I'm currently thinking of buying a 600 LT Spider.

Like all cars prices seem to have firmed up over the past couple of years but are these actually selling ? Many seem to have been for sale for a while.

I'd be very interested to hear owners reliability experiences and also what those in the know think of the current prices.

Seen a lovely 18000 mile car advertised at £160k, the mileage indicates that it should have been reliable but is it simply too many miles for the money.

All advice appreciated.

I tyre kicked a purple one that was for sale up in Scotland June/july ish last year. High spec...all external carbon, senna seats, MSO paint. It was up for 145k.

Decided to hang onto my 570s Spider a bit longer so never ended up pursuing it.

That same car now would be 15k + more looking at current advertised prices.
The prices have certainly shifted up, but I’m not convinced they are selling at these prices, Clinkard sold a Segestria Borealis recently anyone know that it was up for ?

Anyone know/seen this one, pretty much all the carbon and desirable options yet seems to have been for sale for 9 months ?

Having now tried both the Senna and P1 seats I’d be happy with either, Senna’s look better but P1’s easier to live with.

I do fancy as much exposed carbon as possible, been holding fire waiting to see if a Sequoia Borealis that was possibly being sold materialised but now looking unlikely.

Trouble is the longer I wait and see that none of the cars seem to be shifting the more I’m inclined to wait and see if prices drop over the coming weeks.

I was at my Mac dealer today.

5 x 600lts for sale; 3 spiders 2 coupes.

Another 2 cars at the side had plates on them so I am guessing customers cars.

I am guessing the 2 year deal cars are reappearing.

Not seen it like that since pre covid.

It made the 2 x 570s for sale look like the rarer car.

They said they were still selling cars at an alarming rate though.
Interesting that they told you cars were selling at an “alarming rate”, not sure if that really means that they are alarmed by the lack of sales !!.

You mentioned in your earlier post of the Napier car being for sale for sometime and having been offered it a while back a £135k, What with all the talk of a number of pcp cars appearing soon I’m wondering whether a summer with the 600lt might end with taking a very cold bath.

Take the talk of the PCP'd cars with a pinch of salt, it's been massively blown out of proportion. You are not talking about hundreds or even dozens of cars, it was literally the last cars off the line, most ordered as stock cars by dealers, nearly all were coupes as well with a few Spiders. Most were also in 2019 so most have finished now, there were very, very few new 600LT's from the summer of 2020......so don't listen to the people telling you that a glut of cars are going to be hitting the market. I'm on a 600LT owners Whatsapp group and can tell you that because of the stronger than expected residuals, a large number of people have either extended their agreements or bought them outright given what they are currently worth, so thats even fewer cars coming to market.........
I think your right on the PCP issue, may pm your again re spec if that’s ok
