SA Aperta for sale...

Mike430 · 01-26-2012, 12:05 PM

Owners selling off their Aperta's already! I was browsing the JamesList site and came across three SA Aperta’s available in the U.K alone and this is one of them. It's the only one with details and price.

It only has 227km’s which is delivery mileage.

Asking €475,000. VAT is unpaid on the car. The dealer is selling it on behalf of a client.

interesting: Is it me or does the stitching look a bit off....guessing it's the lighting on it or perhaps aftermarket?

Rik, I think it's just the photo resolution.

As far as Apertas for sale, I figure if you have Aperta money, the Aperta is now old news and it's time for the latest toy.

true, I also find that amount way high and with no VAT paid!!! yikes.

how many purchasers are lagitimate "owners" vs being a front for a dealer wanting the a car to sell. It's would be a neat arrangement, lend your name to a purchase contract, have new models as they come available, get to drive it "around the block", get bragging rights, then move on to the next one. A Ferrari flipper could be good work and fun. Not raining on the parade, just considering posible reality, since every car Ferrari builds is allocated. Dealers are also restricted to their territory on new vehicle sales, with no constraints for pre owned. Ever notice that all dealers have very low milage preowned inventory with unrestricted ability to sell anywhere.

wonder if they have to sign a special agreement on that car because it was a "good customer" only car.

what was / is that "club" that the factory was promoting for multi F car owners...
could that be have been a way to further / refine the identity the owners ( from possible flippers ) by the number of cars an "genuine owner" has retained / collected ( conspiracy theories in action :=) )
