These rarely come up for sale.
There is one that has popped up on autotrader that looks nice if anyone is after one, I quite like the yellow bits.
Not sure how to link the ad but it’s not hard to find, there’s only 1 for sale.

I saw that pop up this morning, I think I’ve seen it up for sale before. I’m with you on the yellow bits, gb!

Strangely one of the side badges (trident) is partially broken, and whilst I’d like to think these cars should command a premium, I’m not sure how quickly it’ll sell at that price.

Plus I think some other fellow forum users haven’t had complimentary views of this particular vendor...

I agree Andy. I like the yellow and the price is rich. My 2010 XJL SuperSport is nearly half the price.

I bought a Porsche from that dealer and vowed never to buy from him again.

But that’s not to say that this individual car might not be very nice. Over priced hugely in the current market though.

Unless someone is particularly after a black late model GTS with yellow bits and a sunroof as a keeper....when’s the next one going to come up?!

Will be interesting to see what happens in the current situation we are in though, no-one really knows what anything is worth at the moment.

I don't think it will hit home yet to many how much the landscape has changed already, is changing and will change.

I offered to buy a CLS55 just before Xmas last year. The seller had it up for nearly a year and always had the price too high by a couple of k chasing the market down. Went from £14k to £13k to £12k. I offered £10k which was a very fair price. He should have took it. I'm glad I didn't buy it now at £10k buy it was.nice enough and I would have happily kept it and enjoyed it.

Has it up for £11k now still. The WBAC price has gone from £8.5k to £4.5k in 3 months. Not sure I would take it for £8k now more like £6 but the seller still has it up for £11k and wants £10.5k. Deluded.

Many are going to get a shock.

I reckon in 9m time you'll be able to buy a 4.7 QP V 2013 for about 3.5K or an F460 for 10K.

You may think I'm crazy now but when you take someone's net worth to 25% AND eliminate 25% of jobs you see huge price deflation. I remember 911s were 50% of their 2007 prices.

Well I was thinking bad and pretty bad but not quite armageddon kind of levels.

Bold statement but I guess we will find out in 9 months.

I didn't have a good experience there when I viewed a 4.7 S, which is a shame as it was a nice car (as many of theirs are).

Could you share why you wouldn't buy from him again m8?

Lovely car but at least 10k over.
The days of the sub 10k Espada were only about 12yr ago. And they were rare... . We're heading there with most massers I fear - too many cars for too few fans

Not a nice person to do business with, having no aftersales service at all. As soon as I had paid for the car he stopped returning calls and emails, and when I went back to the garage with the car having a problem, he even refused to meet me face to face.

Suppose it’s best just treating it as if it were a private sale then and value it as such. Like you said earlier, it’s not the cars fault, could be a great example. Sounds like an independent check would be vital if after sales service cannot be trusted.

Must say, some of the valuations sound very glass half empty, or even glass 3/4 empty.

It may be a bit high, what dealers don’t ask high prices, 10k plus overpriced for this, or in a few months a 2013 QP 4.7S only being worth 3.5k is somewhat OTT. A set of tyres and some front discs and pads would write it off....

If this is a good example, in my opinion, it’s got to be worth a good chunk over £20k. We’ll see I suppose, if someone buys it, that’s what it is worth.

In my opinion it’s at least £5k over-priced...in the current climate, I’d say more.

It’s not as if it has a particularly low mileage either when compared to other examples.

There are no other 4.7 GTS examples currently for sale to compare. Just this one.
But I agree, the current climate won’t help of course.

I’d say it is priced correctly if it’s mint and has passed an inspection. Otherwise, it’s overpriced. You can’t say on these until PPI and you’ve seen on a ramp.
