Its a good point Steve, but if I was buying one and had owned a 14 yr old '8 I would be expecting a lot! Owning a D2 does indeed spoil you and its only after owing one for a while and looking at other cars that you really appreciate some of the quality stuff when you see what other "up-market" cars come with.
As, for "picky" I was buying a 2nd hand LR Freelander for Mrs D last year and the comment at the dealers was "we have never had someone come down in overalls with a torch and want to inspect the underside/suspension and bodywork". Well, I was about to give them a wallet full of money and there wasnt anything wrong with my money so there had better be nothing wrong with the car.
