Just got the T350 back from a complete front end respray. It now looks better than new. I'm travelling so much with work at the moment its not getting enough use ... should I sell it?

I guess IF it sold now I would not get any less money for it next summer.

Another issue is that I can't think what to replace it with. Needs to be useable for cross European blasts and really fun to drive (so no overpriced Porsches). A Z4M Coupe is a bossipility, but I'd be paying 15k more for a straight six engined coupe with 'challenging yet interesting' styling, less space inside, smaller boot etc. There you go, I've convinced myself.

If anyone is looking for a nice red Targa and isn't looking to make a stupid offer then PM me.

Have you thought about a Z3M Coupe instead? Not as fast a a T350, big boot, cheapish to run, head turner.

Too small for me, even if I did like them, which I don't (sorry). As a petrolhead I do respect them though, they're just not for me.

How very dare you... wash your potty mouth out, go give her a clean/wax, fill her with 98 oct. and take her for a good blast... lets pray she did not hear you.

At the moment I live away during the week contracting so my Tamora never gets used until at the weekends, but I would never consider selling it because it is not getting enough use.

Do what Ive done, put it up for sale but dont advertise it much and dont put a silly low price on it. That way you are at least makeing "an effort" but still get the fun of ownership

Do you think these cars can hear your thoughts? I was out for a drive today and the car is running perfectly, I had a bit of pinking 'up top' of the revs which has gone (must have been that dodgy throttle pot I had replaced), everything else felt nice and tight. I do think I'm getting used to the speed/power though.

Will probably keep it - heck, I can't think of any other car which gives me all this for the 25 ish k this one would sell for anyway. Its paid for, taxed/warranty/serviced until next summer. Sod it, nobody is getting their mits on my car.

It was on the A1. Sometimes you just have to. Nice Porsche driver though-we had some fun! Respect and all that.
