I think the market for cars like that has effectively disappeared - companies like Vicarage were 're-engineering' Mk II's at huge expense back in the late '80's/early '90's but even then the number of potential customers was relatively small.

You’ve got retropower doing similar stuff now but each project is different. The quality of the work seems excellent though - they’ve done an excellent coupe version of the mk2

That must be for sale at Classic Chrome - they always photograph their cars on the towpath along the Thames at Putney/Mortlake ...

I only googled for pictures but yeah you're right Classic Chrome.
There's one with just 29K miles at HR Owen Hatfield.

Harry's Garage made a good review about the model:

Just a shame the engine is transverse positioned instead of longitudinal.

I've always thought that the GT4 represented good value for the money & have been tempted several times - but I couldn't live with the Morris Marina-style door handles (which have featured on & ruined many manufacturer's models).

I think that the fact that the GT4 was the only road-going Ferrari (at least until fairly recently) not designed by Pininfarina affects their perceived value ...
