Now seems to be languishing at
£66K, but no doubt there will be a surge during the final 24 hours. Hard to think that it will beat the earlier auction price, but it only needs two buyers to fight it out, much like the recent sale of
Nissan R33 GT-R NISMO 400R [v6plaque]40[/v6plaque] (of 40) - there were two bidders who really wanted this particular example, which is not a surprise given its rarity and unicorn status.
Must admit I too had a less-than-ideal experience with CC when I approached them to list my S2000, notwithstanding the fact that they did not have a clue about the S2000 market at the time (in 2020, during the pandemic), so ended up going with
The Market, which was a very pleasant (and hands-free) experience. They handled everything, including storage for the duration of the auction, any viewings before and during the auction, and, finally, dealing with the buyer afterward and ensuring that the buyer paid up and collected the car within the designated time window.
More recently (in 2022), I did attempt to get one of the others. which was not as straightforward to value, but nevertheless, the experience was more or less similar. There was no change, even though I used an intermediary - it seems that CC's mode of operation appears to set the reserve at a figure that is lower than optimum, which is more beneficial to CC's bottom line rather than achieving the seller's objectives.
