Finally - now part of the elite!
Well after nearly three months looking I finally pulled the trigger on my first cecil on Thursday. I am absolutely astonished at how good this car is, I knew it would be focused but every drive is an occasion and an assault to the senses..
I have had a normal M3, and several high powered Evo's amongst other cars and I can safely say the Cesil blows them out of the water. The build quality, the driving position, the noise (wow the noise), I am finding myself coming home, sitting there for 10 mins then asking if we need anything else from the shop, obviously taking the long way around. Picked my lad up last night from school, didn't tell him id bought it, his grin was a picture. The when I opened the taps (he calls it super boost) the giggles were nearly as loud as the intake. My only real gripe is I don't want to be putting loads of miles on it so need to stay out of it... Hmmm, reckon I could sleep in it?? Actually, there is one other thing, Cups and rain doesn't mix, couple of twitchy arse moments all ready. Anyway, enough waffling, she is calling again... the car not the wife

Cheers Lads, it really was worth the wait.. I do need to put some other tyres on though, slightest power and I get slip with the cups.
