    Trade Z4+GRY for an M2 Comp - Am I mad?

    Kind of where I'm at with the GRY !!! The new CTR still struggles with it's looks in my view, front end is so bland, compare to a M2 which has lots of attitude. So yeah I'm still leaning to the M2C option, struggling to find that mystical crystal ball to know what I should do with the...

    LOL, I guess a cancelled order when the person saw the price..... don't you just love a franchised dealership when they try and flip them for an increased profit.

    Just inquired about a new CTR !!.... No demo cars at dealers..... Unknown quantity available or coming to the UK. So can place an order/deposit, but no idea if or when you might get one..... So it's Déjà vu GR Yaris........ The world is **** up.... Manufactures want to sell their best/...

    Trade Z4+GRY for an M2 Comp - Am I mad?

    Think a GR86 would appeal more, but as they sold out in 40 mins, half probably to people planning on flipping them I’m not going down that crazy route. I’d have Z4 over a pretend Supra. Yes the GRY was over hyped. My commute changes from 200 mile motorway round trip once a week, to 3 40...

    Trade Z4+GRY for an M2 Comp - Am I mad?

    Interesting, was expecting it to be quieter and more refined than the GR, so that would be a disappointment. I’m not against fitting a better set of dampers etc, had to do that to my Focus RS.

    Trade Z4+GRY for an M2 Comp - Am I mad?

    Have a dilemma or itch to scratch, tempted to sell my Z4 35iS and my 18 Month old GR Yaris and buy a M2 Competition, in orange! Really enjoyed and like my Z4, my third, had it 3 years, not overly struck on the styling of the new G29/M40i plus I could have a change. The GRY is starting...

    New car delays.

    It’s all down to global chip shortages, which will last another year or two. Not the oems fault, they juggle available supply to biggest sellers/demand, ie new Defender in JLR case. Many companies outside of automotive will fail as they won’t have product to sell with the right chip. Plus...

    Toyota Yaris GR4 4x4 Rally going into production.....

    A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, plus they all the same spec so not missing out on anything. Oh and a cancelled order will probably be 4K over list.

    Toyota Yaris GR4 4x4 Rally going into production.....

    I think the technique people use is pester a range of dealers all over the country. Or there are a few nice used ones about, a quicker option. Had mine a year now, still a bit undecided whether to keep or move on or a little mod’ing

    Nikon D850 worth it over an D810?

    Thanks for the feedback.... I don’t do video, if I did I’d use my iPhone 12pro I guess. Anyway pulled the trigger on a D810. Seller listed as very well looked after, it does look good in the picture and used mainly in doors. It does have 100k shutter counter, so half life, not that is likely to...

    Nikon D850 worth it over an D810?

    Hi Kei, it may have been yourself or one of the other regulars who posted some shots when they first got the 810, I remember being impressed with how much shadow detail could be pulled out. (Just been offered a clean but used 810 for £650, that's hard to ignore) Used the camera comparison...

    Nikon D850 worth it over an D810?

    So a quick search on popular national store for used prices 850 £1800 780 £1600 810 £900 750 £700 The 810 still looks to be the best VFM, I guess the 780 is appealing for it's new tech and features hence it's holding strong used. 750 looks worst VFM, just buy an 810?

    Nikon D850 worth it over an D810?

    What crop factor? they both full frame.... Not seeing any advantage to go mirrorless, don't need the high frame rates, plus I like a larger camera to hold. A 750 or 780 does look another tempting option, thanks for the heads up. My thought was if making a change go for the most amount of...

    Nikon D850 worth it over an D810?

    A lot of noise !!! never read or heard that before, Nikon seem to have very low noise for several generations now I though? Ken Rockwell review is saying how good it was at even 10,000

    Nikon D850 worth it over an D810?

    Having an itch to return to a FF sensor, currently have a D7200, not that is anything wrong with it. So I'm looking online and see D810 can be had for around 7-800 pounds. Which seems very reasonable for such a capable camera. Then you see used D850, which used appears to be an additional...
