Sounds perfect to me - would be my preference too without DRC and without dynamic steering!

I keep wondering if it is it the right move come resale time but can't help thinking last of v8 NA RS's with no DRC. In 5 years time it's one less thing to worry about.

Good choice! Enjoy the new motor for what it is and not what it will be worth

So I've decided to look for cars with the sports pack. The exhaust (for me) and comfort mode (for Mrs b) is too important. Felt the non-DRC car was to firm versus the comfort mode.

Now just need the fingers crossed one comes up with my spec ASAP - or at least before the world melts and I end up needing the money for baked beans and a shotgun! :sekret:

There are quite a few out there. Far easier to find than one without.
