I'd either go BBR or get a JCW Motorsport upgrade. But with option 2 you'd be over budget?
How much is it?

What is it?

Have you driven it?

Aiden get the Works - its plenty.;)

Well, the 210 is definitely upgradable, and the 220 and 240 might not be warrantied even? :confused:

Even if they are, they will be chunky money ! :eek:

When does the 210 version come out? How much more will it be? Can yhou put it on the '04? Will it be possible to upgrade the old 200 hp model to the 210? If so, how much will that cost? Heck you already spent $4500! should be FREE, or if the new kit cost $5000, should only be responsible for $500. So many questions, so little answers.

Aiden I've said it many times before and I'll say it again.... :rolleyes: :p

If you're not hankering after more power yet hold off. Do you want to be at the very top of the ladder or experience all the rungs along the way.
I still regret upgrading to a MCS after only 6 mths of Cooper ownership. I never really got to appreciate the Cooper for what it is :(

Spend some money enjoying other things in life too ;)
Somthing maybe you and Denise can both appreciate :)

Errrrr.....me :confused:
I've gone for the 192 instead of the 231bhp Roxy :eek: :eek:
There's only so much power one can use and I just couldn't justify the extra £2k.

Aiden if there's such a problem with the money burning a hole in your pocket I'm always open to receiving gifts :p :D :D

Why don't you use the money to up the power on your forthcoming beemer, that'll need it more ;)

AidenL
Jul 6th, 2004, 02:10 PM
OK Martin, send me your address, I'll send over the cash.............:p

Can't upgrade the Beemer - BIK and Company Policy Problems..........:(

Wonder can you tweak a 5 Series discreetly ? :confused:
