That particular 720s is lovely and a "bargain" at £130k. Someone got themselves a bloody good deal.

Until 6 months time when it’s worth half that again ;)
How about not having a sig at all?

Probably 250k lent to the new company from a group company to show a loss and not pay tax? :D
Based on the cars sold they are over £300k up, nice idea but they have the podcast and monkey Harris promoting it all the time, good luck to them!

They certainly did and I would expect more of the same to follow.

How long can Mclaren keep doing their thing when people know their cars will tank this much value so quickly? £3,000/mile is a little over “normal” for most people!

I suspect most people can't afford a £250k car though...what's £3k a mile when you're in the 2 comma club?

Although it has doors that open like this \./ so I suspect they're in the 3 comma club. Only poor people have doors that open like this -.-

People seem to be waking up to the economic impact of this, I am certainly holding off a new daily for a few months.

Someone paid £6k for a shitbox XR3 🤯🤯 They were rubbish back in the day so I can only imagine how awful they are now.

I just saw that, even if it needed a couple of grand of tidying that looks cheap.

Anecdotal evidence but I’ve seen a few adverts go up for Mustangs were the seller is sounding desperate (and also asking silly money, but that’s beside the point), one citing they need the cash due to no income and bills to be paid and the other pushing for the car to sold in just over a week from initial listing of the advert with more desperation as we approach this weekend (end of the month problem maybe?).

£73k for an M3 CSL though :shock: (plus £18k for the plate off it)
