I too, considered one and test drove one like others. But as a practical car there no good.

Superb performance, good handling even though i dont feel that safe low down.

The look where nice at front and side, but i never liked the back.

The interior is horrible and extremely basic, i felt it was uncomfortable too for long period.

I think its a great weekend car.

 

I use my 111R (which has pretty much the same performance as the VXT) as a daily driver and live with it quite happily. It is a bit of a pain getting in and out of with the roof on, and the space between passenger and driver seats is small, but for sheer thrills, whilst still having the ability to start up every day and get you to work I don't think you can beat either car.

The rarity value (in my neck of the woods anyway) is a real boost too. I love having a car that people don't see every day.

 

Contemplated one before i bought my second S. For me the inconvenience wasn't offset by superior performance. 4.6 to 60 sounds fantastic, but it never felt anywhere near that fast.

I was really dissapointed

 

The last of them have to be registered by the end of this year otherwise they can't be sold, so might be best to wait around for a bit.

 

These beasts are on my list.

Clarkson bloody loved it!
