this one to be precise:

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/211097.htm

it's not mine, but i did enquire about it in c. jan when it was up for 99k.

what is a realistic price for this do you think?

one on AT for £20k less

http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/ASTO...

maybe not the same spec etc etc but the one you have selected does seem to be priced at the upper end of the band

That's at Tom Hartley's. 2000 miles.

£20,000 cheaper.

yikes


The OP car is hopelessly hopelessly over priced.

Those wheels are utterly repugnant!

Kahn wheels would not help the resale, Certainly not everybodies cup of tea and not mine either.

Quite right. Smacks of boy racer and no class.

The market has moved since they priced that at £89k, it will sit there a long while when you can get official main dealer stock with great spec at under £69k!

Are you sure that's not an 07 car (tungsten with black and blue interior, owned by some lifestyle coach).

The one on AT is green. Not a popular colour and this will effect the price.

That's the one - 08 spec but 07/57 registered. Not sure about the lifestyle coach bit. Two-tone interior not a good choice IMO but reckon you could live with it. Nice looking car otherwise.

Used approved coupes going for £48,500 with 20k on the clock, 2.5 years old - tempting!

IMO it's not especially cheap. Dealer supplied cars with a couple of k miles on are the same money. If you're going to use the car, 2k miles isn't going to make much (any) difference to the price.

Could be coincidence on the name:

If no one wants the colour then that might not be enough. People who buy Astons are probably more fussy about colour than any other brand.

The photos section of that site shows he's also got / had several lambos and a Veyron?

Pic from that website. Appears to confirm it is the same car.
