My T350 Arancio Atlas is away on Friday. Sold to a local buyer who will be another addition to the Forum/ Car Club no doubt.
The question is - What shall I get next?
M3CSL, 996GT3, Tuscan Convertible, Sagaris, 911 Turbo, BMWM5, 360 Modena, Cerbera, Noble M400/ M12GTO.
They are the cars on my immediate shortlist-
opinions/ experiences guys + girls please.

I can see you in a Ferrari F355 Berlinetta or GTS - Rosso with Black interior - manual change.

Why have you sold it if you haven't decided what to replace it with? Might as well have kept it. F355 is not as good a car IMHO. CSL - no faster for £10k more. Noble - fugly

No-one ever mentioned an F355, noble-fugly- yes.
Still got the TVR bug, but speaking to someone in the know today and there are a lot of new/ nearly new cars about to come on the market once things have settled at TVR the company. So I could have one of them. Just value the opinions of this forum as to what I should consider. Glad to know someone else finished work early too.

Hmm - just about as often as you change your motors - doesn't cost me as much though I bet!

Interesting - it would be good to own one of the last TVRs for sure.

I'm still working BTW. Conference calls, hands free, listen and type

Welcome and congratulations on acquiring an exceptional T350C.

Bobd

You must have a V8 for a change up from 4-cyl and 6-cyl cars.

Bob, come over to the dark side it is.
Sagaris. Sagaris - say it often enough, and repeat in front of dealer while handing over cheque and it will appear in your drive. Sagaris, Sagarissssssssssssss.

Sagaris, Sagaris, Sagaris - like rocking horse shit at the moment. Maybe if I,m patient I might get one of the six built with full lift up bonnet.
TVR still in the blood for the Blackpool boy I think!
Gotta be a good one though and no light interiors!
Richard , still pondering mate but decats and that 4litre roar might just happen yet.
Light Weight Cerb? maybe 4.2 from 2000 build on is better I believe as used same 4.5 bottom end.
No rush yet just get the right thing.
