I just say a knackered old little 2 seater, that usually kills it, however if pushed I say Z4, it's only if there's no other way out I'll say bmw.... :roll:

Mind you at least it's not Audi TT....I think I'd have to lie if I had one of those.... :P

Trading in a wife can be considerably more expensive. Good choice :thumbsup:

Same here. I traded my MX-5 for the Z4 because it was just too small all round. You can't really compare the two as the Z4 is like a BMW saloon car with only two seats but the MX-5 is just small in every department.

Yep, that's a great description of the two cars.

I have to admit the MX5 was probably more fun to drive than my Z4, especially since it had a manual transmission and clutch. If I lived somewhere with very little traffic and hilly, winding roads, I'd still own the Miata....but I'd not ask my wife to join me either! I rode on the passenger side once when she drove, and it was indeed uncomfortable in the foot area.
