AMV8 is a great car. Lots of fun to drive and always elicits lots of ooohs and aaahs. I have the sports shift version and it can be a little jerky when the car is cold, but it smooths out after a couple of minutes.
As far as reliability goes, it has been good so far. One issue with bubbling leather on the dash due to defective adhesive and a squeaking sound that was due to a misadjusted hand break. The car also has a couple of rattles that come and go, but that's a British car for you.
Oh yeah, and nothing beats the sound of the V8 in that car
