Interesting that out of the responses so far how many owners also have a Land Rover Defender.

I always wanted a Defender.....hmmm...how do you think this will go with the wife. "All the guys on the Aston Martin forum have them honey?".

I was keen on the bright red model.

I do have to say I became less keen when I rode on the highway from Philadelphia to Atlantic City one evening in one. Not really a highway car....probably perfect for nycabman in the Hamptons.

I too wanted a LR Sport but couldn't convince my wife as she LOVES her 09 Audi A4 Cabriolet... (conservative chick). I could have sold both cars (dog's car and wife's car) and consolidated to just three cars. I have to rent a garage down the street form me for the Alfa Romeo as our garage has just three bays.

Spider Veloce.

Restored in 2015.

I briefly had a new Alfa Spider while in med school. 1974 with the Kamm rear.
Your Duetto is much more attractive.
IMO the original wheels/trim caps would look even better.
