Can't say much more than the header. Please get in touch if you're thinking of selling. Good condition with provenance please. Thanks

Get in touch with Richard Grace at his eponymous car dealership and also Nareman Virk from Nuvola London.

The dealer was on TV watchdog many years ago under the name of Williams. Richard Williams is the owner and still is now for Dreamspec cars but can’t remember what the issue was but it was big enough to be investigated… Stay away I would.

That was a car we prepped and was an excellent example for its age and miles.

Tim at Carite was the customer, he’s a great chap and extremely no fuss and straight.
Yup Carite had it for sale for 18 months (not far from me), they then put it on collecting cars, and now it's at a dealer in Wales. I've only seen it from a far as we both did a prom run at the same hotel.

...the market for these is tanking. A lot of car for the right money
What gives you this impression? They are about as firm as anything really. Higher mileage ones around £45k and up, 2 seaters start around £50k, 4 seaters a little more. The peak being £70-75k for a late low mileage Centennial. The Kaimanns car has finally sold too. We’ve a couple of Stradales due in and I’d expect them to sell as we always try to ask sensible prices for them.

I agree with Dicky. The only cars I buy to sell are Strads. I’ve sold 4 over the past 2 years and am just about to hand over another next week.

It’s one of those few cars that just seems to stay rock solid. On the downside they have not gone up which is a shame.

This latest one I bought at 9 am and it was sold by 11am the same day for the price I asked, no quibbling.

I can see the GT market firming further with the new GT coming out. £200k with options or £50-60k for a Strad with a proper V8. Seems good value

May be its more the "average mileage" ones that don't get snapped up quickly. This good one as an example just seems to be being passed around and sitting in the trade for a while. Perhaps the summer will help sales of these.
