LOL.

The Megane will do it all.
A high roof line means you can easily stand in it (out of rain) to affix chair and kid.

But, the S2K is becoming a Chav chariot so it is a good time to exit.

No, I have the family hatch.
The one that does 9/10ths of what the .R does, but has rear seats and the same engine/tranny/diff etc.

Remember this? >

And also Rockingham - leading the R26Rs around in precession even on road tyres?
Oh yes - and they are about 7k cheaper

Now - this M3 thing....
Karen is really up for it. It was her that always wanted the S2000 in the first place.
But as she now agrees, we got one and had fun with it but now time to move along.
So I'm in the process of getting the bootlid swapped for one without holes for the wing.
The original fronts are back on but all the KWv3 and ARB etc will all go with the car.
Might pay to wait out a bit for a summer price I guess
