I have been thinking about this for some time and wondered if you guys thinks its a good idea or not? I've been under some pressure from the Mrs to get rid of the Range Rover, its HUGELY! expensive to run and I reckon I've lost about £15k on it in just over a year I've given it some thought and decided to get shot of it .
Now after making that decision I thought about selling the TVR as well, don't get me wrong I love it and it will be gutting to see it go but as I take the dog to work everyday and he won't fit in it I can't use it as much as I should, also its costing me a fortune in company car tax. Its been a good car and its definitely a good one with only minor niggles to date. So my plan would be to sell both cars, lease a brand new shogun (or something similar) as my company car and then buy an older type r. Then I would like to strip that right out get a rollcage fitted, supercharge, increase braking etc. I would only use it for trackdays and those quick spins around the block. I quite fancy this idea but a few questions, how reliable would a s/c type r be as a road and trackday car? Do you think I could purchase, s/c and modify on a budget of about £10k?
Be interesting to hear peoples comments? Of course I could just say stuff it all and buy a
