  1. I'm guessing 502 bhp at the fly. Can't see his sig on mobile Jealous as he has more than you Hahaha Edit .........did
  2. Ooofff sorry man ! Were you not selling this a few months back , saw an add for it. Hope you get it sorted with minimal hassle .
  3. For me it's just the right car at this moment in my life ! Yes there are better , faster , slower , cheaper cars out there but for my budget and needs it fits the bill and I hope I have some fun in it Being delivered tomorrow ! At last Can't wait ........ ...........to get the exhaust mod done , spacers fitted and other bits on it
  4. Leaving it with Mark for the week of 13th March as I'm going over to Europe for the week for research trip for our June trip Ah yes I remember you saying now . Awesome
  5. Where is Colin ? Are you a y fronts guy or boxers?
  6. Why did you buy a soft top Porsche when everyone knows the coupes are better ?
  7. No neither am I really ! But it ticked pretty much all the boxs and does everything pretty well , so it suits me at the moment !
  8. Is that like saying the a 370 "isnt really any quicker" than a 350, especially for twice the price? There would be nothing in it on the road between a HR 50 and 70 ...... And that's why I chose another 50 over the 70 when I was looking . The interior is nicer though on the 70's and the looks are a matter of taste on either
  9. Was your mate trying to sell you another 370 at the time? Nice whip BB, I do like them in white I have to say. Any plans for more noise/brakes/carbon? See above Trying not to go crazy with it ! But will end up getting a carbon M sport rear spoiler , as they look so good
  10. Yes already booked in for the 2 or 2.5 exhaust mod Been on cutters for a while , as i know chris and carl from there , really helpful guys and full of knowledge . But yes ill be sticking round here ( sorry folks !) as its like a little family with the odd chav who turns up every now and then ! I have heard the brakes are the week point and when the pads are done i may well upgrade to stoptech bbk .... Or as you say better pads for the cheaper option . Has new mpss on all round from previous owner And will be booking jack royal for a flat bottom alcantara steering wheel , along with some dash parts that ill get covered with a nice little '///M3 ' embroidered on ti them ..... Ordered spacers , matt black grills , side and bonnet vents already !
  11. As in your zed with the charger on ? I would have thought your zed would pull on the m3 quite a bit ! But in standard form the m trumps the 70 in pretty much every aspect , but then it should its alot more money! Ess supercharger on order ..... 7k fitted and mapped 600 bhp , hahaha
  12. Did it really not feel that much quicker? I genuinely thought it would be quite a significant difference over the 370? You have to absolutely ring it to get it to go fast ..... Peak power at 8300 rpm . I had a blast with a manual one a few years ago in my standard HR 50 ..... It spanked me , and the 70's are no faster than the HR 50 as we all know . It's not night and day faster , it's just so well set up you can use the 420 bhp pretty much all the time as the chassis handles it .
  13. Lighter wheels , lower ride height , race mode on the gear shift speed ( so so quick ) and some other damping settings on the shocks . About 3.5 option when new . This car was over 60k under 3 years ago !!
  14. It's the spec I wanted ..... As it's far far better with the comp pack than a standard m3 .
  15. Ya always new I would get mixed opinions on it but I love it ! Yes it's not so individual as my 50 was and to be honest my zed was probably quicker . But the quality is a huge leap up ... And it's by far quicker than a standard 50/70 imo . Yes they are pricey but should only depreciate they same as any other car and when I sell I know it will be worth a bit still . Is it worth double what a nice 50/70 costs, Honestly ...... No . But if that's the price they are and I wanted to get into one , then that's what I had to pay ! Anyway , thanks for everyone's input and I'll be sure to keep you posted on it and what i have planned for it
  16. Ya sorry , forgot to take any good ones really . I'll get some better ones when it's at my house
  17. Well bought this today ! Not to everyone's taste I know but a very very nice car , that's an absolute joy to drive sedately and crazy when you want it to be ... Very impressed with the dtc system . I'll be getting it in a couple weeks , as a wheel needs a refurb and some other bits and bobs bring sorted . Really happy to find a clean , 1 owner m3 , the last they made on a 13 plate and with the competition package on it . Full review soon
  18. But you can when you go to get in and out every time ! Check that birds one out doc .... Been mapped by litchfields , just had a chat with them about it .
  19. Birds actually have a couple of 1 series for sale with what doc has mentioned already done ..... Just not sure I could put up with the looks ..... Yes the m3 is a tad dull but compared to a 1 series it's a whole lot better imo .
  20. Have looked at the xkr I think it is ......... Loads of car for the money , but it's as you say a tad old man-ish for me at my tender age
  21. Was the ones your mates didn't get on with manual or dct Nic?
