He didn't find the E36 M3 disappointing. It was quite easy to understand. wink

And the stupid, wooden, shiny steering wheel!!

I just don't get why anyone would want one of those, but so many Mercs have them.

So much nicer on the 18s as well, in both terms of looks and the way it handles.

So after a visit here today, currently obsessing over this...



Caterham 620r, absolutely perfect weekend/track toy.

Beautiful, and an incredible spec. The cost for replacing the brakes will be tremendous but they'll give serious stopping power to this tank. No wonder many used buyers swap them out for conventional brakes. I uses to have an A8 and I loved it, so I'll always have a soft spot for these big Audis barges.
What's the problem with the ceramic brakes?
