I bought my first Sports Car in 1969 a powder blue Spitfire .
My pride and joy. It cost £125 to buy and £30 to insure fully comp. It was a very early Mk1 much sought after these days. I kept it for about two years and then bought a Mk2 FAY 192C in White. That cost £ 250 and about the same to insure.
I do like the later 1500cc Mk4 Spitfires - by then a well sorted model!
