Picked up the M3 yesterday and had a bit of a blast home. It was so nice to drive a car with a surplus of power rather than the 1.25 Fiesta i'd been driving round in.

Fingers crossed the gearbox problem is solved once and for all.

Ouch. It must feel fantastic now, after the Ford.

I don't profess to understand exactly what went wrong, the original issue was a broken spring, that was fixed but in doing so other problems were introduced which took months to locate and sort.

It was a giant balls up but it's all behind me now. Got a big easter trip to see the folks and in-laws which should put 500 miles on the clock, can't wait.
