If I had the money and the space I would love another one as a second car. Unfortunately they have a lot of gremlins that can cost big money to put right, mine was starting to go that way so decided to get shot before I needed to spend a small fortune.

Loved every minute of ownership of mine though, they are however not really a car you can use as a daily for a long period of time unless you have deep pockets!

I was getting through a pair of tyres every 6-8000 miles (£200 a corner for something decent), big brakes are dear to replace, they are a weighty car but do encourage spirited driving which does unfortunately put a lot of wear on the drivetrain.
