I am happy to be called a fanny driving mine, just means people are more shocked when a birds car hands them their arse.
Have you remapped yours yet mwg? Im looking at them ATM, seen a nice low mileage JCW for around £13k but have had loads of 200bhp cars so would be looking for a bit more. Apprently they map to over 250 but don't know how true that is....

No I haven't. Yeah think they are 260-265bhp when remapped Might actually ruin it with that much power through the front wheels so undecided if I'll get it done or not.

Should be alright with 265 bhp, the golf edition 30's do over 300 on a remap throgh the front wheels, I can imagine thats a handful.

I've got it in my head that a smaller lighter car with that kind of power is going to just spin all the extra power away. Still tempted though

One of those electronic diffs. Got to turn off the traction control completely for it to work, it feels like it really pulls the car round corners when you do though.
You would have to have a lot of options and no discount to end up paying 26k.

Like any one goes and buys a car of that value out right anyway. Doesn't make sense. Unless you were uber loaded I guess
