By the way, are you keeping the Porsche?

Thanks for the offer Gerry, going by the interest in a MINI GTG in NC we may drive Mrs Alpine's car up to meet the new family member.
The Porsche is on the market mate, can't have everything I am afraid

Re the springs - check out the Eibachs, I've just fitted them to mine and they're not bad.
Drops the rear 10 mm and the front 25mm. doesn't seem much but it has smartened up turn in, which I feel is a little sluggish as standard, and the ride, though firmer, is less harsh and skittish. Also, with the relatively moderate drop I'm not scraping too much. I did a little research before buying and the consensus was that the Eibachs have a ( slightly ) better ride than the K & Rs with an equivalent level of quality and performance
Just a thought.

Hi Gazz, yes and no, the CR is NOT the car to be a daily driver nor is it a car that you can visit clients in, as well if you drive it you want to do so for fun, not as a a DD.
Thanks re the springs, will investigate, think I just want that little drop that Joe has without much, if any, change in ride comfort.
