At a guess running costs. Both fuelling and maintenance. But it's not a car I've studied in any great detail.

Ferraris of the same age may have aged better aesthetically, though.

IMHO because prices have risen sharply for these over the last two years. People's perception has still to catch up.

The braking and fuel injection systems are pretty horrible to work on. Head gaskets also like to let go if you're not careful about warm up driving.

Many of these cars have been fully serviced and mechanically perfect.Ramsport have a great video of a good example as do other agents..makes no sense that a mini can be of similar value

I've bought 10 crew cars and all but one have been horribly maintained

Never buy without a careful inspection and full history
