Fletch's BMW M2.

[TimR26]

It's a really nice car inside and out, thanks for letting me have a drive round the car park.

 

[Mr Plums]

How much are these?

 

[Short Norman]

How much are these?

£46k base list price
on BMW website they offer them for £7k deposit and £590 a month, I'm sure you could get better.

Considering the performance and the fact it's a brand new car, that's a bargain!

 

[Silent_Scone]

Very nice mate!

f**k me that's as much as my mortgage. I'll never understand expensive cars lol (unless CS baller/millionarire of course)

 

[Chris V6 255]

Absolutely love that! Definitely my fav colour.
That is my realistic dream car.

Love the car and the colour. Can't wait to see it in the flesh.

These seem a bit of a bargain to me, my local BMW dealer is offering some lol PCP deals on them. Be interesting to see where values go!

How is the car day-to-day? Or is it more of a weekend thing? I keep thinking of just PCP'ing something newer when I buy a house and they do appeal.

Who is your local BMW dealership Jason?

ATM the car is more of a weekend/ evening thing, as my daily is the Hilux, and my fiancé drives the Fabia vRS. But the M2 would make a great daily driver.

North Oxford BMW. I dont use mine as a daily mainly to keep miles off it, and of course fuel costs. M2 that was nearly new would eliminate that somewhat, I was looking at a Cayman GTS but they're £60k+ USED! Didnt realise they were so much. E92 is with me for another year at least anyway.

That would make sense... but your E92 M3 is nice, makes a change to see one in Melbourne red mate.

Thanks! The colour is what attracted me to it. I need to sell for a house deposit though, so next car will either be cheapo or new/financey dealy! Keep this thread updated, will enjoy seeing how you get on with the M2

 

[Niall]

Stunning! That colour really shows how aggressive and wide these are.

Can't wait to see it in 2018

 

[Christopher.]

Can't wait to see it in 2018 :wink:

@TimR26 turn to do one.

 

[Slammed172]

Very nice.

 

[Short Norman]

have you seen this M2 crash..
https://stv.tv/news/north/1390949-two-people-cut-from-car-after-serious-road-accident/

there's also a video on faceache showing the car pass a group of people and bugger me he was absolutely flying.

 

[Scrooge]

s**t the bed that was carrying some pace!

 

[terryc101]

f**k about! That is mangled, must've been doing 100 odd in that clip surely?

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

The pilot was only 22, too.

I think his ambitions and abilities were mixed up somewhere down that road!

 

[Short Norman]

glad that Kia didn't get caught up in it

 

[Christopher]

Jesus!

 

[Smiffyboy1990]

Hellfire that was some speed!

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes I guess. f**king hell.

 

[Silent_Scone]

Mind that tree, idiot.

 

[Jason_E]

FFS! Should be a basic IQ test that comes with the driving license, what a f**king weapon!

 

[Fletcher]

I gave the M2 a good clean over the weekend, which included a coat of Auto Finesse spirit wax, but the sun has gone in since.

And finally had the running in service done yesterday..

Only done around 70/80 miles since the RIS, and it's been pretty wet, but am very impressed, it's quick, and the exhaust is getting louder

Hopefully get some go pro footage over the weekend!

 

[Mr Plums]

Does it feel loads quicker than your 172 lol?

It might sound silly, but some fast cars just dont.

 

[Pep]

This looks alright to me!

 

[Fletcher]

Good question..

It didn't feel that much quicker at first, understandable as my 172 is totally stipped out and bloody rattley and noisy but now I can rev it out, and not worry about running it in it feels properly quick!

 

[Pep]

How did you drive to run it in mate?

 

[Fletcher]

How did you drive to run it in mate?

I tried to keep it below 4.5 for the first 500 or so miles and then under 5k for for the rest of the running in mate.

Limiter limiter limiter limiter limiter limiter limiter limiter limiter limiter.....

You must have the patience of a saint!
I've been good upto now, but only done 86 miles today and it was a struggle!

 

[Fletcher]

It wasn't to bad tbh. It didn't seem to take long to get to 1,200 miles Joe.

 

[Christopher.]

Go pro you say. Weekend you say. Compared to a petrol blue you sort of say.......
