After 5 1/2 eventful years of ownership my S1 has been taken away by it's new French owner..... Here's a few pics of the highs and lows during my ownership -

 

 

Where it all began, Pretty much standard with 118bhp -

And some great days on track including two class wins and two 2nd places in my 1st year of sprinting -

And finally the new owner and friends taking the car away today, They are a group of friends based in Bordeaux who compete in endurance racing in a tuned S1, they are not sure what they are doing with my car but most likely have it as a sister car their current race car !

A little sad but I did all I could with the car and it's time for a change and something new to tinker with ! cool.png

You will regret letting it go, but you have to move on and look forward to your next one.

Martin, i think you are right. They have got a great bargain there.

 

So tells us more about the replacement. ????
