Had this for around 7 months now and love it. Cleaned it today and the sun was out so thought I'd take a few pictures.

It has a Janspeed Manifold, reduced pulley, lowered on Eibach springs and goes like mad. I love it, the sound alone is worth it! Pops, bangs and a great soundtrack. Took it over Ditchling today and had a great time.





Hope you like biggrin

Excellent, love these things! Strangely, the lack of rear seats makes them even more appealing to me

Looking good there! We'll have to actually stop one day and have a wee West Sussex photo shoot. Cracking locations in & around the area!

I owned a Cooper S which I only felt lukewarm about. Is the GP significantly different / better?

This is running around 230bhp which compared to a standard S is way more, even the tuned S's rarely made it over 200 from factory. Compared to my previous cars (S2000, CRX) it feels far more powerful and exciting!

I'm playing football Saturday so am not around, sorry!

Looks good but you seem to like parking close to walls which must make getting out hard wink

Luckily I'm an expert escape and no door or wall was harmed in the making of these photos. biggrin
I'd rather park next to a wall and no that a car door can't hit from at least one side!!!

Great car! Love these.

Am suprised they have not held thier money more, or even appreciated - was quite suprised at used prices the ther day. Seems quite reasonable for a special car.

Been about 10 grand for a while havent they.

Maybe in 25 years they might be worth more.
