Did he? Or did he just pay the market price? Seems to me that there are two price levels for any car such as these. One is the auction price / dealer trade price / owner selling price and the other is the dealer asking price / advertised price with the difference being the dealer profit margin plus the dealer negotiation margin.

In this case whoever bought it got the price that all the dealers and interested individuals who were in the market thought it was worth on the day. Many private individuals will pay a dealer selling price for the comfort blanket they think that offers and in this case it likely would be 20k higher.



£160k wanted for this max at Brands Hatch - big difference
