I have a bit of a dilemma (granted a nice one to have) that I need some help with.

I want to spend around £100k on a car that will not suffer too much depreciation and dare I say it, potential to appreciate...

I have whittled it down to three motors that all bring something different and special to the table in their own unique way.

I love a manual but the 599 Gtb Has the Enzo engine! And is a very special thing.

V10 R8 manual is rare and that gated gear box is awesome!

The V12 Vantage S manual is the ‘newest’ of the bunch and comes with a warrantee but they all are dated on the inside...

Prices for all cars have held strong...

What are your thoughts on the matter?

None of these are investment cars IMO.

I'd go v10 today.
But that's my feeling today.

Nice problem to have!

None will appreciate in the near future just test drive them & see which one you like the best.

I'd hazard a guess and say the 599 will be the safest place for your money in the medium term out of the three if buying in the £100-120k bracket.

As above, drive all and see which floats your boat.

I worked at a main dealer and the 599 is big and feels it from the drivers seat, makes a B-road feel narrower than it really is in others cars, having said that it is something you quickly get used too and it is a brilliant car and slightly under-appreciated currently I believe.

Enjoy the hunt!

Cheers,

Chris
