I say this but did buy one with A/c but rarely use it. It grates with me that there is a loss of power if you use it . In short I bought one with A/c as it is 'expected' on resale.

On summer track days with extended lappage solutions it can get very hot inside the car and most sweaty (I don't sweat easily wither) nice to have air con for the cooldown laps. Also if driving to the HungaroRing in summer then AC essential (Ok the Nurburgring too). It is also looked at for resale as Pip says.

Agree though that the pure CSL is the optionless one, often referred to as poverty spec.

Very good Shimmy (aka xenophobic, racist, narrow minded car snob) . I am surprised anyone can get away with those sorts of comments these days what with western Europe having gone mad with human rights and health and safety.

Is it just me that goes up 10ft ladders without a harness and helmet (oh and my neighbour but then he also over extends himself whilst up there )?
