selling the R58

Well Guy's

It looks like the little R58 Coupe which is a blast to drive might be sold today.

I wanted to thank each of you for the comradery on this board.

This little R58 is a Gem of a car most fun you can have for the money period. Handling is excellent initial turn in is on par with my modern P cars.

Simple truth is wife wants a Clubman S loaded up and the wife gets what she wants she is that good.

Take Care
Ian

Sorry to hear this :( Good luck with the new Clubman. At least you are getting another MINI.

Loaded up Clubman 3rd Gen is the sh#t. Wish my wife wanted one. She loves driving my Coupe though. She prefers bigger cars.

You will miss your Coupe.

Your wife maybe happy for now but I don't see anything exciting about the Clubman. When I look at the big rear door post in the middle of the rear view mirror, it is really depressing. Good Luck.

An Exotic Japanese would have been far better in this price range..... never have been a fan of Porsche.

Nice looking Clubman Ian. My wife likes the new Clubman as well. So far she's refused to drive one for fear of having to buy it "right now" lol. Sorry to see the Coupe go but what the old saying? Happy wife... happy life.
