The .:R32's Replacement.

[Anth172]

Afternoon,

I decided to part with my R32 after 2.5 years of ownership on Saturday, its been a great car and will miss it, especially the sound of the milltek, just thought id put up a few quick photos of it and its replacement.

New motor, 54plate M3, 39k miles.

Cheers:approve:

lol, they were on the car when I picked it up only had it a few days, its got two brand new bridgestones on the rear, the falkens have still got decent tread so will see them out then replace for better rubber.

Private Plate to go on
Eibach springs in time.

Dont worry mate, im not into making it look like a CSL look alike, id have to own the real deal.

Cheers tho

How you finding the drive from the R? My MK4 has just been sold and I may be looking at one of these soon?

 

[Bodge!]

Dont see the fascination with M3's myself.

R32 was nice

R32 was great fun, but the M3 eclipses it in terms of performance, steering and throttle are alot more responsive, straight line power/speed is a league ahead, generally it feels alot more fun to drive.

R32 was nice

each to their own mate, had the R32 nearly 2.5yrs was time for a change:approve:

 

[clio007]

I heard MPG wise they are better too?

 

[hughesclio]

nice car, not a fan of the red leather though. and there is nothing wrong with csl rims as long as there genuine and not some cheapo copies.

clearly you have never driven one:S

cheers, originally wanted black leather, red was second choice but this cropped up with decent mileage and I actually really like it against the silver/grey. Not having a pop at CSL rims mate they are lovely, just personally I like the 19's already on the car so not in the market to change.

sorry mate jusr read back what i wrote and it seems a bit abrupt, i like the original m3 wheels when there in good condition but not very many are well looked after
i was lucky that mine came with the genuine csl wheels.
you will love the m3 there a amazing alround machine

 

[.GAZ.]

Both cars are minted!

 

[Olliec]

M3 looks great bud. What made you go for SMG over a manual? R32 is wicked!

 

[danjf]

both awesome, prefer the r32 but tbh would have both anyday!!

cheers m8, just fancied trying the SMG for something different, havent had the chance to drive it much yet as I work away, glad I went for it though, like having the choice of using either the paddles on the wheel or the sequential shift.

 

[ben_p]

SMG is uber cool, some days I wish mine had it, then others I love the whole clutch and manual thing.

100 man points for paddles though!

Just spent 40 hours detailing mine, havent driven it for a week! Will get the pics up tomorrow!
