[quot;););););)e=70proof]interesting that when evo did a feature on the greatest 'analogue' drivers supercars, including the f1, the lp670 sv was taken along, not the 599 GTO iiRC... they liked it so much they featured it again this year...

sept 2013 edition.... are these the greatest supercars ever made..... f1, zonda, f40, f50, cgt, sv and noble.

quote "it's intense, and pure magic when you get the sv in the sweet spot""delivers an unforgettable experience that wants for nothing. Fabulous"

so, get the one that gives you the best boner.... hth

Obviously I am totally biased though I did wonder why the "greatest ever" based tests we had done with the SV had not included a gto or a 599. I wish I could say I have tried both, unfortunately I haven't so until I do the SV is the better car (ask any ten year old) and wiser investmentlaughlaugh

And mine is faster wink

Wow, £150k is a heck of a premium for RHD!

Surprising / interesting thing is no one has suggested anything else?

Jeez........495? It's not on their website. Foskers had a red RHD at 1K ish for around that amount. Any idea how many miles the DK example has? Please tell me it's near 3K smile

I went to view the foskers car before I bought mine but it sold to quick. It was px with a Daytona and got every penny of asking, if anything from what I heard the Daytona was undervalued ! I know of a 10k mile plus rhd car that sold for £400k a while back and that sold very quickly. Dk have sold 2 LHD GTO for £345k each both within a week recently. These two are brand new stock.

Cheers, that's helpful news I'm going to share with Mrs Camlet who believes I'm as mad as a box of frogs when it comes to cars, especially the original loaded cost of the GTO versus the same for the GTB. Great pic of your cars btw.

Thank you. Yes I'd hold on to it for a while. Will be interesting to see what happens next year with China finally allowed to import classics but the doom and gloom going on in the world at present...

Not around Dunsfold.

The SV is often underrated, I fondly call it the underdog with a bloody big stick and is certainly one of the last old school OTT supercars.
