Welcome to the forum. I've only actually seen two in real life, so I'm certainly no experet. But I have heard they can be rather tempermental.

I have heard that about Aston Martin's as well...

But if you are a true enthusiast, and can deal with a complex car... Ignore them and just go with your gut, as long as there no major issues with the above car.

A specialty car like that will likely be more complex, and that is part of the price of ownership. Yet I'm certain that the driving and ownership of a car like that will be a pleasure all of its own.

At least my two cents of wisdom,

You might try contacting the Aston Martin Owners Club:

https://www.amoc.org/

They've a North American branch and there are such cars offered for sales on their web-site, and a forum that requires registration.
