Yeah, have heard a lot about the Alpina Map on the TCU and it might well have helped the experience.

My car has a Hartge Map (~365bhp), Birds Bilstein Suspension/ARB Kit and a Quaife LSD and to be fair, with a manual gearbox, I think it'd have been all the things that I wanted it to be. But as a driving tool, the auto box kills the fun for me. The later (rare) DCT model might have been better, but I'll not buy another automatic toy/fun car for a long time.
