Keith's Blog: What’s Next – P1800, 2002 tii or Berlina?

Christmas is approaching, and I’m wondering what to get SCM to celebrate the holidays. In the past few months, we’ve sold our Series III Land Rover 88, our Volvo 544 and all three of our MGBs. Our Mercedes Ponton went away as well, but through mishap rather than planning.

So it’s time to think about what to add to the SCM collection. Topping the list of my current first choices are an early, pre-1968 Volvo P1800, a roundie BMW 2002tii or a euro-spec Alfa 1750 Berlina. I think decent driver examples of each can be found under $15,000 and should provide entertainment for the coming winter months.

If the decision were yours, which would you pick and why? Even better, if you’ve got one for sale—or something similar you think I should consider—drop me a line at keith.martin@sportscarmarket.com. As you know, nature and collectors abhor vacuums and empty parking spaces.
