Hi
I've been a lurker for a while and its been very helpful to get up to speed. There are some very friendly and helpful people on the site. By way of history I've owned a GT and a GTS a few years ago but now have been drawn back to the marque and I'm looking for a second car which will hold its value and is relatively rare.
Having done a lot of research I've decided to buy a top condition Gransport and have been looking at the various options. Initially I wanted a Spyder but given the small numbers around I have more or less given up hope, and the only 4200 Spyder that catches my eye is the 90 edition for sale with Nuvola.

Does anyone have experience of this special versus the standard 4200 Spyder or the Gransport Spyder? I have been told that all Spyders suffer from body shake and don't drive as well as the Gransport. Is this correct? I've yet to test drive this car.
The other car I am looing at is the MC Victory at Richard Grace's. I went to see Richard today and test drove it today (along with a very nice standard GS) and it its in great condition with a new clutch and great history. Obviously its a big premium to a standard GS but I think the rarity value demands a decent premium.

Does anyone have experience of MC Victory's? Do they justify a premium and is there anything specific to the car which I should know about?
Any help / views would be much appreciated and thanks in advance.
