This car was listed at this month's sale at Anglia Car Auction.

http://www.angliacarauctions.co.uk/en/c ... -16-laser/

It didn't sell but I think quite a bit of DAT (dealer added tax) has been added to whatever price was agreed outside the auction gates. Still, that's business.

When will the price rising stop? That was the price of a 3.0S three or four years ago.

These rising prices are taking a lot of enjoyment from ownership, I do hope they go the other way soon.

:agree: And with Paul G's comment.
The bubble will burst at some point, and alot of people will get burnt.
Some dealers are the biggest culprits, hiking up the sale price of these cars, and then private sellers follow suit.....That in turn raises the prices of new and used parts, and :turd: condition cars are suddenly worth a fortune too :doh: Viscious bloody circle.

And good old 'Mr Average', gets stiffed all ways :banghead:

There don't seem to be so many used car dealers with actual showrooms these days. It's in a very well-to-do area too, but it's a shame the dealer can't spell "collector"! :)
It looks like a nice car, but then it should be if the 56,000 miles are genuine.
