Rock-solid Alfa residuals

	Alfa is expected to build only 500 of its beauties every year, and according to our sources UK buyers now face a two-year wait to get their hands on one

Exotic car speculators have two new models to get their hands on. The gorgeous Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione (image) and storming Audi R8 both made their world debuts at the recent Paris Motor Show.

However, with low production volumes and bulging order books, you could miss out if you haven’t already secured a place in the queue. Alfa is expected to build only 500 of its beauties every year, and according to our sources UK buyers now face a two-year wait to get their hands on one.

Enthusiasts who put their name down early are assured of rock-solid residuals. The last image-raising Alfas, the RZ and SZ, still enjoy a strong following, while good examples of Audi’s short wheelbase Quattro are highly sought after.
