I would say that's more to do with the exchange rate and the cost of transporting a 2.5 tonne vehicle 8,000+ miles from Europe to Australia.


As Simon says, literally you can ship your own personal vehicle on a RORO for about 1000-1400 quid.. so a manufacturer
shipping in bulk would mean even lower. If I spec my vehicle in the US it comes out at about $94K AUD, over here it is
a $135K AUD and that is even with corporate discount.. remove the discount and it is nearer to $150K AUD.. as i say the
local aussie market is a rip off in terms of how much the manufacturers hammer you..even taking into account government
charges yet another pommie bar steward down under

Saw (and heard) one of the prototypes on the M40 a few weeks ago - four pipes on the exhaust. Nice.

Now if only that lottery win will come in..... 90 - Gone but not forgotten

Probably similar cost to USA... but USA they sell at 20 to 30% less than in Europe....

They charge what they can get away with....


Well, we have 20% VAT included while sales taxes are added on afterwards in the US...

But yes, I still think US prices are sometimes a bit cheaper. Their SUV/truck market is just so competitive. Cheers, David

At 30 seconds-ish, the vid shows a picture of a speaker ( I think). Are they piping in the exhaust note as some manufacturers have begun to do?

Short vid

That longer video was really good and makes me feel even poorer......

I’m hoping they are fitting the V8 to mine and that’s why it’s being held at the factory Very Happy 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Nice find.

I do wish they'd give this sjit up though:

What's a paid order?

Is it different from the "order bank" from 29th Jan?

Some interesting animations.
