Hope this channel gets bigger. You really deserve it. Zhanks for the imsights on the m2 comp. Im still choosing between m2 comp, m140i non opf and rs3 sedan non opf
@@sasabojic7329 I chose the M2 Competition with full M Performance custom parts (including LED Performance wheel) and i am just in awe on how this car drives. I love the rs3 which is the better daily for sure (owned one myself) but the m2 is the far more capable car when it comes to dynamics.
It means otto particulate filter and is responsible for cleaning of the exhaust gases. But the opf makes the car much quieter as it is a huge filter that comes after the cats.
I'm debating on the mach 1 or m2 competition but I probably going to go with the bmw M2 competition even though I love mustangs too but I love how bmw driving experience is though
It would be good to see more manual performance cars considering there were/are a few that can come in a manual. I know it’s not the norm or the fastest but some people would want to seek out a manual
Any chance you can review a pre OPF Mk3 TT RS as you seemed to like the TTS? I value your opinion a lot, your videos are super informative showings all aspects of the car that others just don’t show. I was thinking on getting a TTS but thankfully didn’t on the fact as you showed the 6 speed DCT was sat at quite high revs at motorway cruising speeds. I’d have never found that out elsewhere other than a proper test drive that some garages seem be reluctant in doing.
I bought the older LCI version with the N55 specifically because lord have mercy the sound with a sports cat and m-perf exhaust is heaven. The comp is a brilliant car but the S55 just sounds so crap. Totally agree with the seats though, if I find a spare set of comp seats at a good price, they are getting changed.
@@viacom2000 it absolutely is to do with the S55. You can straight pipe it and it still sounds like a raspy bag of crap. Equal length mid pipe still bad. I'm sorry dude but it's not emissions related. You're right that they suffer with OPFs etc which makes it worse but even with mods the S55 just isn't a nice sounding engine. M3/4 are the same because of it. Which as stated is why I bought the N55 over it. Far more ear enjoyment
in stock form it’s a bit quicker, feels almost as fast as a stage 1 M140i. You only feel the power at the top of the rev band though. Down low they feel the same.
@@SB-pn3hfman I had a friend say he was getting 30mpg in a 2015 M3 with a manual and my M2c manual is getting the same as you, 20. My goodness it’s such a good time tho!
Just to clarify for those watching.. pretty sure he was mistakenly looking at the avg speed, not mpg. After filling up I instantly forget about the money in the tank and still can’t keep my foot out the gas! 😂
The only M2 video where you can get a feeling of what is it really like to drive this car. Great review.
Those tight UK roads with blind turns. I will never miss them.
My heart always skips a beat whenever I see this mini beast ❤
I have the same car in same colour as this video, this thing is so good for cardio 🥰🥰😂
Had mine for 2 years, use it everyday and is a blast to drive. Love it.
How is the reliability?
@@Legacy995 Had nothing go wrong with it at all. Apart from rear indicator lights which were replaced under warranty.
what did u get after?
I have the same car it’s absolutely gorgeous to drive, I still giggle when the rear starts coming out, novelty will never wear of 🙌🙌

It’s not a small car when it comes to width, it uses the M4 rear axle. There is only about 16mm in it between the M2c and M4.
It is a wide car.
Life is short, sell m140i and upgrade to a proper m2 comp
M2 comp or M2 OG.. In terms of sound, N55 is better. Dont know what to do.
I did crazy how much I love the m2 comp so connected to the road it really is a special car
This is what I’m planning to do this year hahaha
@@adanali0-01get the comp. Trust me. This car is amazing

What does opf mean in this context?
It means otto particulate filter and is responsible for cleaning of the exhaust gases. But the opf makes the car much quieter as it is a huge filter that comes after the cats.
@@Undercover1987 oh I see. Can you legally remove such filter or are you skirting some regulation? Thanks
Damn,,, I want one now!! As always great 'real world' review👍

M2C is my dream car.
Still out of my price range currently.

will add to the list. Glad you like the reviews!
Another great vid! Would you replace the M140i for it though??
Hard to say really, the 140i is still the best daily driver of the 2 but i prefer driving the M2. I’d just have both if i could haha.
No. I have both the M2 Competition in hockenheim silver and a M1 40i in Alpine white. Love both of them.

FInally the best review ever best content really love it
I drove an F80 M3 comp and I thought the seating position was too high too. I understand why people lower these cars.
Have to agree, the M2comp is a better drivers car than the M3, to me it felt like e46 M3 dimension wise and very connected to driver imput❤❤
These videos are too good ngl
My car goal in next year or so 🤞🤞
I have it after, you will not regret it! Most fun car and I’m always looking for an excuse to drive it
How does this compare to speed with the m140i? would you say speed wise it’s worth the extra money? Obviously it handles better than the 140i
in stock form it’s a bit quicker, feels almost as fast as a stage 1 M140i. You only feel the power at the top of the rev band though. Down low they feel the same.
This or a RS3?
I want a 240i next.
Great review, made me want to buy one 😂
I'd love this car. Seen it on Auto Trader - still available? Might be interested if I can get a good part ex ;)
Hi there, can you contact us to discuss?
Hi, i love your channel so much can you pls review and pov drive a bmw f10 520d if you can please it would mean so much to me i am a supporter thanks❤
How about crank hub issue ?
Its really not a problem. Only when you are going to tune it to stage2. But keep it stock it has already enough power😅
i'm torn between one of these or a GR yaris .. please help!! :P

Did this really go through 1/4 a tank in 25 mins!?
Yes, yes it did.
Which means it ain’t 35mpg. Mine has never seen 24… maybe 23 at best 😂
@@kevinmcgrady237funnily enough I got one after watching this and I’m at 20 and it’s only going down more hahaha
