Hey all

Hey all

i'm Andrew and i'm brand new to this forum! had a SEAT ibiza for the last 6 years (eek) and been a member over at seatforums.net for a long while.

but the time has come to depart with the ibiza and i wanted something with a lot more oomph to it and so i've ended up ordering a new MCS due to get to me early april (fingers crossed)

look forward to gaining a bit more knowledge as ive kinda ordered the car with very little knowledge and just 1 test drive (it was enough!!)
look forward to speaking to you all

Welcome to the dark side of BMW, they aren't as brave with their cars as the VAG lot but are more friendly!

I had a Euro'd MK2 Golf and a MK1 Golf G60 before the MINI

well i'm getting the car as a company car relatively cheap but the problem is you have to pay the full whack for any extras you add, even tho i'll hand it back in 2 years for a new one. Therefore i have left it vastly unspecced!

Gone for the Dark SIlver with black roof, star blaster alloys, on board computer and sports suspension.
Kinda wishing i had added the MFS now but live and learn! Really wanted the chilli pack along with a whole load of other funky bits but i couldnt justify another £4k over 2 years. At least i wont have to worry about the residual price lol.
Still muchly looking forward to it tho
