So... what car do you guys drive when not flying?

[prozac]

I get the bittsa comment however the RV8 was a genuine B and used the same body shell, I was/am not fussed it was part Rover. It was just a slightly redesigned, solid wheels, rubber bumper (painted body colour) etc. for the 1990's, and IMO the BMC/Rover last shot at the title. It didn't gain traction and by the mid 1900s, the MX5 and that ill fated ford capri we already in the market.

If I find the right one, I would most likely buy it and save what I would have spent on a Lotus.

I didn't know that and always thought the panels might have been a little larger in dimension. It looks larger...I have not seen one in the flesh in a while.
