Murcielago, if you fancy something very useable but slightly old-school and analogue. Bullet-proof engine and financially safer than most other options.
Or for something a little more modern, an Aventador, as mentioned above. Or even a Huracan (though I’m not so keen on the styling).
If you don’t need the security of 4WD, how about a Balboni edition Gallardo. Rock solid investment.
Certainly, if you are under 6ft2 and want a fast continental crusher, Lambo has lots of options, so has you covered.

Of all the exotics I’ve had, my Diablos were the most reliable, cheapest to run, least depreciating and most fun. Wish I still had one.

That was a fun little trip to Autotrader. For that money there are a lot of uncomfortable-looking sports cars or ugly tanks. And a LOT of very nasty-looking Bentley Bentgayers around.

An Aston in 4th? You really aren't one of the faithful! Having said that, your first 2 picks show an element of sense that was sadly lacking when you bought your VV12S. :D

Like I said, no particular order. Personally I’d not buy a Vanquish because I’ve already got a sportier, smaller, front-engined N/A V12, which I love. In my case I’d augment with the PF M, which would be superb for pan-European frolics.

In your case, I could see you in an F12 more than the others, but given how much you liked the Cali T you should definitely have a whirl in a PF to see if they’re worth the extra coin.

Ah yes, Vanquish also...S for that money. I said Bentley Continental as I have two children but if it was just two seats needed and Vanquish S I think. Bet that would be a great long distance eat up the miles car...
