Test drove a 5.7 - just not sure.

[5LitreV8]

OK, TVR goes to her new home tomorrow. So, I thought I'd push on and try and find a replacement.

Test drove a 5.7 yesterday evening. Trouble is, I'm just not sure. Has anyone ever managed to get a long test drive e.g. for a day or over the weekend? I know its a lot to ask, but I suffer from a bad back and need to make sure that I feel at home in the car.

Cheers.

Work in Reading, live between Cirencester and Swindon. Budget wise, low end VXR.

You can drive a 6.0 for a day or two if you can get to Kent?

Have been off work for the last two years with back problems, on the 11th march had a diskectomy and just driven my `ro` back from Greens (approx60 miles) in the most comfortable seat ever. (VXR).

Surely the 5.7 in the Chim would have been a more sensible route.

I just can't shake my TVR history - follows me everywhere!

Anyway Jellison, I now understand where your monster engine comes from!
