Is it mapped as they don’t come out of he box in that level of performance. Big risk modifying while making the warraanty worthless
Yes, by MSL. By the previous owner. I wouldn’t have felt the need to do it. It’s c 580 and 600 out of the box.

Not as fast as lots of stuff here but seems good after 3 hours of ownership!

Here's the dealer photo of mine, they've captured the subtle off-white really nicely.

However, there is a Sepang Bronze V10 M5 on Autotrader that is really, really tempting me...

Do it life is short they are rare and you’ll never likely again find such a good one.

Cheers. It's a Japanese import GT Spec B, so it's got the 2 litre twinscroll 280bhp engine. Can't remember the precise figures, but it's sub-6s to 60 and weighs just under 1500kg. Keeps me amused anyway smile

Does anybody know where this photo was taken? Somewhere in Wales, perchance?

I experimented with the idea of a fast estate, so bought a C63 wagon. Unfortunately I found myself never using the practicality of the car and instead actually kept my old C180 wagon to use as a daily.

I now run an R320 as a daily (it's a tall estate but not exactly fast) and have gone back to having toy cars.

Obligatory photo of my old C63 to keep with the thread:

Looks like the old military road near Grantown on Spey.
Loving this thread
Some great inspiration

The problem is I don't know if it is a good one, and I'm too scared to go and look at it in case I buy it.

It's the Cockbridge to Tomintoul road also known as The Lecht, The Old Military Road or the boring A939 thumbup

Oh and it's in Scotland not Wales

Snap it’s why I don’t go and test drive cars as without question I buy it there and then.

So a cost saving activity don’t test drive cars as your wallet or loan will happen and then you have S lofelt new beast on the drive

Always had a bit of a soft spot for quick estates (well, estates in general to be honest) but these two are particularly nice. Always liked the Minis and the Focus ST normally likes a bit mundane to me but proof a few choice mods makes all the difference. clap
