What do I like about my '8?
The shock and surprise that it gives to anyone who sits in the passenger seat, who doesn't mind me driving it enthusiastically.
It's ability on the roads, and on the track. Did Croft a couple of years back, and shocked the cr@p out of some C2's (it's a very twisty track) who really didn't expect it to be quite so good around the corners
The power, although I want more, and the delivery of that power.
Timelessness. It's design means that it looks as good today, as it did when it was first produced. IMO, the pre-facelift has dated slightly worse, but that's down only to the design of the front lights.
The fact that you can feel better once you've had a long trip than before you got in!! I had to drive to Liverpool a few years ago, from Bath, with an ETA of 9am in Liverpool!! Felt awful when I got in, but refreshed when I got out......bizarre
There's loads I could say, and I'll probably add to this list when I've got more time
