Indeed. I do miss my Pug. It was such a fun little car to drive and stuck to the road like glue. Mine was the 1.9TD LX

Yeah, I'd have loved a Cupra R but at the time of looking the insurance was just a little bit too much.

Had a couple of Leon Cupra Rs. Bought a brand new one in March 2003 then PXd for another in April 2006. Enjoyed them both but got bored near the end so PXd again in July 2008 for an Evo IX (and I thought the Leons were quick!)

Best choice mate, the Evo X sucks big time compared to the 7-9 series Evos.
If the insurance here wouldn't be as horrendously expensive i'd get one in an instant.

I wish you happy KM with it, watch your corners and keep smiling...
I somehow missed this message before.

Thanks. Done about 500km on that bike now. Working well, not sure what to do with that, likely to get smaller register plate holder, perhaps build a streetfighter at winter or something. Friend made half serious joke about installing turbo to that, would not be that hard to do but takes "some" money which I atm dont have. Getting used to the extra power it has compared to my previous R6. Meh, could still be faster.

You'll be a lot less afraid once you get to know your bikes and your own limits mate.

320CD M sport is not M3.

It's a 320 diesel, with the "M Sport" trim package.

(I had an old Accord at 21...)

I did not have any car when I was at 21. Still dont have one and have 24th b-day at October. Bought Kawa Z750 when I was 21... Noticed that motorbike is more economical as it doesnt consume any fuel at winter.

If you're comparing both to a viper acr, then yeah, the M3 and 320D m sport are close.

But if it's just between the 320d m sport, and the M3, then they are worlds apart.

With close i meant they can compete, not that they're identical.
