At the moment i have a ClioSport 200 (thats in the classifieds) I bought it as a cheap stop gap car as i was always gonna get a better car this year. Business has been kind this year so decided to splash out a bit.

Unfortunately my BM will be faster wink

I never liked sunroofs, they are 80's, add weight, ruin lines, lose headroom

Mine is waiting at the docks in Holland. Also Guards Red - great choice. I have a choice of waiting until September for the 62 plate or taking it 6 or 7 weeks earlier and stuff the wait!!!

Thats partly why i bought the plate as to resist the temptation. My car was in for a July build but that has been put back to August now as there is a month delay on the Sports design kit

Then you are a smarter and stronger man than I 'cos I know just what I'm gonna end up doing if the dealer calls me midweek to ask would sir like his new car. And so does Mrs BnB. She gives me a condescending grin (which just yells "weak-minded fool") every time the subject comes up.

Yes, and its still not as clean as the normal roof and looks shocking when open. Its only money wink GT3's are gonna be 120k with options, plus i get the rear seats for the kids and a car thats as good as last years GT's

As good at last years GT,s mmmm depends what you want from a car I guess.

Very very nice daily runner to work though with outstanding performance.

I would have been tempted to go the whole hog and get the 430bhp power pack.
