no need to be jealous there not that good, they do sound great though and glide along nicely but i couldnt liv ewith fuel consumption ok for a runabout though if dont do many miles or cain it a lot which i couldnt resist sitting on second and 1st as so smooth  :cool:

do miss it though was so easy to drive fast a smooth;y but wasnt amazing or anything that special but did sound nice

ha all you lot make em sound like there amazing, ur right the bmw engine 323 325 feels much better i felt

this was my old vr6, are the later one a lot better? mine had heavy controls but told newer ones are better




Always felt a bit heavy on the front (coz of the big lump over the wheels). I could live with that, but not the mpg..... :cry:

Next car will be back to the mk2, G60 I think, love em....

I'm not too fussed with the fuel consumption I either walk or cycle to work so the car is for the weekends.
