Honestly I've not . I didn't with the Z3M coupe either. Anything can go wrong but you only live once!

I think about things too much, think that's my problem really - maybe sensible though when looking at supercars!

I have spotted it yeah, looks good apart from its not actually an "S"!!

[indy]

yeah plenty of people add the S, thinking it makes it a real turbo S

dumbasses!

just ends up making the car look really crap.

funny how they used the car, thats been for sale for about 12 months now!

wonder what is wrong with that.

i think its now priced at how much the garage paid for it, i remember it being privately sold for around £18-20k. probably realised high milers dont make a profit (unless bought for 15k?)

it has dropped a few k since original advert was put up.

It an auto or tiptronic shite, thats it's problem, I drove on at the ring last year and it wasn't very good compared to the manuals I drove the same day.

Mines back in the garage Monday... Couple of niggles will keep you posted 100% sure will be ok. Dealer already has courtesy car for me....

Tip is ok... Honest... But as a WE car manual will only do I'm sure. To be quick..... Really quick in every day driving an auto is the only way. I'm 200% faster in my 996tt than the Mcoupe and I drive like a girl . . .

Chatting to mate with DCT M3 and he won't go back either ...... This is daily driver conversation only ..... WE car manual still.... Halfway house go auto ,, they have a manual mode !!!! (sort of)

What kind of niggles are you having with it Dave?
