I love the car, but I do consider whether it is worth keeping with such little use. Nothing deliberate about keeping miles low, just how it goes. Either use cash to invest more or scratch the boating itch that is building. But I know for sure the boat will cost more than the car to run!

Do NOT get a boat unless you have £ to burn! I ve just been thru that exact experience, sold my new GT4 to scratch the boating itch, 3 years ago. Just sold the blessed thing after 9 months advertised. Weather in UK is crap, wind is the issue, so you never get to go out when you planned unless you like your wife complaining I feel sick and/or are we going to die? Mooring, servicing, insurance, haul out, polish, repairs, it s never ending and that s all to be paid even before you fuel the thing.

Makes my Porsches seem cheap smile, honestly.

Now shes finally sold I’m back in the game. need to decide, 718 Spyder or Portofino, to scratch the Ferrari itch…

And I keep telling you that one Mr B Ecclestone penned the phrase (shorty after his divorce from Mrs Ecclestone)
