New owner

Hi there
I just bought a 90 Beretta GT 3.1. I've wanted one since I saw them new, but in my country (Denmark) with the car taxes, it was too expensive. I've seen used Berettas for sale occasionally, all with about 150k miles on them, paint flaking, bit of rust etc. But then I saw this unique Beretta, only 40k miles on it. Owned for the period (almost) by an old man, garaged, serviced at auth dealer. He died two years ago at age 93, his son inherited the car, had it garaged and drove it once per month. He let the dealer do the full service and put it up for sale. Buyers were lining up, but I brought money and paperwork, so I got it. And this "old man, always garaged", I have all the paperwork to confirm it, including the orig brochure where he had marked the options he would like
. When was the last time you bought a 23 year old car that was fully serviced, had correct tire pressures all around and had a full tank of gas???
It doesn't look new, he must have been a bad driver, because there are scratches on all four corners. But it operates like new, feels like new. Everything works except the rear defogger turns off too early, I've read it's a circuit breaker issue, and the front left speaker is shot.
So now I have great transportation for at least a decade.
