Not madly keen on the clio bigman - more of a megane man myself.

Had a clio Trophy for a year or so and although it was 100% reliable it was very harsh and uncompromising.

Although the new model is no doubt a more refined I prefer the meg cos it combines the performance with a lot more refinement - probably down to its larger size more than anything.

Well i'm a bit biased of course, but theyre right up my street.

Took the R26.R to bedford autodrome at the weekend and once i got used to the car and track we were flying - was well chuffed tbh - no way i'd have lapped that quick in the evo!!

Bonus is that its far more agreeable on the wallet too :D

Martin mate, easy to explain.

I was throwing the meg over kerbs that would have broken all the electronic crap underneath an evo - much easier mentally pushing a 20k car to the limit, rather than a 40k one - plus after 11 continuous laps it was still going strong, nothing overheated, faded, no warning lights came on and there was still plenty of feul left!!

Sure the evo is a faster car, but within the confindes of a track where really you make up your times in braking zones and carrying corner speed the gap is much narrower than out on the open road - which would explain why the R laps the evo test track nearly 0.5 quicker than an evo X.

Of course the M5 is still the fastest, best handling car ever :wink: and it is one of those I want next rather than an Exige 260 :lol: ...

...err, no, that last bit isnt true :nono:

Fair point Neil !

Over 2 laps the evo is quicker, then it falls to pieces and runs out of fuel :lol: :lol:

As for the barge5 you could let all 4 tyres down and it would still beat all :lol: :lol: :lol:

I suppose it is a bit much to expect a forum full of jap motor lovers to accept that a german weapon can out do your tuned vehicles!

Even when I have owned 15 Jap performance cars myself ranging from 280 - 480bhp.

Thankfully I live a bit more in the real world and speak from actual tests and comparisons made during those years of ownership, I'm a realist, I can accept the M5's not so good points, but I guard my decision that overall it is better than any jap tuned motor!

I suspect if some of you gents could afford it you would be driving high end vehicles yourselves and of course I appreciate that the reason why I am driving the high value car and you are not is because I have that ability to make informed decisions and have a considerable amount of intellect lacking in many of you. :wink:

p.s note that presa has hardly been on forum since his purchase, that is because he is out there enjoying what as far as I am concerned is the second best car in the world, the best being the F430.

Spot on Bigman, couldn't have put it better myself :thumb:

Term "give it can't take it" comes to mind

I know there are a few people who own WR1's...imitations... :lol: who could if needed to prove something could but a new barge5 or better :wink:
You own a 2nd hand barge5, nice motor it may be... :lol: end off nothing to shout from the trees about, now get back to being chicken legs you stuck up pompus jock :lol: :lol: :lol:


Also i'm expecting it to be sold within a month or two....

As for presa he probably working his nuts of to pay for the running costs, or he has sold it :lol:

So bigman - when you buy a second hand GTR - i'm sure if you could afford it you'd be buying new cars :lol: - will it be better than the M5??

Bearing in mind that overall its about half a minute faster than the BM around the 'ring, and that seems to matter, A LOT, to builders of "german weapons" Weapons that have so far won fcuk wars :wink:

Bro, Since day 1 I have brought entertainment (check back) :lol:

Imposter, I'm more than happy to accept the wind ups and banter, at the end of the day this is all my posts generally are, I can promise you though this one is staying 3 years atleast, simple reason being there is nothing out there worth replacing it with.

POESY - Not being funny but I buy brand new cars all the time for my company, and I have watches worth more than your cars :wink: Unfortunatley as good as the GTR may be, it bothers me not as it is still a plastic two door jap boys toy which would do nothing for my credibility turning up at clients premises where the car parks are lined with German Machinery. I wouldnt expect you to understand how business works but unfortunatley those are the circles I work in.
