A bit more sideways action here as I try to stay with a stage 2 (450bhp) ZF8, and then keep ahead of another with Bilsteins and brake upgrades aplenty.
That's just added hours and hours and hours to my editing workload. Thanks. I'd have filmed accordingly if you'd said that up front.
Where is the Mic located on the track vids? Sounds awesome.
Looks like you could brake alot later and harder on the trackday vids. Other than that, all top notch!
Bold statement.
Not even that Impreza....
Does it tick the 'appearance' box though? Genuine question. The 116d lolz but what do you make of it Vs the Focus RS for image?
Will it be a future classic? Or is it just a current fit your requirements and in 10 years you might think otherwise?
Could you better it with upgrades to take your attraction to the next level? Surely stock is just average and you don't feel you're missing out on any upgrade?
Not doubting, just devils advocate. Offering video ideas also foc. Lol.
These sound mint with a decat downpipe and a scorpion system...Could you better it with upgrades to take your attraction to the next level? Surely stock is just average and you don't feel you're missing out on any upgrade?

Balls. When I originally saw this I downloaded it with the intention of using it in my latest video re. mods, but it went live today and I completley forgot! Ah well, I'll sneak it into another one at some point.
So, I've been in this thing for two years now...and still have zero desire to change it for anything else.
It's not special, the only standout thing about it really is the B58 engine and that's a masterpiece, but the rest of the package is just run of the mill 1 series.
What I have realised recently, what keeps me happy in it more than anything else, is just one simple thing. Rear wheel drive (and the LSD).
That's what I really love, and it comes packaged in a car that's the right size for me and what I want a car for.
Would I like an M2? Could I live with one? 100% yes on both counts, it'll most likely address all the small 'complaints' I have. But do I want to drop the thick end of £15k-£20k for that privilege?
You know the answer to that [emoji23]
Yeah I’m 2 years in mine and really happy with it as well.
The wife wants to give up work possibly. And if she does we will be getting rid of her car (Renault Grand Scienic for childminding duties). To be honest that might prompt me to trade in the m140. We trend to use the Renault for family duties because it’s got way more room inside. 2 little girls and car seats and all their stuff and you soon realise that a 1 series is a small car and not that practical with the RWD layout.
Yeah, that would be a bit of a struggle. We have a C-Max for domestic duties, my cars serving that purpose have always been secondary thankfully.
Even with older girls (17 + 12) and so much less stuff to worry about, living with just my 1 series would be a massive PITA.
Thankfully the automatic rev-matching's really good, so I wouldn't have to sit in a corner rocking back and forth every time Sarah drove it.

People are so weird about the auto/manual thing. I know a few people (mainly women, it has to be said), who would refuse to drive an automatic car, citing that, "They don't know how", even though it's easier. My missus on the other hand, who has spent most of her life in the Middle East and North America can't comprehend the idea of a manual car.
