I think for those of us who are still working and doing a lot of miles there is a big difference between the requirements for a car that is used for work and a car that is used for fun.

Like Alistair, I can see my next work car being electric when the lease on the Range Rover runs out. My requirements for the work car are that it needs to be quiet, good ride comfort, good quality seats and visibility with 4 doors and good luggage carrying capacity. I am now used to heated seats and steering wheel, sat nav, good quality hifi, on board wifi hotspot and on long journeys I do use the massage function on the seats.
From my standpoint I am impressed with Techy gadgets on my work car as it makes my working life a lot easier and less tiring.

My requirements for a car for fun are the polar opposite - V8 noise and fresh air. My Cobra doesn't even have a heater let alone a working roof of any sort. Now I have sold the M3W my plan is to buy a plus 8 as the practical compliment to the Cobra as it will have a (leaking) roof and a heater.
