2 blue 1*2s on the a19, one north bound, one south bound... couldve been the same one doing laps
UR 200 on the m62 going past that bit with the house in the middle
and a LY R27 on the m6 at 1:30
any takers?
It's weird, I was thinking a similar thing the past couple of days;
When I see beamers etc getting up my arse and flying past me on the motorway with their 318 powah I can't help but think, if I was to buy one, I'd wait until I had the money to buy a decent 3.0l with all the mod cons.
If I...
I think Rob is talking about enthusiasts who know what they're buying rather than average joe walking into a dealer saying 'i want that car, the £16k model... £1k!? Ooh no thanks, that's too much for something I won't use'
If I were to buy a new car I'd go apeshit on the option list like...

People interested in cars get 'I drive a yellow clio 197/ 197 (get either depending on how into cars they are)

Tbh, drive them Both and see which you prefer.
An r27 will be easier to find in hero spec than a 200
I think you want ly do this comment is null lol; the only real factor id see which warrents an extra £3k would be if you want alien green or storm grey.

Non sport gt spoiler Not awesome
Recaros are a must tbh...
If you buy second hand, get one with recaros. It'll hold the value...
The aero kit is a must have IMO, wasn't keen on the splitter at first but now I love it. I just need the skirts and spoiler now :)
Electric heated folding Mirrors (on the mirror adjust knob therell be a dot on the bottom to spin the knob round to which will fold them in)
Xenons with cornering...
I was in the same position as you, ended up with the r27 for insurance lol
My spec had to be
Ly
recaros
cup chassis
I figured I'd look for r27s as you could only get ly in that spec an itd come standard with recaros and cup chassis ( they introduced the cup chassis with the r27 so there's a...
