For me personally and its taken over 10+ years and many, many cars to realise it, but its does need to be 2 different cars to do 2 separate jobs. 1 for doing miles, very practical that's still semi fun that you don't mind taking a bashing and picking up a few marks etc,etc, and another car that makes you feel special for special occasions that only needs to be used when you decide its right to use it and where it gets parked.

Are you wanting something you can tweak and modify or just something too look after and drive on specific occasions? You might find buying a more specific and sought after model will deter you from wanting to tweak and change it.

You've been drooling over RB320s for years mate.... put one in the garage and get a cheaper daily for everyday stuff.

RB is looking favourite then. I won't moan at that lol. You are all right though, for me pampering it is as big a part as driving it!. When I used the other scoobs for work I was forever getting scrapes and scratches out which I think in hindsight was part of the reason for selling it.
