Hi peeps Names Steven McConnell, 22, come from up north near Glasgow. Currently driving my S2000 but take a guess which car I'm eyeing up as my next toy. Done my research and know a fair bit about the MPS' but everycar I've enquired about, the owner has recomended this place for the source of all knowledge. Anyway maybe get to know some of you better in the future, not been using the forums for a while now since I was into the VAG scene, heres the brief atm.  Cheers Steven

Welcome McConnell, I had a black s2000 last year for a few month, boy are you gonna have a rude awakening in a turbo car lol. S2000 has high revving BHP but not much torque. MPS has both, it'll definitely put a smile on your face after getting out of the s2000

thanks guys
think its prob becoz for the past year and a half i've driven a small car with 2 seats, which is why my friends call it the "unsociable car"
.... so the idea of a big car for a change really appeals to me.
combine that with its pretty much on par with the s2000 for speed (btw anyone ever had the [legal} chance of racing an s2000 to compare speed????? I'm not just some fanny I actualy do abit of racing)
and the 4wd aspect of it aswell makes it a winner
