I drive English automobiles. My favorite is my [presently not very competitive] 1961 Sunbeam Alpine race car. But hey, a race car is a work in progress, just like an audio system.
The Alpine has more driving character than virtually all [affordable] contemporary cars. And it has something only the very exotic cars have today, namely style. For my taste, if it's not attractive, don't take it off the trailer. Were someone to give me a BMW Z convertible, I would trade it for something whose lines I like. And they drive very neutrally, which I do not enjoy.
If I could afford it, I would have a Bentley --not a 'Blower Bentley'-- but one of the enclosed four seaters from the early 20s, or an Alvis Special!
