What would £20,000 buy me in the Aston Marque? Currently have a TVR Cerbera but when the usual unreliability issues get started and I get fed up with them, I would consider an Aston Martin.
And you think a £20k Aston is the paragon of reliability?? If that is your main problem with your TVR, then just stay away from Aston! Don't want to be despondant, just stating the facts.
You will struggle to get any half decent car for £20k (DB7's start at early £30k's) and the older V8's will bankrupt you quicker than you can say Porsche 911.
A V8 will usually need the sills replacing every 10 years or so due to corrosion and that job alone is anywhere between £7k and £10k.
Like I say, Porsche 911.
Thanks. I wouldn't consider any Porsche for any price. There is a definate hatred between TVR and Porsche (my cars quicker than yours and all that!). From your comments I will probably keep the TVR until the engine packs in (next year) then start saving for a proper Aston for my mid forties.
