and I should just settle with a RHD
