If you plan on running the car without MOT and tax, then you need to factor in the cost of a trailer / towing license (new rules on towing), and of course will need a car suitable to tow. You can run on track with no insurance, but if you crash it then it's your loss. You can get track cover per...

As said, buy the nicest / mechanically sound car in your price bracket. If it's a track car cup vs non-cup becomes a mute point, especially if it's being weight stripped, coilovers etc. Welcome along! Quite a few track cars in here :)

Lovely, hope it goes to a good home!

Looks lovely! Enjoy bud!

I'd be up for it, needs to not be a Sunday night though! Mrs Cub doesn't allow me out to play on Sundays! 😂

I like it, and I'm not really a fan of the 200t! Looked to be going well :)

I believe it is! At least that's what he tells me...

Cheers bud, that's why I'm pushing for it to be sorted in warranty. Once it's mine, I'll be having to sort it myself! Let's hope they replace the unit under warranty, as other than that, it seems in great condition. :)

Yeah. That sounds like the route of choice. I'll get him to ring them.

Right, mixed bag last night. It drove lovely. Smooth, refined and good power. Just what we want and the wife loves it. However, Sat Nav started playing up. As in it froze / radio stopped playing. Go over a bump and it starts again. Heavy whirring sound from the DVD drive. After some googling it...

Just seen your text bud, sadly, they're bigger than I'd like and still run flat jobbies.... Cheers though :)

I've already text him to say we'll definitely have it. And I won't be selling it on...not until it has moon miles and to a non-CSER. I don't like the risk of things going wrong with someone I know...

Cleaned. The clean unveiled it has been keyed down one panel. Nothing a polish can't sort though @Scrooge :) x

But bargain...something you're unfamiliar with :)

M5...brand new...luurvvelly

Ha Ha! Neighbours. We get on really well with. :)

When I say cheap, to put some context to it, it's mine (post service) for £3.2k.... Hence me thinking it's a no brainer really :smile:

Good progress being made. Bilsteins were a good shout! I love mine, been a perfect road / track balance!

Love the title 'Behold the....' Cracks me up for some reason :) Enjoy clio ownership chap!

Top man. X

Fair point. Sarah would kill me though. Non-run flats?

Ha. Buy it off me if it breaks?

FLOL! I quite like them. They will be swapped next year though when the tyres need doing, largely because I don't want 18 inch run flats which are pricey.

Ps. Any major problems I should know of? It's a 55 plate, so n52 engine. Advice gratefully received :)

So, an update to this. I'm testing this out over the Christmas break, with a view to buying it in Jan after it's been serviced at a BMW main dealer. It has FBMWSH and extended warranty from the dealer (although that is non-transferable, hence it getting serviced by the old owner in Jan). 103k...

Supercharged 172 - 103k

Nice buy! Looks great :) Other than the engine bay tidy, any plans for it?

Welcome along! Sounds like this will be a fun project :smile:

This car is annoying me now! Lol! It didn't have any signs of wear to the leads / wiring etc, but I haven't had a great look at it as we were working on it on the drive as the garage is busy. Swapped the injectors and lambda, as per the RS Tuner codes, and it actually ran really well for 10...

Looks good. Standard wheels freshen it up no end!
