As some of you may have seen, a silver m coupe was sold at CCA auctions on Saturday. I was the winning bidder! I put in a cheeky commission bid, not expecting to win.

Picking up the car tomorrow. I live in Northern Ireland and I haven't seen the car in the flesh!
Hoping there isn't too many surprises. After a short google search with its reg, I did find out about some of its history. It was owned by a guy in France for a while in 2014. I found it on a French forum thread. He had made lots of modifications with the suspension. And the one of the owners before him him had it fitted with a short shifter and Remus exhaust. All these things point to it having a hard life. He also had a few photos of the car at the Nurburgring
If anyone knows anything else about the cars history I'd love to hear about it. Unless it's really bad then maybe it's best you don't tell me
Plan with the car is to try and get it back to original. Get all the mechanical gremlins sorted. And get the bodywork back to its best. If it's as good as I hope, I plan to keep it and drive it!
I'm buying it with my Dad. Both of us have been fans of the m coupe since they were new. Always looking for one to buy but recently the prices have been untouchable. This one seems like a bargain, fingers crossed it's not buggered!
