Wow! great link Batfink

Some of those parts don't look upto 1000bhp though! is that intercooler big enough for example?

Starvos, talk to me!

This pic's mint


Little things like these make this car what it really is IMO when most people just like it because of the camera they were taken with. Most people will hate me but I think the outside is average m3 and CSL wannabe! and before people decide I'm jealous or whatever they come out with I'm not...I'll admit it is lovely but not as nice as people depict.

If it was an escort with a cosworth front bumper it would be classed as a rep and shit etc....but because it's more expensive it's not classed as a rep!

There's a CSL up the road to me for sale, which looks good and Im tempted to get rid of me Cos for it, but I would prefer a Cabriolet. Whats the difference engine wise with the CSL and the M3?

yer mate, there prob are a few reasons for it but im not sure on them although 1 i think is to save weight and that this is a more revy engine. and i think that engine is based on the very rare 320is which knocks out about a 190bhp where as a 2.5 6cilinder only has 171 bhp

Fantastic cars - if you want reliability, then go for the 3.0l M3, cracking engines, and if looked after will provide bags of entertainment right up to 100 miles +++

Evo's, again, cracking cars, but if you buy one, budget at least 1500 to replace the vanos IF it goes tits up... it can go at any point, so always be ready. Some have been known to go over 150k though so you just have to be prepared....
