273 vs 318 [in England!]

Thanks for your replies everyone. Seems the 69 273 is favourite- my gut feeling as well. Nice to know they can be tuned if you have the cash.

The cars are being shipped as we speak- I wouldn't consider buying without a drive.

[I've only recently considered the A-bodies- In England our garages are smaller, so the smaller size US cars are in more demand.However, things like early Mustangs and even Falcons are over priced these days, so out of my range. People have jumped on the bandwagon here with those, so its nice to find another stylish smaller car that has a keen following, that people rate highly!]

Cheers,

no doubt I'll be on again,

Nick
