Has anyone else noticed that the current V12VR's that are for sale seem to be sticking a bit. Are we about to see a softening on these ?

There are four available at the moment, and the Dayonta and Sandstorm one is lovely......however it's been for sale for a fairly long time (autotrader and not Timeless for some reason).

I wonder if the previous owners of these chopped them in for V12SMR's.

So the fact that the Nero black car is now on timeless, does that mean it's now a dealer car and no longer being sold on behalf of the owner ?

Long term these will always command decent money though as they're numbered, and that seems to be a big driver for things like this.

I do wonder how much they'll soften though (if anymore at all), usually I'd expect values of roadsters to strengthen at this time of year, yet I've had notices recently of three out of the four being reduced.

Will be interesting to see what prices the S Manual roadsters start appearing at when they do.

So it looks like AM Edinburgh just increased the price of the V12VR they have (Hammerhead Silver) by five grand. Seems like an odd move as it hasn't shifted at £115k, so why increase it to £120k. I see the all black V12VR has now gone so perhaps they think there's about to be a rush.

It's gone from the AM Timeless search so I assume it's sold.

I totally agree with future values etc, I just think it's odd that a dealer would up the price of something by £5k. Yes the weather is supposed to be getting better etc etc, but if I was in the market now I'd be buying the Nero Black low mileage one, not paying £120k for one with nearly 30k on the clock for a few grand less.

I assume they have profit in it at the £115k it was up for, and again you would think they want to move it on. If it was the only one for sale then fair enough, but........

Anyway, what the hell do I know biggrin

I guess the answer is be bullish and see what happens. Perhaps that's what they are doing.
But it didn't sell at 115.....let alone £120 smile

Somebody in their infinite wisdom no doubt knows far more than I do, as even with my Arthur Daley Crombie on I still can't see the sense in that one.

Looks like the triple black car is back on Timeless, so just a blip (or a failed sale), so we're back to four being available again.
