Considering one for my replacement toy and to use hopefully on an almost daily commute basis (20 miles).

Could go down the classic route but love the looks of the XK8 or XKR.

The budget must be under £30k, which removes alot of E-Types, so what should I go for?

Any thoughts please?

About 15k per year.

It's never a head v heart situation for me - I never use my head except to land on when I fall off the bike!

I'm looking more towards an XK though for the all year travelling and the wife likes her creature comforts - still she could always follow in her own car!!!!

Love your XKR but was trying to buy below £30k.

Good luck with the sale though.....

edited to add that I'v just bought an XK8 Convertible from Christopher Jackson's at Alderley Edge. Collecting her next week - can't wait!
