Anyone any thoughts on whether or not this would be a good idea as a track day special?

Funnily enough I know that car. Came across it when I was supporting a friend race in track day trophy at setterton in October time
Chatted with Mr De-Jesus who owns it (great name) and seemed a nice guy. Sounds like he has done many races this season.
What was odd was that he clearly had plenty of money or support, with a huge car transporter cross motor home the size of an articulated lorry transporting just the little BMW
From what I saw the car had a few battle scars but seems sound enough. We beat him in the race in our 325i which was more standard but De-Jesus didn't have a clean race.
This car was actually for sale just after the race and had a for sale upon it over the weekend. Believe he wanted £4995 so a little bit cheaper.
May be worth a punt! -
its gonna feel a bit lackluste with a 1.8 isnt it?
does the T mnean it has a turbo and if so why would you buy a turbo track car?
id say MOVE DOWN THE BUSComment

No turbo Shim, think it stands for "Touring", from the old 2002 days
They're not sophisticated these first gen Compacts, as they don't have the usual E36 Z-axle multilink suspension and are basically an E30 in disguise, but they're good fun to punt alongComment

Nothing wrong with smaller engines, you just corner faster
It looks like Mike Gordon was looking after it.
Seems a very cheap car and if mike was looking after it all will be good.Comment

i.9 in a 800kg maybe but im guessing 318 is still over 1100kg with a cageOriginally posted by s.mac View PostNothing wrong with smaller engines, you just corner faster
