Lol Plumb, nice save! :drink: Think your got away with that one. :lol:

Nice Imola. Over here that's known as yellow though. However you've got a hole in your wing. :P

I'll just leave this here:



No point in watching, just fast forward to 38minutes.

P.S. Did we have a chat on Cutters a while ago?

Probably, I recall your user name :thumbs:
The RS4 and M3 are two different ways of doing the same thing, the RS is more refined and grown up whilst the M3 is more of an event, it trying to get my Mrs to drive the RS to the Nurburgring while I take the M3 then I can drive both cars in the same day so get a good comparison on the same day and hopefully conditions.
The Audi is a safe feeling car after the M3 with the tail happy spells it has if you push it to far.

Totally agree. I loved my E46 and it had a bit of drama. That said, a brief spell in a 987 Boxster made it feel soft. Having both the B7 and E46 is the best of both worlds. You'll only really be able to 'compare' them though if you mod the B7 to a similiar degree that you have with the E46.

A good chap on here from ages ago (Sonny) put KW V3's, Hotchkiss ARB's, lighter wheels (can't remember which, poss Team Dynamics), R888's, A set of Recaro Pole Positions and a bit of fettling under the bonnet and he went sideways happily around the ring, so it can be done.

Best colour and shoe by the way, looks exactly like mine did when I bought it, completely different now though.

A big FON! From the bottom of my heart, that one.

Found the indicators on the RS4 yet? I know they're an optional extra on M3s.

Haha yeah my M3 has indicators and bulbs but the guy who spiced it when new didn't put the option of having an indicator in the tick box :thumb:
My daily driver is a big white van that too hasn't got indicators lol :biggrin3:

Yes your is an inspiration but a lot of work too, maybe one day when I've run out of things on the BMW to do, I fancy a year with the carbon airbox on then bolting a supercharger to the M3.
