      This is what I really fancy, but 50-60k is not really what I spend on a car.

      I've tried the 350Z and its definately a no go. the 370 I couldn't even get into in the showroom. same with z4 etc...

      I've got a 38" inside leg so generaly have to sti with my knees on either side of the steering wheel, depending on the cabin space this either works or doesn't.

      Just have to stick to luxury saloons...

        Another vote for TVR - mine was a Griff 500, drove to client site most days for 3 years (Glasgow-Edinburgh) with little or no problem. Silly electrical stuff, switches, yes, but the mechanicals are simple and solid. Agree, there is nothing like the sound of a 500 at full push. And boy do you learn how to drive when it's damp
