If you want to shift gear into a proper car, there’s a good deal on a 3 year old, but high mileage (79,000)

most others for sale are pushing 4 years old, lower miles and over £50k. Good chance to grab a bargain.

Note that it’s an 8 speed box rated to 750bhp, more than the squirrel lover is used to.
if I wasn’t happy with The Toy and wanted a newer one, I’d be looking at this as an option.

I'm told that now is a terrible time to buy a second hand car, because sales of new ones have been delayed and reduced by the current chip shortage, which means second hand cars are more in demand and thus shooting up in value.

If it's approaching 80k miles, I imagine there will be some mahoosive service bills on the horizon, hence the discount. And it's an Alfa, so you might want to take out AA membership...

I am used to actual 550 bhp of engine power, not poncy 2.9 V6

The only Italian car I might buy is a Ferrari anyway, any other car will have to have a PDK, otherwise it's worth sheet...

It's been prepped for sale well. I can't even see where the Taxi plate was attached anymore.

Here's a 2018 Stelvio with about 32K miles that's far more affordable.

And with much lower chance of breaking down suddenly...

Yes, I'm looking at new cars at the moment and my BMW is the same trade in value as it was 2 years ago However new cars have increased in price as well
