Have just got back from Malvern, it was really worth the trip. As we were in the Aero shed the Chairman approached us and gave me his business card in case I needed any favours with a future purchase.

If I go down the new route it will have to be a V6 Roadster. The Aero 8 is a fab piece of kit and it was sad that so many were going across to the states instead of here in the UK market.

There was one Aero 8, that was being painted in Chameleon and it did look stunning.

The next stage is a test drive (The factory are going to call me when their Roadster returns). I daren't drive an Aero 8 as I suspect it will be car I want.

It's interesting that you say that the V6 is a slow seller. Every traditional car I saw at the Factory was a V6, although the majority of them were going for export.

My shortlist so far is a Morgan (Of Some Description), New Boxster or a New SLK.

I have to say I am leaning towards a Morgan at present, I fancy something different instead of the usual suspects. I tried the new Boxster (987) yesterday and was totally underwhelmed. I am trying an SLK today. All that will leave me to do is try both Morgans.

Well I can confirm I have now tried the SLK and well mmmm it's nice, in the same way that the Boxster is nice. That is all I can say.

So yes I shall be looking at the Roadster and a used Aero 8. Fingers crossed.
