Edited: What he said; beat me to it!

Plenty of people (both in this thread and in my friend group) have said that it could make sense on a 50/50 track car only arrangement so not all of the opinions are the same as yours. I am sorry for having free will and the ability to make my own decisions though :tongueout:

Very valid points mate thank you; every one is giving me stuff to think about so thanks for your advice so far.

I haven't made up my mind at all, I was just looking to get people's opinions which I am grateful for.

I have known him for 3 years and get on very well with him. It's Not that we don't trust each other it's just see we can both be prepared for every eventuality; nothing wrong with planning ahead in my opinion. I don't know if I can financially justify having a car solely for trackdays.

I do have my wife's car which I could use. She barely uses it and could get by without it for a week or two. No different to your daily breaking down under normal circumstances in my opinion.

No it would be 50/50 if it was shared track use only. The split would be different if I used it as a daily as per my original post.

I got on very well with my boss, he is not your typical MD and we are always talking about cars; I have even detailed his cars in the past. I understand the point on crash damage etc... But surely if you had something pre-agreed there wouldn't be an issue? We would have a signed contract that...

It would be agreed that it would be free for me Monday - Friday and free on weekends for trackdays. He would only use it on weekends anyway.

Afternoon All, I am currently looking at getting a Clio 172 Cup for a mix of fast road and track use. A friend of mine has a written agreement with one of his co-workers which basically means that they co-own the car and both take it for trackdays as and when, sometimes going together. My MD...

I will definitely become a member in the near future.

It's a shame that Brentacre didn't call you back as they are very reasonable and generally very good with modifications.

Chemical Guys Glossworkz.

Well done for saving it; really hate seeing cars being scrapped. Will keep an eye on the project

Hi all I am considering buying a FF 182 with reg SH04 ZNR. It has a few decent mods so I would guess it has been enthusiast owned at some point. Does anyone know the owner? It was used as a PX about 4 weeks and the new owner is just moving it on. Would love to have a chat with the last "proper"...

Thanks very much for the advice. Diamond Motors is probably the closest to me so I have PM'd Mick for some prices. Let me know if you see any good 182 / 172s for sale too. Thanks

Thanks for the advice, very helpful. As with any car (but especially a hot hatch) I would only buy one with FSH; I have always been of the opinion that a fully serviced and looked after car with 150k miles on it is better than a 70k equivalent with dozens of owners and no history. I am quickly...

Thanks. I wil try and dig some Mini photos out; my pride and joy was a concourse condition 1962 Cooper S; if I had kept hold of it I would have made a fortune on it, prices have gone through the roof!

Good Morning all, I know that you will have seen this post a million times from pretty much every other new member but here it goes! My vehicle history is very mixed but have mainly had an interest in hot hatches from day 1 including a 306 gti6, 205 gti, mk2 Golf gti, more classic Minis than...
