Ah shame about the Elise chassis...maybe take up yoga and try again in a year :D They are better looking in my opinion and of course much more visceral and exciting to drive than a Z4. I do always hammer on at people they should own one even for a year before they miss the chance!

I do like the old 1990s SLs they look classy but obviously dont have modern set ups. 2010's SLs are a good deal right now, even 5.5L ones are well within budget. Obviously a bit more GT than the Z4 (which is a GT in its own way as well).

I have had an Elise and there is nothing to compare on the road, handles incredibly well and would take one in a heartbeat as a toy, mine was a daily driver but lived with it for 18 months.

Think the F-type is the way to go on looks

I did toy with the idea of going Porsche but the thoughts where always tempered by that thought of “If only i spent just £x more”

So I stuck with the BMW product !

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:
