575 manual watch, Europe

Had a good run but anyone in UK who bought above £150 will be very tight, same going for 355 and others that have had a good run.

 

Spot on - not sure what Slades will do !

 

They might update update website to show their most expensive car as 'sold' with 'more required'!

That would be nice !

 

OK - just sold it, hard call but always wanted an F12. Amazing Nero/Crema RHD two owner manual now at Meridien.

Looks lovely and potentially a straight swap in an ideal world......

 

Sadly not - dont believe the asking prices for 575 manual just now, for sure up on say H1 2015 but 20% maybe more off peak.

 

Very kind, did umm and aaargh as very nervous re the economy and asset prices. I guess we live once and fell very privileged. Thank you.

 

Scraggy- Very pretty, congrats. Make sure she is pointed in the correct direction when you light the fuze.

 

Terry - thanks for the kind support on 575.

I am quite experienced but am aware respect is required especially if damp or cold. Many thanks.

 

Only accident I ever had was pretty much snapping a 599 HGTE in half fish tailing at low temps, hopefully that was my warning....

 

My techs scared themselves driving a customer's F12 and they were not pushing it that hard. That is lot of hp, over 200 more than a 575M and close to the same for a Superamerica or 612, plus a whole lot more torque (690 Nm vs our 588).

Incidentally, I have an F12 WSM. Kind of inconvenient since it is a bunch of separate pdf files, but what the heck. Have not bothered to glue it together yet.

 

Be interesting to see how these two UK cars get marketed over the next few days/weeks

 

so what is the correct price for the 575 manual now? sub £200,000?

 

I would be inclined to take Slades statement that they have sold the car (advertised at £259k) with a pinch of salt.

They allegedly 'sold' the Giallo one (advertised at £199k) last year and then immediately relisted it for sale at £249k. Easily done with the favourable tailwinds of a rising market....

Slades have little obvious substance (despite listing over 70 cars for sale) and limited trading history, despite pretending that they were established in 1922! They do appear to offer storage services though and that could be what drives their SOR business model.

They are possibly one notch above the fictional Knockers&Snatch, as seen on SniffPetrol, in my book.

 

RM Sotheby's are running what appears to be a very interesting auction in Milan in November 25-27th.

DUEMILA RUOTE - MILAN, ITALY | Coinciding with the Milano AutoClassica, the Classic and Sports Car Show

There's a manual 575M in the preliminary catalogue...

Not much detail at this point (e.g. kms unknown) but it's an Italian registered 2003 in Blu NART over Cuoio Daytonas (swoon!). Modulars over what appears to be a set of floating-rotor front brakes. The instrument binnacle would appear to have been re-trimmed in alcantara and it another visit to the trimmers would probably be a good idea

What's happened to this interior��? Have a look the leather (…or whatever it is&#8230 covering the instrumental binnacle or the strange shrinkage of the leather covering the passenger air bag....
