Project Sunny Dakar Z3///M Staring mnbrennan and the usual suspects

To be honest staceys clutch is far better than mine, biting at a nice level.

Mine bites low and is stiff
 
Yeah it's a ball ache in traffic, especially 1st year
 
There tends to be a bit of slack in the M drivetrain so she needs to learn to be progressive with the clutch. Took me a couple of weeks
There's a couple of ideas as to the best way to drive a ///m .The one I've found that I like the best and I'm usually showing all my teeth at the end of it,consists of lifting your foot off the clutch as fast as you can and planting the other one on the accelerator even faster......I'm not sure if my teeth are exposed in a grimace or a smile,left or right turns at junctions usually end up in a lovely donut before leaving in a cloud of tyre smoke and a little scream of exstacy .This does mean that you have to (however much it goes against the grain) take your foot off the loud pedal and sort of Flap or wave it up and down to enable the car to go in a straight line once you have the desired straight line normal service can be resumed :)......I can give lessons free of charge ....terms and conditions apply please read below

The car looks really good, can't wait to have a look round.
What a lucky car she is, gone to a fantastic home with two lovely people looking after her.
Looking forward to seeing you bring her back to all her glory.
