Has anyone experience of looking after mat paint work as  fancies Mat Cream. I have a matte paint on my M3W. Very easy to keep spick & span. Use specialist wash fluid, and follow up with a surface sealer on a sponge before hosing off & wiping down with a cloth. Simple, really.

What about durability ? No clear lacquer coating.

As I understand it, it's still a lacquered finish, just a matte one.

I recognize all the dash switches, except one. What is the Sound Switch on the Dash?? Lower Right.

Am I getting the feeling that, even at £60k [with a couple of options etc] on the road, this car is quite good value? there are not many options apart from paint and spare wheel ..

At £60k I'd be looking at a 3.7 Roadster.

On top of all that is the fact that as a limited production run, it could actually hold its' price quite well over the years too?
If it had a bit more room in the back, I could be seriously, seriously interested, but there you are, no room behind the seats. [Think 3 terriers, a couple of bags as well as a large Waitrose shop, [my wife always does a large shop at Waitrose] The 4 seater copes really well, but I do not want or need that really ugly seat belt tower at the back or the horrible hood the 4 seater is burdened with.] Come on Paul you know that it makes sense to upgrade for a limited and quicker newer car, life too short, and you have another car for the other luggage. Perfect for nipping along those twisty roads and playing on track days!
