a BMW M3 the new ones...
wasnt from a standing start.. was from about 40mph...
either way i could see he was wanting to give it some, with his "barbi" lookin girl in the passenger seat.. and me with a rather hairy lad
gave him a good run on full boost (about 280bhp with full traction)
pulled away from him nicely, he was giving it some, cos i thought i werent gonna beat his ass (which would have been bad) but sure enough i pulled away from him.. and before i knew it i was at 120mph 
Love LET corsas

You'd set fire to 45 grand? 
Seriously though, I think the same, I could buy an acre for that money.

Yes, I'm considering this now Rich, done my stuff, got a C20LET to silly figures, I've conquered and will give over soon, other things/projects in life which I fancy tackling.

yes exactly, iv had the corsa, astra, tigra and two 106GTi's, now its a toss up between Z3 or CTR, just for couple years tili get an evo or something. i want something reasonable on performance, but not arsed abotu stupidly loud or fast, iv done the modifying thing, now i want good standard car. plus i think it would go down better with the lasses folks
