So I'm wondering; how do prices differ across the world...? I'm interested
Idea of taking a few relatively solid points (new and second hand cars) and comparing them. Obviously some countries have completely different models, but most of Europe and America (the main two areas of FG) tend to be fairly samey for models.
Note to include all taxes to get it on your drive under your name (e.g. VAT in UK is 20%) but not road/driving tax or insurance or fuel. And this isn't perfect (i.e. average price not exact engine/interior/colour combination. I'm looking at you ze Germans!).
So then; a few starting points.
Cheapest road legal cars around; ?200/250?/$320
BMW E36; ?1000/?1200/$1600
Ferrari 360; ?50,000/?62,000/$81,000
Base spec New Mercedes S-Class; ?60,000/?75,000/$98,000
New Range Rover V8 (fully loaded most expensive available); ?110,000/?140,000/$180,000
Can't think of any more as yet. Suggestions?
