I was changing the driveshafts on a Renault 14 and dislocated the balls on the new shaft by banging it too hard. What a faffle getting the bally balls back in place. Towed a glider from RAF Marham in Narrrfalk to Aboyne just south of Aberdeen to go wave soaring. Mind blowing flying and the Renault being fwd pulled the trailer through the snow up hill and down dale. Loved it.

Now that sounds rather painful and brings up images I would rather not have:eek::eek::eek:

That looks pretty nice. Good to see it isn’t just a rebodied version of another model.

Tough competition in that sector and price bracket - most buyers will I suspect go for safer options.
If I had that sort of money to piss up the wall on a sports car, I’d be looking at an M240i. As you say, a safer option and for all the right reasons. For a kick off, I know it’ll start every morning!
