I had a BMW 130i M-Sport before.
Obviously it's not as quick etc but it's so much more fun. The BMW was a great car but it just wasn't fun I just used to put it in 6th gear and that was that.
This car makes you want to have fun.
It's a full fat non cupped so had the softer suspension. I did test drive the cup one too but didn't think it was too big of an issue wether the one I bought had the cup suspension or not. Since then I've fitted some KW Coilovers (which are amazing) mainly to lower the ride height. (Which is too high cupped or not). I just didn't want to ruin the handling fitting cheapo springs not matched to the dampers.
Compared to other halfs 182 it's more grown up in every way whilst still being as fun if not more even if she won't admit it haha.

I also got dragged into the OCUK must have a BMW and RWD trap. I just find FWD more fun on the road.
Light output peaks around 6-8k, after that it starts to be worse. This is my understanding of HID/Xenon anyway.
