Thanks all, i read this last night and there were far more posts, has it been clipped? Didnt really see any that were negative apart from one guy saying he had a day wasted, but as far as i could see the advice was about as good as they get about dealers, no?

Anyway, ive taken everything that ‘was’ posted on board and going to see them tomorrow..

Someone suggested a couple of the cars that were there were’nt really ready for retail, maybe you could pm me your findings? as that could be the ones i’m looking at and this is mu first look at Murcis in detail and some insight would be very useful.

Thanks for you input anyway, quite exasperating to have useful info dissapear!

Heard as in you are keeping it hearsay or have you seen it?

Is this the one you mean? https://www.vvsuk.co.uk/vehicle-details/Lamborghin...

Looked it over today and drove it (though this is the first ive driven) and it seemed really nice, pretty clean, couple of items they said they’d rectify as it hadn’t been prepped yet, they had no idea on clutch wear, which i find strange as i’d say its been there a while, especially considering others from here looked at it a while back.

Offered them my Murci on SOR. after several chase emails and phone calls was eventually told wrong colour and import therefore £40k less than the one on their website bit rich TBH.
Interesting info, care to email me the screenshot smile

I have to say though, what a great guy James is, spoke with him most of the day before we squeezed in the drive at the end, he was and is being very accomodating.

I feel the car suits me, was very comfortable driving this vs the AV and the e-gear is easy to use and far better than the old cambiocorsa i had in my 4200 of 2006 vintage.

Warranty offering i’ll have to look into, clutch wear needs verifying, Singapore import value i will look into but its whole and complete service history (apart from first at lambo singapore) is uk based, details of services done are being sent to me so i can asses them.

Colour i love to, even the red interior..

All being well i’ll pay a deposit and drive it back down through europe to home.

So what are peoples opinions on Singaporean imports?

Are there Some prominent dealers in europe that specialise in Murcielagos?

Not many on mobil.de or autoscout24

Whats your own opinion on it?

Thats the one that matters....
Well, normally my opinion is based on factual information formed from experience or data from others experience, which i dont have much of currently wink

I do feel that if its been imported very early on and had most of its history in the uk, then not much of an issue from me, obviously its value resale value and desirability is lower whichever way you look at it but the amount and detail of documentation creates a sliding scale of how much that value is effected vs a genuine European.

Essentially, an import devalues as it could be hiding something that could cause issues for ownership or re-sale but then that can happen with any car, just to a greater degree with an import.

I’d like others opinions though, ones with actual experience being the preferred smile

Its an odd one for me, James and Dan were really friendly and helpful for the whole day, no question.

Then had interaction with Neil on fb as he commented on one of my friends posts, i made a comment about ‘trying’ to buy from his company but getting nothing back on follow up questions, he responded by saying he’d message James but i dont think it was the message I wanted him to send hehe

Then with no further ado they sold the car without ever contacting me again, despite going into history and a teat drive, strange bunch imo, james did say neil was a bit ‘flighty’ though, so maybe it was just that..

Shame as i’m buying 3 lambos over the next year and i wont be contacting them now, very important how you handle customers that have made a big effort to come to you, no hard feelings though, just move on to someone who wants the money

I feel like you are trying to Pretty Woman them but it doesn’t work.
By the sounds of it they spent a day looking after you, you didn’t buy a car and someone else did.
Perhaps there is more to it that you didn’t include.
Maybe, but I’m polite and respectful of the rules, best left there I think smile

ETA: got it! Made me laugh thumbup
