The Only 1 of 51 - 3.0si
With only 963 examples of the 3.0si roadster ever sold in the UK it doesn't take much for certain exterior / interior combinations to make for a rare car.
This is 1 of only 51 Carbon Black cars on the UK and is unique on the basis it is the only one with the tan New England leather seats - might be a nice pick-up for someone with only 77k miles

I know the market is flat, but that is a suspiciously cheap car.
Seller profile looks genuine enough though.

A bit dubious about the rarity comment. I understood a lot just got dumped into different categories this making some variants seem rarer.

MOT history is not bad, with only two owners and no accidents recorded. Full details here, but the wheels do let it down. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156123180446 ... R-Dvl9PJYw

And only 695 of those 963 were manual like this one with some being SE trim, whereas this one has heated M-Sport seats, Bi-Xenons, upgraded stereo, rear pdc, MFSW and Piano Black trim.
Seems like a good buy for someone even if the wheels do need attention!

Coupes because stunning!

Doesn’t seem overly cheap given the miles tbh….perhaps priced to make sure it sells given the times the market is right now…

Seems quite expensive to me, considering this is now 2024, not 2022.
Used car prices have gone DOWN (a lot) in the past year. Just the car selling industry, in general, is in denial and refuse to give up their profit margins. We are gradually getting back to the way it has always been until very recently.......used cars lose loads of money, on a daily basis.
I am now quite old so remember the days when an 18 year old car had been baked bean tins for many years, let alone worth four figure sums.

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

That’s a good price for one of these. Has all the kit and decent mileage too. Not sure about the condition as looking closely the front looks very chipped up but I could be wrong. If I didn’t already have one I’d be all over this as it’s only just under an hour away from me.

Is there really any value/prestige associated with owning a car with a specific colour combo?

I don't think so, although Sepang Bronze M owners might disagree.
But if it's a combo you really like you get a certain satisfaction from it.

Love this colour combo, carbon and saddle brown.
