They did put rather a lot more after that though!! Receipts are a good idea imho. Perhaps you should sticky this Luke, plenty of numpties on here these days lol

Love Welsh roads, like a much bigger version of West Cornwall!! Have done up to the Elan Valley a few times (was there 15/16 March actually), not gone further north as of yet though ...

More than likely - at the end of the day, if you were given the choice of a Fiesta ST or M135i for the same £250 a month...

Unique to the model, front bumper is slightly different as well (no front fog lights), then grey mirrors, different wheels & blue calipers, so they do look a little different if you look close enough. They can have parking sensors, but i didnt bother, once i cant see the reflection of the...

And once thats gone, i have 3 more lol

lol, yeah, a shed is pretty much all we can afford in Weybridge .... But no, one of the couples downstairs let me use their space for the M135i as the mini is currently in mine. Much better actually as its covered & not under a sodding tree that drops leaves/branches/bird-nests all the time...

Drove both & whilst i found the autobox to be very good, if i wanted an auto i would have bought a 7 series lol. Car is now pretty much run in, so have been able to explore the upper limits of the rev limit. Needless to say, planting your foot in 2nd at 3k rpm through to 7k, then keeping it in...

Looks great, knew you'd buy that one when you linked it!

According to his youtube profile it is!!: http://www.youtube.com/user/SpaceCowboyM135/about

I have no space to keep it at the moment, so it has to find a new owner. http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/mini/cooper-s-works/mini-mini-cooper-s-jcw-gp-------------2006/2193325?isexperiment=true Don't really want to take a part-ex, but will take a sheddy clio to break if it...

FWIW, the suspension looks a lot lower than standard! They always get quite a lot of negative camber on the rear without adjustable rear control arms.

:o They are rather lovely ... ST will look amazing on them!!

Yup. Turinis suit pretty much everything lol!!

Look at the location. Personally, id go for the Sachs. Ive had 3 x Trophy's, the Recaros got sold (they're sh1t), but the Sachs stayed.

Absolutely love this car!! Reminds me of being 21 again & hooning round in my 'nana ...

Couple of quick snaps of the GP in its natural habitat. The Brecons in Wales, filthy dirty & covered in brake dust. Hoon time :race: Its also up for sale now if anyone else wants to enjoy it - minus Speedlines/JCW steering wheel which are staying for the blue one. Link to advert...

Deal seems ok to me, would rather have the saxo, but money talks really. Especially if you need it more than a spaffy car

Great cars!!!! And now cheap as chips lol: http://www.gateway2lease.com/z_ford_fiesta_1.6ecoboostst-23dr_15159_leasing.php#.UyH5o-0gHCT

You'll like Houx Annex, it reminds me of this on Friday/Sunday night lol ...

Will you be in Houx with all the other TVR owners?

Something along those lines Jon!! So its not like its the 1st time this has happened. Personally, i think ///M died when ITB's where phased out, purely as the M3/M4/M5 will imho drive just like the M135i, just with more power. What if they want a manual gearbox ;) I dont mind. Although it...

Not sure to be honest, would imagine there's something somewhere as it opens/closes on start up/sport mode etc. I'm driving it fairly sensibly, have explored a little over 4k now, but not repeatedly. I blame Budgie entirely. Various points, that ill try to cover in turn. Looks wise, i...

I remember seeing that thing in Max Power, Fast Car or Revs im sure!! Did it also have 17" league tantrums & a different front bumper before going all out on the flippy stuff & chromes?

I saw a white one in my car park yesterday. Ollie82 had just collected it & driven it there though ;) Lovely, really really nice in fact ... Id still have blue though i think!

All the fancy 'greener' technology. Explanation: http://www.bmw.co.uk/en_GB/topics/discover-bmw/efficientdynamics/technologies.html Basically brake regeneration (charges the battery iirc), electric steering, start/stop, optimum gear shift indicator, etc etc to help save fuel.

The one with the double garage is Sarah's parents place. Other is our flat.

Yeah, i did consider Pro Nav (& Bus Nav), but realistically i got in the car yesterday, plonked my Kenu airframe in the drivers side air vent and loaded up Navfree to get to the M4, then turned it off again. I simply couldnt justify it lol. The standard system still pulls through all the info...

See i love the way it looks, reminds me of the Z3M breadvan (the shoe), especially in Estoril blue :o Like the GP, its a lot better in real life than pictures i think. Mini isnt actually for sale yet, i'll get round to it at some point lol. Thanks!! To be honest, ive had soo many years of...

So yesterday was the day, the day I got my first brand new car. Whoop whoop!!! Jumped on the train at Walton, got to Basingstoke, changed for Reading, then onto Bristol Parkway (booked as one ticket it would have been £62, but as three separate ones, £28 – WTF?!), then a quick taxi ride (in an...

Ive got one of those as well for my bi-annual clean. I tend to go to the local jet wash 1st to get most of the crud off before taking it home & 'detailing it'.
