STFU, although it could do with the brakes from a GP as standard ones are shocking
GP would be better for track days
I do about 3 a year, whats the point.

Thats different you imbecile, Matt is telling me to sell my Cooper-S to get a GP when I reckon a well sorted Cooper-S would be just as good.
They are a gimmick.

Tbh a well sorted S will probs be as good.
I still vote for having a seperate track car tho.
Thats my plan. Especially as my daily is a barge now.

What I am saying is get one because you don't appear to do many miles, especially if you are getting a van so you are in a good position to something a bit different and special to keep in mint condition. Like when you had your Nurburgring VXR

I'd get an E90 mate makes the e46 feel really old!! After driving several e46's I decided to bump the budget up a little. Plus the manuals really are quite notchy/manly need to decide if you like them or not.
Just waiting for the 335d's to drop a little
