Blue f40 for sale

1.38 dollars to the pound, I’m not seeing the advantage.

 

for it to go to EU it wld require a 20% vat from what i understand?

 

What the VAT is, depends on what country you are in. Germany is 16% for example where,Denmark is 25%. If you buy it in the UK, you will have to pay UK VAT, but if in the EU, you pay VAT in the country you are in and not the UK.

So did sell slightly higher than expected, but no doubt that colour did not help one bit. Am I completely off my rocks saying it would have sold for about 15% higher had it been red?

This one sold a couple of weeks earlier, unmodified, no Japanese modifications and a well document history from day 1 supporting the low milage.

Also £200k cheaper!!!!

I know which one I would have had.

It’s ridiculous. The power of social media I suppose…

 

Seller Sam Moores must have thought he won big on the 'Pools' ..ohh wait

 

Germany has 19% VAT since years...

 

Is MWVMNW the new owner? It would fit well in his blue collection...

i guess there is a commission on top of the million pounds, so likely 10%, to bring the total for the buyer of 1.1 mil pounds, which at todays exchange rate comes to 1.276 million euros.

 

No buyers fees at all on that site, the seller pays 5% plus vat but as they are one of his sponsors I imagine he got a better rate than that.

Toppy price and I agree the recent standard red one was a far better buy, but well done to Sam

I think that may be the first million pound F40 to openly sell in the UK since the 90s?

 

I don’t think he owns all of these cars anymore. I remember the TDF was auctioned at the Riyadh Car Show in november 2019. The 458 SA at the RM Sotebys Open Roads auction march 2021. I don’t know about the FF and the LaF

 

i dont know what your definition of 'openly sell' might be, but quite a few F40's have sold at 1 million pounds plus in the uk in the last couple years.

 

Publically known sale price then, I don't recall any being advertised for greater than £1 million, do you have any links to those you know of you can post up?

 

i dont keep records of past sales, however i am constantly trolling thru classic driver, piston heads, etc and i have seen several cars in the uk from the likes of DK, asking 1 mil or close to that, and they are no longer there.....

DK never list an asking price, so difficult to know what they have actually sold for, auctions are the only true marker of actual sale price (rather than advertised asking prices), I am not aware of any UK based F40s that have sold at auction yet for over £1 million like Sams now has.

 

I think if you look at the F40's sold by DK and Tom Hartley Jnr, its quite obvious that many of them do sell for over GBP 1mil.

 

Silly questions but are there private party high mileage f40 selling for like 1.2usd nowadays ?

Last time I remember a 15k mile car selling for 1.2 was about 4 years ago…

 

This guy must be a genius, just a photographer and can afford a F40.

Wasn't it reduced to 16% during Covid?

 

Flavio, that was a pun, his family ran a lottery type syndicate called the football "pools" in the UK as well as many other big businesses, I imagine photography is a hobby business rather than funding the purchase of such a car.

 

I was been sarcastic.

 

Ah apologies, outside of the UK few would know what winning the pools was all about

 

Remember sitting around the (black and white) TV with parents, pen in hand marking off the Football results every Saturday,hoping to get the 8 'score draws' ....

 

yes for a half year. Now back to 19%.
