Hi. Looking to buy a car around £100k maybe a bit more in December with a view to selling March/April

Happy to take a £10k loss when selling.

Thoughts are:
Ferrari Cali T
718 GT4 / Spyder
Taycan
Emira
Lambo Urus

The theme is a nice motor but key is not to lose more than £10k to break even would be ideal!

Many thanks in advance

I think you’re daft, but hey, it’s your money.

My best guess would be an Emira, if you can get one.

The more I think about the cheapest Urus being 185k. The more I wonder, is it half term?

I’m 46 it’s a serious question.

Urus is out didn’t realise how much they are.

I'd say the 650S is a good shout:

Given your other thread, I have serious doubts about whether your plan is a good idea, and you could open yourself to some serious tax issues, as well as confidence from the other company.

I understand the hesitancy. I’m trusting the advice just now.

Mclaren 650 do they really hold their money.

Generally mindful the market has flattened and even reading on another thread gt3 and gt4 can be had quite easily now.

Used 981 or 718 Spyder will increase in value into next Spring. Buy pre Xmas as cabs seasonally out of favour especially limited run.

18 month lead time on V6 Emira FE orders and 2yr + lead time on the i4 FE suggests £20k premiums are currently realistic.

They're not dropping & have been pretty static for a while, it's the same with GT cars prices have stayed static but none are rising.
