United-Kingdom Lohen Vs Microsoft

Help. I have a terrible life changing dilema.

Do I, A) Buy the Lohen stage one bluefin upgrade kit for my 2002 Mini One
B) Buy the technilogical marvel that is the XBox 360?

Both have huge pro's and cons and I have wanted both things for a long time!!!!!!!!!!

I can't decide. Think my head is going to explode!!!!!!

PS3's been getting pretty poor reviews over at E3 - very expensive too.

But still, get the bluefin and wait for the console wars to heat up a little more before you make a decision... if you can wait!

Bluefin will do so much more for your social life !! Put the console off until the crap weather comes back.

Engine upgrade == increase in insurance as well...

Wait for the ps3.... or if you are desparetly impatient get the xbox360... it is an awsome bit of kit...

Insurance increase isn't a problem because the kind people at my insurance firm have confirmed that the Lohen bluefin upgrade would cost an additional £47. So that less that a night out in a club!!!!!!

Bargain

Thats pretty unanimous in favour of the Lohen upgrade!!!

I guess I'll get more fun and use out of the Lohen upgrade during the coming summer months than I would the XBox 360.

Has anyone had the stage 1 lohen upgrade? Am i in for a treat?

Get the Lohen. You'll enjoy it more.

The Xbox will probably be replaced by year's end. I understand the next generation of games is coming out before Christmas rendering your Xbox360 obsolete.

More fun to drive a real car than play simulations.
