Re: Are any replicas feasible as daily drivers?

It certainely depends on where you live. It is -10f below zero here in the northeast U.S. with the roads thickly coated in salt. Even the SUV drivers are complaining that they cannot see over the snow banks. That takes a lot of the daily out of daily driver. But if you live in say Hawaii or Arizona (Gordon) your potential daily driver days goes way up. Even my 69 mini spends a good amount of time sleeping soundly between November and April. When I had a FFR Cobra replica I drove it as much as posible the first year and only put on 4,000 miles.
