  • Summary

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What does this car say about you?

    In my eyes the cars a small compromise ie I was adamant I was going to buy an e46 m3 but after searching for many months it was obvious that good specimens were few and far however if you can live with 2 seats this car is as good performance wise and cheaper to run and better looking 31 mpg £200 fully comp ins and a lot rarer.

    The kids love it , friends like the shape and the neighbours think I'm going through a mid life crisis.
