You need another £100k for an 8C these days. Back in 2009 I had the choice of a lightly used near new DB9 or 8C both at £90k and chose the Aston....Doh! One of my worst automotive decisions on the basis of values now.It depends what else I've got in the garage, but 150k is investment kind of money for me and therefore I would consider an Alfa 8C or an original Ghibli?
For laughs it would have to be the GT8, Andy. But the 720, I love the design. And they don’t sound too bad, either. Wait and get the spider. They can’t be more than a year and the next Macca launch away from £150k.Two cars I would have to test drive before deciding......

The benefit of hindsight.You need another £100k for an 8C these days. Back in 2009 I had the choice of a lightly used near new DB9 or 8C both at £90k and chose the Aston....Doh! One of my worst automotive decisions on the basis of values now.
As I said on the QV thread , if I won the lottery my first trip would be to the Alfa dealer so naturally it'd be the most expensive one they did
Though those seats might get replaced

That’s very kind!Possibly, but you currently have in your stable the car I would take with plenty of change left over.
Analogue, intoxicating, an experience to look at or be in... decent GT40 replica like a Tornado or CAV.
I’ll have one of these at £130k.

A replica would do just fine, some beauties here for not a lot of cash.I see one of these on a regular basis. Or I think it’s one. Could well be a replica.
Unfortunately they’re not Oz compliant......yet.You can order a new replica from Westfield. Or even cheaper, just the kit, and build it yourself. At a guess you’d be all-in for maybe just £30k.
