200k Lambo alternative…

If you like large and lairy then surely a Testarossa is in order. Get a white one and you can also roll your jacket sleeves halfway up your forearms, put Jan Hammer on the tape player, and pretend that you’re Crocket from Miami Vice. Heaven.

600lt spider has impact between a baby lambo (huracan) and the big v12 boys. Looks like it would be amazing to drive, although I never have.

458 spider- beautiful thing

Dbr2 replica. Just because

Top problem to have this one.

Would you buy from that dealer though?

De Tomaso Pantera GTS for sale at Autostorico.

Aston Martin Vantage GT8 with the manual gearbox? Certainly ticks the drama over outright performance box.

I would suggest waiting it out if you really want the Lambo. Not a lot compares to a Murci IMO - Like you was always my poster car and one I still regard as my halo car and did from the day I first saw the photos some 20 years ago.

The market is slim, as there are not many cars about - 300 odd in the UK is the estimate, and only 35 of those are manual cars from that lot, so about 10% and of which most are 03 / 04 cars. I am sure there are only 5 RHD Manual LP640s - So If you want one of those you have to wait and wait for one to come up and cant be choosy or fussy over dealers attitudes etc as they have the only car for sale and will be dealing with lots and lots of enquires over the car, many of whom will also have gone to see it, drive it and look it over.

In regards to a manual LP640, there was one that was for sale a few times over the last 6 months twice via Collecting Cars, both times the sale fell through, then it finally sold to TGE (Youtuber) a few months back. It was however well north of 270k for the agreed sale from what I have heard. The car was advertised at 350k IIRC...

I cant think of any else I would prefer to have and am still stoked 6 months after getting mine, however a nice 6.0 or SE30 Diablo would be good, but I cant see you getting of of these for sub 200k either

Maserati Bora ?

John Holland, up in Sheffield, have just taken in a stunning 2013 Aventador with 6k on the clock in Arancio Argos if you fancy that route? Up for 190k and they are genuinely a very good dealer. It's on their facebook page but not yet added to their website

Lots wouldn't.

Both allegedly, Arancio Argos??





The John Holland colour i love!

Agree, they look totally different. Give John Holland a call and speak to John Bennett, if you ask he'll take video and pics in daylight so you can get a much better idea

Love the 8c, beautiful car, but that interior hasn't dated well imo.

Merc SLS or maybe Merclaren SLR if we're blowing the budget

675LT

Fantastic cars, probably the best McLaren you can buy apart from the Ultimate series cars. Only going up in value as well.

[Its Just Adz]

Surely F12 is the car to have in this budget.

Incredible v12, the prettiest Ferrari in an age. And reached good prices.

Just don't go rosso Corsa.

Edited to add, if its got to be manual, then 6.0 Diablo.
