My mrs knew I was a car nut before we got together, so she is very understanding and she knows I will always have something a bit different in the garage.
Ditto.
She likes going to shows in the Stag, usually they are at nice places, parks, country houses etc so good for the kids to play and have a nice picnic etc.
Didn't really use my Lotus Elise much, too impractical especially after having 2 kids, hence why the swop to the Maser.
Was really after a Porsche 928 (as a kid, poster on wall, car of the year '77), but couldn't find a good enough example, then with the drop in value of the 4200, it came within grasp. Always liked the 3200, but reliability was always a niggle, sorry!
The Mrs then said the Maser was more me, always had Alfa's, Lancia's in the past, and that the Porsche was far too common and boring!
