I would only sell the GS F if I had secured an LFA 🤣, but if I magically had the money for that car, I would guess I should be able to afford both? 🤔

I love my F so much, has come back as my daily for the past 6ish months and it is just everything I want!

NA anything is hard to get these days!

Same here. The V8 and V10 sections of the stable are reserved for GSF and the LFA. The I4,V6 and V12 have been filled with relatively exclusive ones.

Everyone has their price!

You should have said this three months back before I parted my money for one of the last V12 beasts.. not that I regret getting it..

And another blue one has appeared 

I think that car was advertised on a rather inconspicuous website for sometime and only made it to autotrader now

The advert for 66reg silver one on auto trader is now gone. Hopefully its with someone who'll turnup here 

Same here. Didn't get a single day on furlough and had to work my a*** off during the pandemic. I was working for Pfiz** at the time and being in a operations role there was so much to deal with and happily accepted redundancy last may and moved on to a different industry. 

Everyone had their own share of pain during the pandemic, and cant generalise we all sat at home doing nothing.

Same here. I ended up added a 6.6Litre twin turbo V12 🤣🤣😂.

Jeez, I thought this would happen. The market isn't in a good place right now.

Well as long as the greedy fuel companies keep looting, people will be a bit skeptical buying big engined cars even if they are desirable.

Oh wait, it's reappeared. Looks like it might have been sold to a dealer or part exchanged.

Price drop by £2K, the same price as it was when it was advertised privately 

I must admit, that makes sense in a way.

Top gear Stoke selling it, they've sold a fat previously. They bought that at a steal personally I wouldn't even contemplate it unless they removed the wrap and had the paint work coated

The fact that the dealer used BCA pictures and couldn't be bothered taking the latest pictures doesn't bode very well

I noticed this too.

I like the look of the car, it's a nice spec.

But I can't help but think that the dealer has made a big mistake buying it unless he managed to buy it for £30k off the seller.

With fuel prices sudden increase as well as consumer confidence at an 40 year low, I think this category of car isn't one to be buying in to, especially when it was for sale for so long already at the same price.

 

The thing is GSF is a cult car with great potential to become a classic, if you think of it, the GSF is quite possibly is the last NA V8 saloon made and when the milk floats becomes a norm, V8 enthusiasts will be after these cars. Considering this there are people out there (like me, sadly not the colour for me) who will want to this. 

Oh wait, it's reappeared. Looks like it might have been sold to a dealer or part exchanged.

Looks like the silver one private sale is sold now. That was a good bargain.

The dealer is still struggling to shift this one. Dropped by another £2k today.

Sweet baby Jesus, Mary and Joseph for that matter, what an absolute bargain! Should have bought it as my dob-mobile! 🤣

That's just greediness. You already have a GSF 😝

Absolute steal for that price, would of tickled some old men in some delicate places to nab that at the bargain price. 

Unless it was nabbed by a dealer who now has sticky fingers from peeling the wrap 😂

Ooofff, they clearly needed it gone QUICKLY modified car going on there would have been hemorrhaged in price, anyone with a login able to drop some screen shots of the login ? 

Don't see it on BCA. Already shifted to a dealer?

I mean The ghost and roof lining are a win the wrap is horrendous, 6 months the owner had it, was sold by third party dealer prior. 

May become one of the "semi avoidable" models we see floating about,  any good history and works in it ? Or were the mot comments etc satirical lol

Pictures of the car were on a private plate which was not included in the sale and was transferred to a different car, so couldn't look up for MOT. 2016 model with 4 owners

Could’ve had an offer from a Trader

Prob be on a fourcourt soon £39,995

Would a trader choose a wrapped car over the other one on auto trader .. I don't know personally how much it costs to unwrap a car and fix any damages .. dealers wouldn't want that hassle 

Blimey.. that's sold already? Ad no longer active on autotrader

Couldn't be bothered to clean it for the pics I see 😞

Two things about car adverts that are beyond me, especially when sellers say excellent condition

1. Posting pictures of cars that are not cleaned 

2. Warning lights, service required and 15 miles range on instrument cluster
