Hello all. My first post. Have been PH reader for ages but never posted anything because i could usually find all the info i needed, thank you.
My problem is: getting company car for the day to day stuff. But will need something for fun. The choices are TVR T350C or Z4m roadster ( not coupe as they seem to be holding their value rather better ).
Has anyone driven both and what did you think. I require the car to be fun but not stupidly scarey. I love TVR's having had a cerby but the cost just hurts too much. My heart says T350 but my Brain says Z4M !!!! I was impressed by both when i drove them but really didn't feel like giving them a good welly when the roads were damp. (will try again in the dry.)
I have been driving a 2 litre GTV for the past two years and have become desensitised to full on acceleration, so was easily impressed. I know how soon you can get used to it. I am no driving GOD but like to think i am a bit handy at the wheel.
Not that i can't afford to run the TVR just it happened to let me down when i needed it( just unlucky i guess ) boy do i want another one but the brain is saying you'll get as much thrill with the BM but with bullet proof reliability and solid warrenty.
I feel i'm selling out by just considering it. But realities of life mean i may have to move on.
What are T350 running costs like, how often have they let you down and is it worth all the bother. please, please answer this last point as ernestly as possible. performance wise there's not much in it!!
Thank you all.
