Why has the Revuelto suddenly become cheaper in the Netherlands?

We take a closer look at the Lamborghinis and Maseratis that have been registered so far. However, with the Revueltos we encounter something strange…

In the previous part we delved into the RDW register, looking for the Ferraris that received a new license plate in the first five months of this year. In this sequel we drive from Maranello for about half an hour to the northeast, where we encounter the Lamborghini factory in Sant’Agata Bolognese. This brand is listed under two names in the RDW register, namely ‘Lamborghini’ and ‘Automobili Lamborghini S.’. That doesn’t really make the search any easier, but let’s move on…

Urus

In May, more than 700 Lamborghinis were registered on Dutch license plates for the first time. Almost a third of these (227 units) are an SUV, namely the Urus. We can divide these into 185x Urus, 25x Urus Performante and 17x Urus S. In the first five months, 46 new license plates were issued to Lamborghinis and in 21 cases it was a Urus. We haven’t seen the SE yet, but that won’t be long.

Revuelto

Earlier this year we welcomed the first Revueltos, see for example this Car Whiz Spot of the Week. On June 1, five were registered, one yellow, three orange and one green. Nice and striking colours!

When reading the article mentioned, we came across something interesting in the RDW data. It turns out that the registered list prices of the Revueltos have been adjusted!

The orange Revuelto with license plate Z-159-HF initially cost €710,157, but this has now been corrected to €688,543. The yellow (Z-350-GR) has also received a ‘discount’ and is now €628,378 instead of €649,992. Both cars have become exactly €21,614 cheaper. We made some inquiries with Pon and it turns out that there has been an adjustment in the BPM. If you still have a Revuelto on order, that is good news.

Huracan

Back to the RDW search. We see that there are thirteen Huracáns that have received a new Dutch license plate in the past five months, but unfortunately it cannot be determined from the RDW ‘trade name’ which types they are. Fortunately, there is still some more data available and if you study it, you will go a lot further.

So we ultimately end up with two LP610-4, two LP610-4 Spyders, an EVO, two EVO Spyders, a Performante Spyder, two STOs, a Tecnica and two Sterratos.

Aventador

Of the remaining Lambos, we would like to take a look at the predecessor of the Revuelto, namely the Aventador. Between January 1 and June 1, three were registered: a gray LP700-4 Roadster from 2013, a yellow LP750-4 SV from 2018 and finally a black LP770-4 SVJ Roadster, according to many, the most impressive version.

Maserati

Since we are already talking about the car manufacturers in the Modena region, we can also immediately look at Maserati. Although the brand was founded in Bologna in 1914, its headquarters have been in Modena since 1940.

In the first five months, 92 Maseratis were registered on a new Dutch license plate. And here too there are interesting examples.

Folgore

As is known, Maserati has also taken a step into the world of EVs. In January we welcomed the first GranTurismo Folgore and not much later the first three copies of the Grecale Folgore were registered. Now we just have to wait for the first GranCabrio Folgore, then the entire Folgore series will be available on a Dutch license plate.

MC20

A modern Maserati that can truly be called a supercar is of course the MC20. On January 1, eighteen were registered, half of which were the convertible version, also known as the MC20 Cielo.

The model is certainly popular, because six were added in the first five months of this year, two regular MC20s and four Cielos. It is striking that there was only one completely new copy, the rest were “second-hand”. In any case, that saves a lot of BPM.

Mistral

Just like Ferrari, Maserati also has a very impressive history with beautiful and very valuable models. One of these models is the Mistral: named after a powerful northern wind in eastern France, making it the first in a line of classic Maserati GTs to be named after a wind.

In January, a Mistral was registered with the RDW and it turns out to be a very special one Mistral 4000 Spyder from 1967. Only 123 copies of the Spyder were built, with the 4 liter version being the most popular. The car left the factory in black and went straight to the United States. A complete restoration followed in 1986, including a “repaint” to white. In 2022, the car fetched a handsome sum of £299,000 at auction at Goodwood.

A6G 2000 Zagato

Even more impressive than the aforementioned Mistral is an A6G 2000 Zagato from 1955 that was registered in March with a Dutch license plate. It turns out to be chassis number 2108, which left the factory in 1955 with a prototype body from Allemano. However, on the way to the first owner, a fire broke out, which largely destroyed the car. Only in this century was the remaining part (chassis, engine and gearbox) combined with an original Zagato body that was originally on another A6G 2000 chassis, namely 2102. In 2015 the restoration was complete and the car also received some participated in the Mille Miglia several times. At an auction in 2018, the expected proceeds were around 2.5 million euros, but the car was ultimately not sold. How great is it that this car has found its way to the Netherlands!

1. water wet say

   When I look at a car/license plate on the RDW database, I always only see the list price. How do you see the sales price including options etc? Am I not looking properly?

     The ‘list price’ of the RDW is the price of that specific car, including options etc.
