I drive my e85 daily - it's fine, a little bumpier than my last car (5 series) and quite a bit more thirsty!

I use mine as a daily mostly (either the Zed or the RR). Mine is the 3.0i E89 so more on tax and insurance - but every time I get out I have a smile and have to look back as walking away! It is going to be more expensive to run and drive than the MX5 but definitely well worth it in my opinion!
Suppose the questions at the end of the day are - what does he prefer and does he have the budget? :driving:

Now the proud owner of an E89. He managed to get finance from `bank of dad' until he starts work in September. Next step is flat hunting around Coventry and find a local specialist for servicing etc.

Brilliant, Congrats to him! ( I'm sure the 'bank' should also take it for a spin or two.. :fuelfire: )
Now some say its forum law to get some photos up... :poke: :thumbsup:

Hope to see either of you two around for a future meet! :driving:

I used my 2.5si as my daily for over two years. Just brilliant and surprisingly frugal.
