makes the z43.0 coupe more appealing - BMW have been very smart in engineering their 3.0 to be just under 226 and also bloody quick. The s2k parking permit , tax, and now congestion charging has doubled in the last year but the b'mer just scrapes through without the heavy increases.
That reminds me - sweepstake on how badly hot we get on the 12th?..
sorry i shouldnt moan - i do love the s2k!
