Picture: Take your pick of second hand Lamborghinis
I recently talked to a Lamborghini dealer and I was very surprised to learn that about 80 percent of all Lamborghini, Bentley and Rolls Royce buyers buy the car spontaneously. Apparently they walk into the showroom, look at the cars on display and then buy them right there and then. But I have the feeling that these spontaneous purchases might become rarer during the current recession as credit gets scarcer. I read that for example three quarter of all BWM were leased. I just hope that all those former Lamborghini drivers will not switch to the ingenious Swiss car rental system Mobility that I am using!
I was walking along the marina in Puerto Banus, Spain with my husband at about midnight, admiring the million dollar yachts and fancy cars parked in front of them, and was surprised to pass a car sales shop that was open. My friend told us that the rich just roll in and buy cars all hours of the night.
