Wow
Sunroof and piping too Low miles
Wonder if they will px
Pretty much everything I want. Is it Alcantara I wonder?
I prefer Piano Black but the wood is acceptable to my eyes
I may chat tomorrow with the obvious Q's

Jesus that's some mark up on when RWC sold it. Immaculate or not they are chancing their arm on that one. That gets you a top rate GTS and some change probably these days.

Google rosso fuoco quattroporte

Isn't that Bourekoue's car....Or did he buy it from Meridien when they had it ? I believe that colour was something like a 12k option. Lovely colour but silly money for some paint.

Its mint, it’s RWC’s old car. Discussed on here last year when he traded it in for an Aston DB9. It’s utterly mint inside and out and underneath. Had variators done properly at Autoshield.
Thought as much. I’ve seen it in the flesh. It’s a lovely looking thing.

A beautiful QP but to be honest it's at least £10k overpriced if not more. My QP is the same age, identical in every way but with black with cream leather seats and 50,000 miles on the clock; even I can't sell it at £19,750. I've reduced the price 3 times now.
I admire them trying to get 'top dollar' for this lovely example but I can't see anyone wanting to pay that kind of money for it. The market is very difficult just now with Brexit uncertainty and all that, so I can't see this car selling anytime soon.

Dave, my identical 2009 QP is black on cream leather with piano black centre console. Just 50,000 miles, fully serviced and MOT. Currently at 'Shiltech' - Loughborough, who replaced the variators on the car 3 years ago.

£19,750.....a bargain!

Totally agree a bargain.
Problem is bargains are everywhere when I look on the UK sites I can't believe what I see you can get for your money.

This. The gt market looks to be at a stop with most on at being on there months. Noticing similar with 6.2 c63s. I'm holding off now until after brexit, same with my new kitchen purchase.

I'm looking for a Jaguar XK 5.0 and they are cheap but I think there is more to come by the end of the year.
I'm watching like crazy at the minute at so many different cars its unreal.
Nothing seems to be selling on EBay as well.

It seems odd to take so much trouble over presentation of the car, but not know how to spell Quattroporte or Pontevecchio.

It would be interesting to see the £12k preparation bill as the car needed nothing when I part exchanged 9 months ago. As Dicky said, variators had been done, Autoshield kept the car in perfect mechanical condition for me, and there was no rust underneath anywhere......... Perhaps badly treated in the intervening period, but seems unlikely to me

It is simple mathematics:

Listing price
£33,875​
Trade-in price
£21,875​
Preparation
£12,000​

That’s my car, Romans had it for sale previously.
It’s the only Rosso Fuoco Factory Quattroporte in the world.

Didn't think there was another one out there in your stunning colour my friend. How's it going by the way.
