Selling or Buying a De Tomaso?

Car manufacturer De Tomaso was created in 1959, in Modena, by Alejandro De Tomaso, former racecar driver from Argentina. Initially, De Tomaso built racecar prototypes, including a Formula 1 model for the Frank Williams team in 1970. The first road car was the Vallelunga model, presented in 1963, fitted with a 106-hp Ford Cortina engine, and built on an aluminum chassis with a glass-fiber body. The second model was the De Tomaso Mangusta, penned by Giorgietto Giugiaro and fitted with a 4.7-liter, V8, Ford engine. Produced from 1968 to 1970, the Mangusta was named after the arachnid mongosse, which was the main enemy of the cobrareferring to the AC Cobra. Pantera I and Pantera II models were the most popular models made by the brand in the early 1970s and early 1990s respectively. At the end of the 1990s, De Tomaso produced a model called the Guara in very few examples, due to financial difficulties. After filing for bankruptcy, the brand was bought by Chinese car manufacturer Consolidated Ideal in 2015.
