Any thoughts as to why lancaster's (If it is indeed them selling) would opt to sell RX04NFZ via auction?
It is a beutiful, low mileage example...

As it was explained to me by another dealer, Lancaster's are only allowed to keep stock for 60 days, after that it *has* to go to auction. This is one of the reasons my DB9 was got for the bargain priceit was, it was off to the auction with it at the end of the month!

Why... I have no idea, but that's the situation. So if you know of a car that has been sat there for while, you might just get an amazing deal! :)

I really love this 575, someone might just get themselves a real bargain.

Was reading on PH earlier, some tool thinks this will be lucky to fetch more than 45k?? i think it would fetch more than that, surely?

it needs challenge wheels to make it look good. Any other wheels make it look under-wheeled and it has to be the right colour. Graypaul had a grey one in with the horrid split-rim wheels, looked like a bus.

That looks about right to me. It's not everyone's cup of tea colour-wise and that's auctions for you. I'd say around £50k for sure. However, that would be a mahoosive bargain but you lose any kind of warranty etc and you can bet it's due a service, some work and an MOT.

Mine was the same - an enthusiasts dream in green with a manual... easy resale for a dealer? Nope. A yellow 575 would be in that bracket!

Should fetch more than that Adam...but as has been said many times before, it is only worth what someone is willing to pay...

Yeah your right Enz and i bet not many will think Yellow suits a 575, seen one in person in Yellow, bloody gorgeous i thought.

One reason .... The colour ...... You would be mad to pay the sort of money that Lancaster had it up for low miles or not .... They just don't selL in that colour....Most people like red/blue/silver/black .....I like yellow but even I wouldn't buy it even if I was in the market ... Financial suicide.

Me too Adam...and one day, this colour will command a premium over other 'more mundane' colours :D

Very small Dem .... I love yellow as most know, but ....and just my opinion.....It just doesn't suit the 575 .... I think it's because its a big car ..... Far too much yellow going on on that.
