Was it BMW ?


I bought a Vauxhall 2l. engined Caterham HPC back in the early '90s with a High Performance Course thrown in for free, (hence the model designation),there was some publicity about not being allowed to buy the car if the option of the course wasn't taken up.

I cannot remember if other manufacturers did something similar, if not, it would be a good idea, more so these days than ever before.
