To wrap or not to wrap?

Just specced a 460 dynamic - delivery 6 months….. but questioning if the £10k for preferred paint is worth it (alternative is to have it wrapped ???) - advice please, before ‘no changes’ clause scuppers sensibility.

Wrapped cars have lower resale value in my humble opinion.

Speccing £10k of paint upgrades with not be worth anywhere near that come resale, if anything at all.

Depends on how much cash you’ve got available and what’s important to you in life.

Thanks JonnyCJ - we have to pay +100% tax on cars over in Norway, so the total bill for a RRS 460 is frankly eyewatering.
I may dip back into a base color (and invest in a sturdy road trailer for the inevitable tow home to dealer).

Wrap is removable and leaves the original paint behind. Seems like a better option than having it painted in some personal paint colour. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Usually cars that have been wrapped are covered in little cut marks where the wrap has been trimmed, leaving them only fit for a respray or rewrap.
