  Prestigious cars in the classifieds 30 Jun 2011 (News)
  And on top of that it’s an investment you can enjoy, thanks to the 4.7-litre Maserati V8, well trimmed cabin and impressive performance. It’s a better investment idea than something that exists as a piece of paper in a drawer and does nothing to make you smile. Lovely though an Alfa-Romeo 8C Competizione may be, the truest Italian supercar firm is without doubt Ferrari , and they too have built limited run machines that will appreciate in time, one of which is for sale in our deals section – the F430 Scuderia 16M.
