Very nice, but what is the point of having such a nice motor and only travelling 3,000 miles in the last 7 years?

Wedge I've just bought has done 1300 miles in the last 4 years. Still that will all change.....

Not sure you'd find a real Cobra for that money. Or do you mean a kitcar replica?

Oh yeah a replica... But the replicas are great, a Dax or something recognised.

That is a lot of money. I have an m seies.with a 3ltr with modified heads and it is great on a roads. The hort suspensiom does.not make it great for long distances and I do not need anymore power. I also have a 400se which is great for continental cruising.For the price of this car you can have 2 cars giving you the best of both worlds.

My lad Toby had the good fortune of having to road test a cobra after some gearbox work and the dream was shattered I'm afraid,, he hated it from the mirrors to the switches to the driving position, he said the wedge beat it hands down.

Noooooooooooooo!!! La la la la la.... I'm not listening.... This a repeat of when top gear took out my other fave car the Countach and said how awful it actually was to drive.... I'd still take my chances on either! smile
