Is Safety a reason to move on?

[Peter Golledge]

I second the "keep it as a spare".  Put a battery tender on it, insure for
whatever the minimum your place allows and have fun when you need it. :-)
My workmates and I call this RAIC "Redundant Array (of) Inexpensive Cars"
works well but can get messy when you end up with 3 Audis and they all
decide to barf at the same time.

Having said that I'm probably going to give away my 200TQA as I haven't the
room and it needs a bunch of work. Anyone want to buy a set of Type44 Euro
lights that come with a car attached? ;-)

Cheers

Opinions we gots.

Sadly, just about any car with 235K on it is worth ... not much.
If you have the space, keep the 200TQ and get the "safe" car. Then
use the 200 for runs to the lumber yard, track days, autocrossing,
etc. And when the new car is in for service, you have a backup.
