I am after some honest advice / Informed opinion. I am embarking on a trip of a lifetime that takes us through Spain, Italy, Switzerland and France over 6 weeks in the Autumn. (So no immediate rush to purchase but would if the right vehicle available now)
I am planning on buying a car, in the UK, to use only for this trip and then sell it again at the end (Australia won’t let me bring it home) or may keep it wit family as have an alpine trip planned for late ‘24
I have set a budget of £17k for the vehicle. Will a 08/09 GT be reliable enough for such a trip? I’m not too concerned around fuel consumption and consumables, just need to start and go when needed!
The other vehicle options I am considering are a 06/07 Bentley GT or a 13 Merc 350SL (the sensible choice I guess)
ThankYou
