Very very nice.

Looking at a couple of silver ones myself a the minute.

Lichfield have a 10 plate silver one for sale ATM.

Can get a decent 09 plate one, but in 2 minds.

The MY10 at Litchfield is actually the one I went up to see, but it so happened that he also had the 59-plate one that I bought available at the same time, and it was a few grand cheaper AND had already had Stage 2 done.

I did look at the MY10, though, and it was mint. Looked like it had just come out of the showroom and Ian reckoned that it had never been tracked, launched, etc. It was in a lot better nick than a few others I have looked at.

That's great to know, as always better to get an unbiased version of a car before travelling.

Although it is a bit richer than I was wanting.

Middle hurst are getting an 09 black edition with 28k on the clock for £35k ish,, I was thinking of that and mods, or just going 10 plate for a few k more.

Jct 600 have a 14k 09 plate I can have for £37k,

I'm torn at the minute. Gtr or RWD BMW.

They are great cars, and with me doing less track days than I did, are appealing again.

GTR is a great piece of kit. The quicker you go the better it feels. The car has immense capabilities and during normal speeds you will not even tickle any of its talents.

Worse thing about the R35 is the ride. Best to change the tires to MPSS and better yet, install litchfields new suspension.

Mine has 3" gotboost intakes, cobb's stage 2 map for BigSF, HKS tranny pan, eibach roll bars, AP disc's/pads, dodson tranny upgrades, DIY 4 led, non-res mid-pipe, mpss square setup, tranny cooler etc. Lightly modded but more than enough for the road (600bhp). Litchfield kits are top notch and they tend to go with ECUTek which is very good too.

Super Silver (best color) with black wheels. ENJOY!!!

P.S. Make sure you install a bigger intercooler and an additional tranny cooler if you intend to track it as the tranny temp tends to rise pretty fast and if it goes over 100, you will need to change out the tranny fluid as it no good after that.
