The Jaguar XK8 would be my pick. Absolutely worthless at the moment but a magnificent looking V8 coupe.What's the next generation equivalent? The late nineties / early noughties supercar that's currently "on its uppers," waiting to be rediscovered? TVR Cerbera ? Ferrari 456, CL55, BMW 850i ? Has to be usable and currently in the hands of the "slightly louche."
I quite like the 850. My friend had a Cerbera and i have to say it was a pile of junk. Honestly i could have probably made a better job of the inside. Very poorly screwed together and the seats were just scary - i was slipping underneath the seatbelt when stationary, i would hate to think what would happen in an accident. I do like Nobles - they seem to be better quality. Or Ginettas.Well, it's good to see Charles Dunstone putting his billion pound net worth "to good use."
However, it's a brave soul who buys a hand built 1970's supercar and "gives it the berries."
Twenty-thirty years ago, Jensens were to be seen around the Clapham and Brixton, being driven by gentlemen who ran cash-based businesses: property and that kind of thing. (When they weren't parked up at the side of the road, waiting for the AA).

Not even 20 years ago it was possible to pick up a 308gt4 for less than £10 large.Actually i think any Ferrari given time will grow in value. I remember when 308GT4's were relatively cheap. Mondials are still at the low end so could be a good buy? Mind you 20 years ago we had things like the Subaru Impreza WRX or Mitsubishi Evo. And you look at what Lancia Delta Integrales go for now...they have shot up.
I seem to recall Wheeler Dealers picked one up for £10k ish?Not even 20 years ago it was possible to pick up a 308gt4 for less than £10 large.
From Poland!!I seem to recall Wheeler Dealers picked one up for £10k ish?
