I visited Christopher Neils the other day with a view to trade my Elise 160 for a Griff. The salesman reckoned I'd suit a Chim ( I suspect because he had 3 there ) rather than a Griff ( he didn't have any )... Whatever I get I'm going to use it everyday and I like the smooth Chim very much...but I prefer the looks of the Griff...are they really that different to live with...I can't quite believe they are.
Any thoughts ?

...you're right gerjo there's no real battle they're great cars in their own right. It's just that having spoken to a few salesmen they always seem to bang on about how tricksy the Griff is compared to Chim. Why!?
They're so similar aren't they ? I believe the chim is a little heavier so , ok it might feel a little less jittery but just how different are they to drive ?
Why has the Griff got that reputation over the Chim ?
