I sold one to get my ZS
V8 sounds awesome with a straight through although the neighbours didnt care for it much!!
Nearly every time I drove it though it broke down, and I needed something more reliable. Having said that this is a VDP with carbs whereas mine was an Vitesse with EFI so it will probably be easier to diagnose any running issues.
Another thing is that the cabin is ENORMOUS! Feels like you have a huge car from the inside.
I would love one again if I get the chance.
