Five mil seems like a bargain compared to what UK radio DJ Chris Evans paid for a SWB Spyder California back in July - just over seven million Euros for a black/black example (2377 GT, ex-James Coburn).

agreed.....this seems like a steal at $4.9 million

Chris Evans probably got a bit to carried away at the auction. Don't think his example was worth anything near that.

And its not really fair to call him just a "radio DJ" he founded a pretty massive media company ( Ginger Media i think ) which he sold for several hundred million pounds.

Nice tag.

It's probably worth the money.

The great thing about Chris is that hew drives his cars and does not wrap them up in cotton wool. Check out his tread and the pics of his White 288 GTO:
