Why is this low milage dino so favourably priced.

$320K USD is not EXACTLY A STEAL. And the notion that a car, unless you can document the low miles, is in fact a 20,000 kilometer car is suspect in my mind. Odometer only goes to 99,999, so just as easily could be 120,000, or 220,000 for that matter.

It's been painted, has a fair amount of non-original stuff on it, so it's not a low mileage, all original garage queen.

It's a nice car, it's not a museum quality car.

I know of a nicer, but higher miles car that was priced similarly recently.

Lack of history must have a lot to do with it, I would guess.

 

listing seems to indicate they know the history of the car from new, but don't have written history.

 

If they had service records, generally, the mileage at the time of service is recorded on the paperwork. If they had that paper trail, then you could confirm the mileage, since they do not, that makes it a non issue. What you can't prove, you can't charge for. I don't happen to think, on a 45 year old car, that mileage should be a big issue either way. It is now running well. PPI would tell you more about that to make sure.

If you have the money, and you love the car, the other stuff will work itself out.

Is it priced right? I don't know, I don't see this as an aggressively discounted price, I think it's probably close to market correct, maybe a little optimistic. But I am less familiar with price in Europe.

So walk in with a pile of cash, make an offer conditional on a PPI, and grab it and go if they bite. I'd take 5-10% off, see what they say.
