I'm 33 this year, does that make it safe to have either?

Mrs TC says the ZT is a grandad's car and at 48 I'm too young but my 22yr old solved that last month giving birth to my first grandchild - then Mrs TC is over 40 and drives a ZR with a loud exhaust.
And we share a MGF.

One of my friends always bangs on that now I have 2 children I should get the more family practical as in comfortable option of the zt. As I said I did look into it but at heart I am still like I was when I was 17 and passed my test and wanted something fast and loud and something that made me smile. The zs does it perfectly and the more its modded the better it gets. I can't honestly see me growing up and getting that sort of a car no matter how much I tell myself I should.
I second smokeys point though, no matter what anyone else thinks if you like the car and want it, have it

what do you mean it dont like corners mine handles really well, the 180 is to light and understeers quite badly the 120 handles better than a 180 and i have owned and track dayed both. And sorry but the yellow looks like someone threw up on them.

ZTs do go quite well around corners, not so well as a ZS it has to be said but then the ZS is pretty great in the bends. A 260 though is another kettle of fish, very very good handling car, hard pressed to pick between the ZS and the 260.

My wife bought her 260 when she was 31. Hard to quantify a stiffly sprung, good handling sports saloon as a grandad car...
