Ah but he didn’t say he meant a GT!To be fair to Wattie, over the last 5 years good GT’s around 2010-2014 MY’s haven’t depreciated.

The way I see it is if you buy something that’s hit the bottom of the depreciation curve, then you only have the costs of servicing and fixing it when something breaks. However, if you buy something more modern then, in theory, it’s less likely that stuff will break, but you’ll still have the maintenance costs along with any depreciation. My Jag S Type, which I bought 2 years ago, was a medium to high priced low mileage car. They’ve actually appreciated a bit and not much has broken: a couple of ignition coils and a wheel bearing. I chose well and I got lucky … We take a decision using a bit of intuition mixed with rationale, we place our bets and cross fingers IMHO!So.... spend more money.... buy something newer that will depreciate like crazy, instead of something that’s bottomed out.

The microchip shortage which has caused the used car price rises won’t last forever!
Even cars that do 15mpg?
The Ferrari 456 was mine followed by the 360 Modena glad I did it though Chris.I resemble that remark!

Indeed ... But get it down to £20K and I'd sorted that myself!At that price you would think they would at least sort out those creases in the dash top.

And I got mine cheapest from Main DealerSprings are relatively cheap for Maserati at c £160 each
