good price... if you like the tan interior

[Bruss]

Tan leather surely?

 

Looks good to me.

[paranoidandroid]

Not sure if this one has been mentioned before but could be a bargain if price stays low! Lovely colour too, can’t be many in the chrome orange.

That's beautiful and mega cheap, can't see it staying there or, if it does, reaching it's reserve

It’s not a GT410 Sport?   I think even the seller is getting it mixed up with one, looking at the description where he claims straight ones go for £65-70k.

I’d rather pay low fifties for a straight non CAT registered 400, rather than the 410 Sport with non-adjustable seats…

Surely a straight 410 Sport would be about 55-60 depending on mileage so it really isn’t cheap IMO, given the significant impact of CAT status on resale value.  Demand for a CAT car is probably about 10% of normal demand.

[jep]

Not cheap at all. Expensive. Sport 410 is the correct name for this Evora, despite the decals suggesting otherwise.

Silverstone have a 4000 miler with warranty for £65k. I sold Yuvi last month for under £60k with near 18000 miles. 

A very rare car, currently undervalued in the marketplace but they ain't a £70k car. Should be, with 430 at £100k but they're not.

I was watching this one for the last 7 days.  Stunning and rare car.  

I enquired about it and was told by C&C that the reserve was almost twice the bid as at this morning.   So £65k ish.    Ridiculous.    It has just finished and reached £41,250.   What a waste of time for everyone when the seller is so wildly unrealistic.    For £65k I'll simply have a very nice GT410 Sport thanks, pal.....

[WillB]

Yep, insane, £41,250 was a fair price in the current market (IMHO) 

[Daveb99]

Yep, agreed Will.   I think the final price reached was spot on.   I was the highest bidder with a minute to go but you have to draw the line somewhere and with such a crazy reserve I suspect it will remain unsold anyway.

[Troy5925]

Lol

 

I was just about to post this up 👆 as I too was also watching it

[Daveb99]

Stunning car and deserves a good home.  I bet it will stay in the seller’s heated garage for a while longer though until he/she realises it isn’t ever going to fetch £65k….

Massive waste of everyone’s time.  Seller, C&C, all the bidders and watchers, etc.

[paranoidandroid]

Yes, totally agree. Thought it would go around £43k, didn’t realise the reserve was so crazy.

[Barrykearley]

That’s an absolutely stupid reserve. 

[Bibs]

Maybe his wife has told him to sell it

[Troy5925]

Lol

 

I know someone that did the very same thing and was told by the Mrs to sell his exige and overpriced his exige by 10k so that he had an excuse to keep it

That old chestnut 🤣

[C8RKH]

I'd rather sell the wife than the Evora. But for what I'd get, it's not worth the hassle to try.

[pete]

perhaps Bibs could make her an honary member on here🤣

[C8RKH]

She has the honour of being married to me, she needs no more!

Looks lovely in the pictures!

[madmax]

Another raised airbag cover - and sixty one grand for the privilege.

This problem does seem prevalent, even on later cars, not just the LE's.

Evoras in period seem to have had such great press and people clearly love them. It's a shame they have issues like this and water ingress etc.

All fixable though no doubt and they all look stunning

[Rambo]

I'm sure I've seen that one in Gulf colours for sale recently. I think it was Lotus Silverstone. Might have been on PissedOnHeads too?
