Hi all just wondering what people’s thoughts are ,
Keep 296 GTB 17000 miles on already fabulous car
and keep another couple of years
and put possibly another 8k miles on and suffer high depreciation or change out to 488 or 458 and put miles on one of these?

2 more years of 296 depreciation will surely now approximate to cost of driving something else out of the showroom - £20k either way at a guess

This, get the one you want.

Would a 458 or 488 feel like a step back been as your going backwards almost a decade? You could go F12 and get the Ferrari V12 experience.

My other thought is depreciation is only an issue if you sell. Keep the 296, drive it and enjoy it until your joints stop you getting in or out of it.
