V8 Vantage is due out in the Summer - that's what I'd go for too. Even well specced, he will have quite a lot of change out of 100K. I doubt you'll find a better looking car this year.

I'm with you on that Chris - I think the 6-series is absolutely hideous. (I also thought that about the 7-series when it first came out but it's grown on me since). I particularly dislike the front end; the headlights look waaaay too small and out of proportion with the rest of the car. It looks..........odd.

If it was my money which, sadly, it isn't, I'd go for a DB9 no questions asked. It's just an absolutely stunning vehicle.

Ferrari 430 or second hand Diablo (at least with the Diablo there has already been a big chunk of depreciation, sorry I've got my accountants hat on here )

The Gallardo is my fav car at the minute.
There is a yellow one in Edinburgh and it looks awesome.
Not too big like the murcelago, the proportions are perfect.
Combine that with the sound and the fact that 99.9% of cars
on the road couldn't touch it!

Heard the interior is a bit poor like the other chap says but
im sure its still mint compared to a scooby!

Had a peek in Top Marques and they are selling for about 125k
unfortunatly. Why doesnt he save up for a bit longer?

Simple, lots of money, doesn't read the motoring press, likes to pose...

He doesn't flaunt his money, just got to that point in life where he can afford a very exotic car, and why not...

Those who have said 'Buy a Life' are just jealous, I know I am.. but I get to go on test drives..

Obvious I know, but what ever he chooses, make sure he test drives all the ones on the short list. More importantly, ensure you get a go too

How much is a Ferrari 430?
