Well, it made me smile. Interesting to read a) it's a sort of production model/kit b) because the kit is carbon fibre it's lighter and faster than the original and c) lean angle 35°

So, overall, yeah why not? :thumbup:

It's not something i'd want where i live... but if living in Brighton/Bournemouth and cruising down to the beachfront to get a beer/latte was on the cards, then i'm all over it... it's cool beyond words.. Different and radical enough, but classy with it.

Some nice touches too...that grille just says 'BMW'.

You'd have to have a Paul Smith suit and design house parka to go full Quadrophenia though. :D
