A friend of mine was really in love the E type. Like many newbies he jumped on a 12 cylinder version first because it was extra cool. He quickly realized it was a very unreliable car, and he could not drive it more than a few miles before something broke, or need to be adjusted again.
He traded up to a later model 6 cylinder car that the PO had spent a fortune on to get it more reliable. My friend would only drive it to a car show, or an a pretty weekend day. He was astonished when I told him I have driven my 911 to 40 different states, and plan to drive to 48 and maybe even 49 states.
E types are very pretty but it is like have a super model on your concrete job construction site, all the guys will stop to look, but the supermodel will not be a bit of help with the hard work.
