Paul,

The amount of times I have been tempted by the GT3 is unbelievable. It is the reliability issues that got me + they don't make em new anymore so no chance to get one with a decent warranty FWIW.

Chipping them is apparently very easy also.

It's the Cerb that is really tempting me as it's got some token rear seats so we could all go for a run out

The S2000 is quite a selfish car for a family man like me
