Lovely shape on this, getting fiesta and focus vibes and 200bhp into the bargain.

A friend has a Ceed GT. 210bhp or so, sounds quite nice and interior is decent enough tbf.

These are currently on my shortlist. The only thing that's frustrating is that they're more expensive to run (tax etc) and slower than a Fiesta ST

Do kind of think they look better though, and like that they're rare. Missus said she'd be annoyed if I got one though seeing as though I previously sold hers to buy the family bus 🙈

An old boy (about 80 year old) up the road from me has this Technoviolet M240i

It has saddle brown (I think) seats

I still can’t get over how much better looking the m240i is than the m2. It looks great in that colour 👌.

Great is pushing it a bit.

It looks better than an M2, let’s just leave it at that 😜

Absolutely this. Though... seen a few new M2 in the flesh now and they certainly have road presence (I'm not mistaking that for actually looking good)

This one on PistonHeads is a good example:

Don’t think any of the current BMW’s could be called good looking. The F87 M2 and F90 5 series were probably the last decent looking ones for me.

Poopensharten · 2024-10-05T09:52:34+0100

I’ve said it before, but the M2 CS is where the smart money is.

Spotted a Mk5 Zetec S in the wild, no photographs of the actual car as i was kicking the S1’s c**t in going by it😂

Took me back, used to love coming across them in the VTS/GTi back in the day!

Poopensharten · 2024-10-05T16:08:35+0100

Seen this Cayman on i think 997 wheels?

Also clocked this ropey b*****d!

And an even ropier b*****d, very nearly bought an ST170 in imperial blue..

ForceIndia · 2024-10-05T17:16:50+0100

Nostalgic, but really f**king ugly.

MarkCup · 2024-10-05T17:19:55+0100

This was beyond awesome

Also features double Robs and a sliver of Luke 🤣

Saw this last weekend at a local car show. Was only a 525 but looked lovely.

My ex had one of those as her second ever car. Such a fantastic chassis, just needed more power and it would have been brilliant. You never see them these days, I bet the tin worm ate the majority of them

That crossed my mind, this one looked immaculate.

NGL, after a couple of pints I read that as 'HANK'

That's probably better if I'm honest.

Reminds me of racing up and down the local dual carriageways when we all had Starlet GT's, Fiesta Zetec S' and VTR's,VTS' and GTI's. God I miss those days.

Preach it brother - i’ve had a million motors since those days, and the VTS/GTi’s are the ones that are core memories. I can feel a project coming on for sure.

Took my mate to pick up a 24k mile minter a few months ago, he had one as his first car and loved it.
