I wouldnt recommend one as a daily drive, if you want a daily driver your better off with something like an E36 M3 or similar.

Just had a thought would be a silly Idea to use as a everyday car.
Considering I never liked using my series 1 daily. Never trusted it parked.
Just wanted a idea if anyone had a standard 3 door they use reguarly.

I sold mine a couple of month ago, i had it for about 3 years, i sold it with 52k on the clock and it got used every day, rain/snow/sun etc and it never let me down.
Hope this helps.
GET ONE!!!!

I would like to use everyday. but Probably not a wise idea due to them being a target for theives.
I want one that will have roughly 300 bhp reliable to use. Not looking for big bhp

I make sure I don't leave my 2wd sapphy anywhere too long, so it would be worse with a 3 door, as for driving everyday, I do that most of the time, at least 4/5 times a week.
"lively" is a bit of an understatement when wet, especially when tweaked.

Nope, wouldn't even consider it. Uses too much fuel and would be stolen within 3 days where I park for work (chelmsley wood for the brummies ) It also makes it more special when you do take it out if you use it occasionaly.
