This is the latest addition to the stable...

Ferrari wker status has been achieved but I take back anything I ever said about Ferrari's. This car is mind boggling, so much feedback through the steering and chassis, it's so precise and you need to be on the ball with the fast steering rack, as expected it's mega quick, the brakes are great, the computer systems are so advanced, the 9000rpm limiter is just music to my ears, active aero above 105mph, it also looks incredible. I've never been so impressed by what a car could do, constant big grin stuff, also whack it in wet mode and auto and the suspension and exhaust go all civilised and it's actually smoother and quieter than the Q7 in comfort mode. What a machine!!!! I fking love it

That is absolutely superb! Congratulations & enjoy.

Off to wonder how I could finance one of these...

Hi all, long term lurker from Alford. Thought I would stick up some pics of the fleet. The 530d pic is one I found online, not the actual car as I don't think I've ever taken a pic of it!

530d (remapped)
550 Maranello
Z4 3.0si
Mini JCW, tuned to 230bhp, coils, buckets etc etc

Picked this up in August. 335i Msport 09 plate with 42,000 miles Sat Nav etc. Love the car, the performance and the noise when it at full chat is brilliant. Just deciding whether to chip it or not now.

It's based on MK Indy R chassis

Got a 1300 Suzuki hayabusa engine Gen1

The Scottish kit car center build their own version of it now and this is nearing completion in their garage near North Berwick

Seeing as the values have gone up a bit, it wouldn't harm to spend a little on it, bigger whipple is going on to boost power from 720 to 800. biglaugh

Because at 720 I'm sure it was a little light on horsepower! haha

At least he won't need to be dropping down to 2nd gear for overtaking now it has some accessible torque!....

Well finally decided to get another bmw after my last one was wrote off due to the other driver pulling out from a blind junction and their inability to see cars at night with their headlights on frown . Its a 320 Ci with 107k miles, full mot, all the toys for the pricely sum of £1600 biggrin . Only issue is theres some small dents in the passenger side rear quarter (as seen in pics) which is nothing imo for a car of this age.





Will get more pics up once ive given it a proper clean.

An excellent choice if I may say!

Here is mine. Picked it up on Saturday and so far I'm absolutely loving it. The colour has to be seen in the metal to be appreciated.
