Very nice indeed... What's the mileage like? Which one are you keeping and why? I know which one I like :thumbsup:
That's a tricky one as I really like them both BUT I cant really justify in keeping both in the long term, (one bum two seats and the running costs) The Imola is a bit less mileage just over 90k against 107k but that's not really an issue. The major bits on the Titan are now all done suspension Vanos, brakes new windscreen (and a load of other blingy bits) and I know it a cracking well sorted car that's a joy to drive. The Imola is however my perfect choice in colour especially with the red/black interior (ever since a chap parked his very nice S54 next to me at Beaulieu last year and made me drool I have wanted one) and I didn't think I would find one at the right money but chanced on it Saturday night and as it happened @Low Rider was with me and kindly (again) offered to run me around the country to go look at it and help me bring it back should I buy it. (Top Man :thumbsup:)

I will have to do most of the same to it get it up to scratch and where I want it though which means spending another shed load of money that will need to be offset long term by selling the Titan, but I can take my time with this one and spread the cost over the year (or two) as I have the silver one to enjoy this summer. So at this time looking forward I want to keep the Imola and to be fair I bought it with just that intention.

He doesn't want any tea cup stains on it :whistle:
That's not fair, I would obviously put a coaster on the bonnet, or boot lid, before putting my mug down.;)=))=))

Noooo, keep them both! The increase in value over the time of owning them will easily out way the cost..... Free fun! Almost as good as free s@x!!=))

@BMBabe is the only determining factor when it comes to running two Zeds!! Gas use in one car at a time not two because the second is just sitting so no extra expense there. Buy up a few more and get a dealer plate if they have them there and just switch plates to whichever you want to drive each day. Problem solved! JIM

Keep them both - get some spots in that big shed - create some ambience and charge for viewing - will sort the upkeep question! :D

That plate definitely rings a bell.

Look @Nodzed its clear that you never got over your Montreal Blue 2.8 and you are trying in vain with these M's to fill the void. So I'll do you a favour and take one of your hands (the one with working vanos and fresh suspension thank you ;) ) in exchange for my Montreal Blue 2.8.

But you'd need to let me come and visit the 2.8, very attached, going 6yrs ownership, longest I've had car ever actually.

The cars from Southsea the chap had it since 2014 so you may have come across it if you've been at a meet in Hampshire?
