So, had a good look round the new JCW today.
First impressions - like Craig, we were underimpressed.
It's "just" an R56. To be honest, that's how we really felt about it. Nothing new, nothing startling, and nothing spectacular, which you would think you would get after waiting 18 months for the factory car.
The exhaust looks like they got to within 2" of the end and decided not to bother with the rest - and where's the JCW logo on the tips?
The rest of the car was stock R56, in a lovely Chilli red and balck roof.
But those wheels.... oh, those wheels....... oh, ohhh. I just messed my pants thinking of them.
Sorry folks, need to head off and clean this mess up.
