Default C70 Convertible as weekend car

Hi,

Dont know much about these , other than i have spotted a T5 and that perked my interest. Essentially i am looking for capable convertible weekend car, initially looking at E3/46s and the like (6 cyl obviously) as was thinking of the possibility of a multi use family/track/drift tool - although i have a modest budget of 1.5k so options are thin on the ground...

240 bhp / 5 cylinder / turbo is what got me interested - i understand they arent a massively capable drivers car (wallowy/scuttle shake) and they havent particularly aged that well -- however i am prepared to look past that for some 5 cyl turbo warble.

My opinion is currently based on a brief internet search - would like to hear from current owners what they are really like.

thanks
