That 997 is just about the perfect spec.

Gloss black wheels aside, yes.

968 is a great car. I've driven a well fettled Sport a few times and love it, but I don't think I'd have one instead of a 996. I've not driven an Esprit, it's something that I'd like to have a drive of at some point, but it's not as usable as a 996 due to the lack of rear seats. M3 is nice, but doesn't feel special really.

Pretty much my thoughts too

Esprits are fabulous to drive and feel very much of an event/supercar on the road but therein lies the weakness of such a car and its useability.

Anyhoo, my thoughts are not straying much further for real worlds thrills than;

Cinquecento Sporting with a few subtle tweaks ie

Slightly lowered
S/steel exhaust
Induction kit

Agreed, that's why I was doing man maths on it

Ever driven a Twingo 133? If not, try one. They're a real laugh to drive, great handling, probably one of the most fun cars I've ever had/driven

[L100NYY]

Driven most other RenaultSport products but not a Twingo 133, Lotus owning chum had one and really rated it but tbh it doesn't tug at my heartstrings like a Cinquecento Sporting does.

I used to sell Cinq (and Seiecento Sportings) so have a real soft spot for them.

Nice set of silver BBS’s would fix that.

Not sure how true it is, the trailer had a rear numberplate from a '65 plate Defender .

Apparently to do with the Silverstone Classic preview.

Great little cars

[Fast Bug]

A good Lupo GTI is great fun, that doesn't look like a good one to me.

HC takes us on a journey of the best M3s, starting with the e30

Just wibble central isn't it?! An E30 Sport Evo has long been on my 'list' and that video has certainly affirmed that it should be......



Will be interesting to see how the E36 gets on in the next video

This is how I'd have mine.....

[L100NYY]

Could make a nice little project, one assumes a p/ex they took in.

Interior needs a retrim etc (maybe a nice pascha or subtle tartan restomod type affair) which wouldn't cost a lot.......

Pretty sure it was a straight advert, someone linked it on another forum I'm on. I tried the link but the old ad doesn't show up so I guess it was pulled?
