Default Back in something a little quicker

Sold my s2000 last year and bought another...decided i wanted something a bit different so sold that too and went E46 m3. Went to Germany, drove the ring, got it exactly how i wanted and then foolishly sold it! (always the way!)

Looked at getting back into an s2000 but good ones seemed few and far between.













Anyway...with that sold i was struggling with what to go to. looked at all sorts but kept going back to the E46 m3. was such a good all round car. So...went one better..



It's a missile! and revvy too! looking at doing the usual bits and bobs and keeping it clean and enjoying it.
Just thought i'd pop back up on the forum anyway, hope to see a few of you soon

Happy days Macky! I intend on making some more in the future for anyone interested

They are impressive all round cars. I think 10s 0-100 which is quick and very benign balance make it easy to oversteer

I hankered after a red un when i bought.. And a white un like Winny's. Then purchased a grey un haha

Took it in for a quote on some paint on Sat so we'll see how that turns out, bumper, bonnet, pass door where some tool dinged it

I really like these Lee although I have never been in one

Next time you are around a passenger ride would be good
