Default Which one to keep

Following on from my bangernomics thread, I'm now left with a decision to make about which car to insure as my daily and which to sell. Mx-5 sold, TT is on a limited mileage policy and I need to put either the ZT or BMW on the road to use through the winter.
Both are 2.0 diesels, ZT-T is an auto, 320 is a 6 SPD manual with a lovely light clutch. Both full leather, though ZT has cruise. My ZT is on 180k miles, the 320 is on 94k, both are very reliable and passed last Mots with ease. I'd say the 320 is in better condition though the arches are all starting to scab, common on these but nothing structural like a jacking point. ZT is more comfortable but the 320 a better drive, feels smaller and lighter(don't know if it is) with better brakes. I guess they are both worth between 500 and a grand so nothing to choose there. Although I don't use it a lot the estate space is useful, the BMW's seats don't even fold .

I expect you'll all say keep the ZT, being on this forum but I appreciate any comments you have. Thanks
