Used car deals of the week
In this week’s used car deals, we’ve sourced everything from an Alpine A110 to a Porsche 911 GT3
Having a flick through the pages of any issue of evo magazine, or scrolling through evo.co.uk, is a risk for anyone with an itchy trigger finger when it comes to swapping in and out of cars. You see a story and the tiny voice in the back of your head whispers ‘I could see myself in something like that’. And so to the classifieds you go, which for most these days, are only the swipe of an app away.
Each week in used car deals we do exactly that, scouring through the classifieds to find the very best deals on the market. This week, we've found everything from an Alpine A110 to a Porsche 911 GT3.
Porsche 911 GT3 (991, 2017)
£117,950
The 992-generation GT3 has been given its mid-life facelift, making Porsche’s flagship sports car more engaging, capable and usable than ever. At £157,300, though, it’s out of reach for most, but look to the classifieds and you can find much of the same for considerably less.
> Porsche 911 GT3 (992.2) 2025 review – the best GT3 yet?
Powered by an earlier derivative of the same 4-litre naturally-aspirated flat-six in the new car, the 991.2-generation car produces just 11bhp less, helping it reach 62mph from standstill in 3.9sec. Immersive, thoroughly engaging and just as capable as you’d expect a Porsche GT car to be, you’re unlikely to want much more. Better still, this tastefully optioned example is on the market for £40,000 less than its 992 successor.
Morgan Plus Six (2021)
£67,995
The Morgan Plus Six is no more. After six years in production, the flagship six-cylinder sports car has reached the end of the line, with a new model to take its place later this year. To mark the occasion, we’ve found this Plus Six from 2021, powered by the same BMW-derived 3-litre twin-turbocharged straight-six as its incoming successor and with a fetching spec to boot.
> The Morgan Plus Six is dead, but a new six-cylinder flagship is coming…
While its 334bhp output is no more than a BMW M140i, a 1114kg kerb weight makes that number considerably more potent than it would be otherwise. The original buyer of this particular car took advantage of Morgan’s extensive options list, optioning Bentley Silverlake Blue and Black pebble grain hide upholstery. After just over 9000 miles on the road, it could be yours for £67,995.
BMW M3 Touring (G81, 2022)
£67,000
The M3 Touring is one of the finest fast estates we’ve seen to date, but BMW has given it even more performance with the CS, lifting output, honing dynamics and tweaking styling to match. Given the price premium though, the original remains as desirable as ever, with its 3-litre twin-turbocharged S58 straight-six sending 503bhp to all four wheels for a 3.7sec 0-62mph time.
> The 186mph BMW M3 CS Touring is the ultimate fast estate
This low, 16,150-mile M3 Competition Touring is on the market for £67,000, almost half the price of its new CS alternative. It’s far from light on options either, with BMW Individual headlights, Technology Plus, Comfort and Visibility packages all making it a very strong buy.
Alpine A110 Legende (2021)
£38,900
Lightweight, rear-wheel drive and with a dedication to driver engagement like not much else, the Alpine A110 is one of the greatest sports cars of its time. It might be turbocharged and available only with a dual-clutch transmission, but its small dimensions and expertly honed chassis make it a class-leader.
> Life110 Alpine A110 R 2025 review – hardcore featherweight turned to 11
You’ll pay from £54,490 for a new A110 before options, and while that’s reasonable in terms of a new sports car in 2025, it’s far from cheap. Used prices have held frustratingly well over the years, too, but this 16,500-mile example has now dropped below the £40,000 mark, now available for £38,900. Finished in Glacier white with tasteful brown leather inside, it’s been fitted with the popular Life110 uprated springs and came from the factory with the Focal sound system, Sports exhaust and more.
Toyota Yaris GRMN (2018)
£16,492
We can’t think of another performance car in modern memory that has been quite so totally outshone by its successor and therefore, forgotten. But the Toyota Yaris GRMN was a properly feisty little hot hatch on release in 2018 – a genuine foil for its contemporary rivals such as the Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport and Ford Fiesta ST. With 209bhp courtesy of the supercharged 1.8-litre 2ZR engine it shared with the Lotus Elise, it had the poke to party, with a limited-slip diff to give the front wheels a fighting chance.
It was a shame though that its chassis wasn’t quite as well resolved as the Pug or Ford’s. There wasn’t much in the way of personalisation either, with all Yaris GRMNs coming in white with a WRC-inspired livery. It was also quite expensive, costing on the wrong side of £25k when new.
> Toyota GR Yaris 2025 review – the modern homologation special gets even better
Although the package wasn’t quite as rounded as you’d hope, it was at least rare, with just 200 reaching owners in the UK. Those cars never actually hit dealer forecourts as ‘for sale’ when new, because the entire allocation was spoken for.
The expense of the thing isn’t so much of a problem some seven years on, with most used examples sitting in the £16k-19k range. You’ll pay about as much for the Ford Fiesta ST Performance Edition, a similarly rare, hopped-up hot hatch special. But Toyota reliability has its appeal. This example is offered by a Toyota main dealer, with 42,875 miles on the clock.
Mercedes-AMG One (2025)
£3,000,000
A multi-million pound hypercar isn’t a deal in the conventional sense, but given its lengthy gestation and groundbreaking Formula 1 underpinnings, a physical Mercedes-AMG One is something to behold. Powered by a tweaked version of the 1.6-litre twin-turbocharged V6 from the firm’s Formula 1 cars, it produces a total of 1048bhp, helping it achieve its 6:29.09 Nürburgring lap time to make it the fastest production car to lap the iconic circuit.
> Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance 2025 review – the most powerful S-class, but by no means the best
While most hypercars of this kind are kept under lock and key for years in an effort to allow appreciation to take hold, the buyer of this example has let go after just 72 miles. Unregistered and finished in the desirable AMG Purist Black with Petronas green, Mercedes Silver and red accents, it’s currently on the market for £3m, not much more than its new price.
Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio (2017)
£28,995
There’s nothing quite like a Giulia Quadrifoglio. Its closest rival, the BMW M3, has offered an excellent performance package in recent years, but if outright engagement is what you’re looking for, the Giulia is the way to go. At its core is a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6, sending 503bhp to the rear wheels only, and given its relatively low sub-1700kg kerb weight, it musters an impressive 3.9sec 0-62mph time and 191mph top speed.
> Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm (2021 - 2022) review: if Porsche built a four-door 911 GT3 RS
Used prices have held strong for its entire production run, a testament to the desirable package on offer, but having covered 72,764 miles in its eight years on the road, this example is now available for a very reasonable price. While it might have covered a fair few miles, its owner has recently ticked some major service intervals off the list, with a full Alfa Romeo service history also offering some peace of mind. Finished in metallic black and with silver wheels, it could be yours for under £29,000.
Abarth 695 Biposto (2016)
£24,490
The petrol-powered Abarth 595 and 695 finally going off sale was a bit of a sad moment. It was a drawn-out existence, admittedly, with Abarth versions of this 500 being on sale for near enough 16 years. A moment of reflection on the last of the petrol Abarths got us wondering, whatever became of the most extreme Abarth? Did anyone actually buy a Biposto, the Assetto Corse Evoluzione race car for the road?
> Abarth 595 (2012-2024) review – low on sophistication, big on fun
The answer is yes, there are a few about, although if you’re hoping they all have the crackers Innesti Frontali dog ring gearbox, you’ll be disappointed. The only example we found currently for sale has the standard five-speed transmission, though it’s still got all the other toys, including O.Z. wheels, carbonfibre door cards, Sabelt seats, netted rear strut brace and adjustable suspension featuring Extreme Shox springs. As we established on this car’s reveal in 2015, keeping the standard gearbox was probably the best idea. With the dog box, this car might not have covered its 31,281 miles with as much ease. Without it, the Biposto is still near enough a race Abarth for the road.
Mercedes-Benz SLS Roadster (2011)
£119,990
The SLS is undoubtedly a future icon, a modern 300 SL with its classic GT proportions, large displacement V8 and gullwing doors. The latter is the primary reason the coupe is most sought after (and more valuable as a result), but if you want an SLS on a budget, the roadster is a great way to go. Powered by the same 6.2-litre naturally-aspirated M159 V8, its 563bhp output makes it no slouch, with 0-62mph coming in 3.8sec and top speed at a strong 197mph.
> Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG (2010 - 2015): Germany's answer to the Ferrari 599
After a reasonable 15,255 miles on the road, this classy Obsidian Black example is now on the market for £119,990, much less than its £176,895 new price and around £50,000 less than the equivalent coupe today. It even comes with bold red interior upholstery and the desirable multi-spoke staggered 19- and 20-inch diamond cut wheels.
Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale (2014)
£49,900
The first-generation Maserati GranTurismo certainly had its quirks and while it was far from the most capable in its class, that incredible V8 soundtrack and Pininfarina design made it a hit. The pinnacle of the range was the MC Stradale, designed to lift performance to the next level with a 454bhp output, an uprated chassis and design overhaul to match.
> Maserati GranCabrio Trofeo 2024 review – a worthy Aston Martin DB12 Volante alternative?
These upgrades didn’t come cheap with it priced from £110,000 before options, but after 31,450 miles and a decade on Britain’s roads, this Bianco Eldorado example is on the market for under £50,000. Coming with the Comfort package for those trips across the continent, the sharp 20-inch diamond cut Trofeo wheels and two-tone black and red interior, it’s a strong spec too.
BMW M4 GTS (F82, 2016)
£78,990
With a 190mph top speed, GT4-inspired aero and a unique water-injected intake system, there’s no doubt that the F82 M4 GTS is a special BMW. Launched as its fastest road-going model ever, the GTS took learnings from BMW's motorsport programmes and applied them to its already-capable sports coupe. The catch, though, was its £120,500 price tag – twice that of the standard car…
> BMW M5 CS Fast Fleet test – 9000 miles in the eCoty-winning supersaloon
Unusually, despite its limited-run status, the F82 GTS hasn’t appreciated in value, and has instead depreciated considerably in the eight years since its launch. After 6251 miles on the road, this white example is on the market for £78,990 (less than the price of a standard 2024 M4 Competition), and it’s not light on options either.
Aston Martin Vanquish S (2004)
£69,950
The Vanquish name has been revived for 2024, with Aston Martin’s flagship super GT packing an all-new design, interior and the marque’s most powerful production V12 yet. As you’d expect though, its price has also been inflated to match its performance, with a starting figure of £333,000. If that’s a little steep, you could instead bag this original Vanquish S for over £260,000 less…
> The new Aston Martin Vanquish is an 824bhp, £333k Ferrari 12Cilindri rival
Powered by a 520bhp naturally-aspirated 5.9-litre V12, the original is hardly lacking in performance, and while its automatic gearbox has room for improvement there’s no denying its traditional GT appeal. This particular car has just two owners on its books, 26,700 miles on the clock and could be yours for just shy of £70,000.
