You might think so Bob, trade, just out of warranty are circa £55k at the moment.

I saw one the other day that is up for £55k trade that would retailing for £65k ish

They are really levelling out then.

Whilst I know that the auto 4.7 was launched 6-8 months after the MC, I would be interested to know the sales splits. I would suspect that the auto would appeal more for new sales (lots of people coming from DB9, Conti and 6 series/CL etc) and the MC more for used sales (enthusiasts trading up from 4200/GS). If that is the case then that explains why the MC appears to be £5k more used like for like than the auto. Mind you they are £5k more new too!

Hope you get your new drive as it's a bit quiet on here with only about five GranTurismo owners.

What sort of miles for a three year old one?

PS Another observation for the price differential is that autos tend to do more miles than the MCs.

 

[conaero]

Less than 10k

Less than 10k

Fair enough then. With 30k on the clock it would be £6k cheaper IMHO.

Got to the the standard GT is getting a great value car......Some nice ones under 40k now.....

 

[bigbob]

Cars are meant to halve in value retail to trade over their first three years so a four year old 4.2 with 10k miles pa should be £35k for a private sale now.

 

[Andyk]

Seen one for sale on PH for that but seem to start at 37k which is just a great car for the money.....Imust say even at 43k whoch most early ones at dealers seem to be up for is still a lot of pretty car for the money....

 

[dem maser]

a GT at 37k is a bargain for a 3 year old car......that was 70k!!

 

[conaero]

Indeed Dem, but what is most remarkable is the lowering of the 4.2GT still does not appear to be effecting the GS residuals.

Can you ever see a time where a GS is worth more that the equivalent GT????....now that would be odd.

I mean, the 4.2GT is still a great car and a big step forward design and build wise.

 

[dem maser]

in the next year i can see a top GS going for more than GT.......

 

[conaero]

I am finding that hard to believe but can see why it would

Agree with you but mainly due to miles as they hit Masers a lot for that.

Six months time, 15k 56 plate GS worth more than a 45k mile 57 plate 4.2 GT? The latter will be sub £30k trade by then.

Not as fast Matt but a totally different car.......Should be cheaper to run in the long term with 2 year servicing and a more reliable car.....But the GS will always be the better sports car.....
