M2

[DazBlackCSL]

I've had one on order for a while. Coming in April. Not bothered by limited edition or values, only that it seems to go somewhere back to what a small M car should be, like the 1M really.

It's great value when you think what I paid for E46 M3 back in the day. Plus with sensible spec (I'm going light on spec) it's well under the same spec M3/4 price wise and I really don't want to spend £65k. Makes perfect sense for me but maybe not everyone.

I really hate this speculative market on new cars. I make money from my business, not new cars. They are to enjoy...................while we can!

Yes you should, I want to see more!

My friend has had his a month or so, he loves it, I think they are a superb road car, look and sound really nice.

There was a nice black one for sale at an independent garage near me, I considered one myself.

Car at Romans ?

Glad to hear your are enjoying the car :thumbs:

For an everyday drive it's all I wanted.

:thumbs: Keep up the reports. Be interesting to read the comparison with Cesil.

To be honest, for feel and seat of the pants thrills the CSL runs rings round it, pointing and laughing at it. CSL is in bodyshop for a tidy up but looking forward to taking them out with a mate and doing some back to back driving.

Really chuffed for you mate :beer:

You def chose right colour and box.

May be down on power compared to M4, but way cooler IMO.

Ian, up to 100 it feels every bit as quick mate and as a road motor it's more than enough. It sounds miles better (it's no CSL however )

Sounds awesome mate.:thumbs::thumbs:

Cheers Brett.

Running in service done.

It's a brilliant bit of kit and fuckin rapid! Revs properly to 7 unlike M135i/235i. Sounds the nuts. Looks brilliant. On a good A/B road you really need no more power just this side of sane speeds.

I have decided the steering is utter wank! All electric PAS is utter shit. It's better than most and better than the M3/4 set up but I really think M division should stick to their guns with normal steering like they do with run flat tyres. :banghead:

However, as is the genius of M division, somehow it doesn't take too much shine off the car. It's a proper balls out tool this thing.

Overall, happy as a pig in shit.

No lag to speak of. Extremely impressive.

My CSL hasn't gone anywhere. M2 used as daily. My Mrs pinched it yesterday. I was slumming it in her Golf TDi. :bigcry:

Biting your nails till she brought the car home safe and sound :whistle:

OK, update. 450 miles in. Forming a bond with this car now but must try harder to get run in mileage done. Very bad effort so far!

Steering - I was already growing tired of the electric PAS. There's a strange issue to the non-feeling PAS braking over bumps that I just can't get my head around. That was until I discovered sport+ gets rid of it. I'm now defaulting straight to sport+ the second the car starts. It's still there a tiny bit but the firmer steering setting in sport+ makes the car much more controllable without the strange missing feel over bumps.

That's all for now apart from it's a riot to drive and sounds the nuts!

Still happy but it's no CSL. Can't wait to get it back on the road later this month.
