Is £ 220,000 fair for my Speciale?

Should have kept the Scud. It's gone up 20k since you bailed.

Has it really ? Granted advertised prices have but I've not seen many of the 15,000 mile cars sell at those prices.
Ran the car for 6 months and made a little so not bothered.
Anyway the property has gone up more which I knew was the "sensible" option and the rental income is nice beer money

Whilst you owned it (and the Gallardo ), advertised prices were the benchmark you constantly crowed about. A strange change of opinion now you don't have the car(s)

430 Scuderia was bought more as an investment whereas the 650S is purely to drive knowing it will depreciate so yes you can be bothered and not bothered with multiple cars.
Why it didn't work for me was I wanted to drive the Scuderia more rather than just look at it even though it was appreciating whilst doing so
That money is now in another rental property which I can't drive even if I wanted to and the capital and rental income will outstrip the appreciation on the Scud.

Having an appreciating car doesn't really work for me but at the same time no one wants to be losing their shirt every 12 months

All you talk about is money.

So GBRF430f1, having been a multiple Ferrari owner, you were unable to secure an Aperta. Shame, that. So was your Scud new and spec'd well? Or don't you do that - spec well and/or buy new ferraris? And when you talk about a sizeable deposit, who much is sizeable? I'm sure ferrari dealers take the same size deposit from all customers.....

Do you feel the attention that F1 team is currently enjoying, will at some point be reflected in the road car sales?

I feel this - everyone loves a winner (F) and everyone loves to hate a loser (Mac) Mind, I don't even think if F1 results were currently reversed this would help
car sales for the Mac brand...
