I read the comparison between Datsun 240Z and Triumph TR6 (December) with interest, because it reminded me of a ʻGiant Testʼ in CAR in the early ʼ70s. That also included the Z, plus a Triumph Stag and a Reliant Scimitar GTE, with the latter coming out on top.
Partly on the strength of that, I bought an SE5 with overdrive and a Webasto sunroof. This was my first ʻrealʼ car and it was wonderful. Not without a few foibles, but it looked fabulous, took four in reasonable comfort, went very rapidly and was quite economical. It was also versatile, and could take ample holiday luggage.
