Brilliant video Will, properly in depth. I’m in a certain position to swap my M140i for an M2C and this has really helped and very much swaying to make the move.
Thanks Ben!
A natural progression from the M140 too, you wont be disappointed 👊
Another great vid there Will mate 👌 👍 keep them coming
Thanks Andy!! Appreciate the kind words 👊🏼
Solid review mate, keep it up 👍. Especially relate to your track day affordability comments, have the same dilemma!
Thanks mate!
Tough dilemma ey...
Brilliant video had some problems with my M2 Comp recently but this video has made me fall back in love with it .BTW if you insure a Porsche with a company called Lockton they cover your car for track days .
Ah thats brill to hear Simon!
I also did not know that, so will make a note for future if i ever step into a Porsche. Thanks!
I recently bought an OG M3 (late 66 plate) with 25,800 miles in, in the same colour.
It's a keeper.
Edit : I came from an M140i too !
Great video buddy!!!
eyyyy thanks drift hooligan!
@@MrHCars hahahaa
Happy new year and great video! Despite not a huge M2 fan I certainly can see it does everything quite well, I think you should wrap it yellow! Then like you said in 18 months time get a 918 ;)
Thanks TTTD!!
Didn't spot that mistake when editing 😂😂 yes yes... stupid Porsche naming scheme, I meant 981 😏
enjoyed that one buddy - agree with the gap anywhere above £50k atm... interesting times - good problems 👍
Thanks mate!!
At least another year with our M2's, not a bad thing at all!
Owning an m2 comp myself. I’m definitely excited to watch this 👍🏾
Where are you from akash, mumbai?
wow, you may get bad feedback, but I love how brutally honest you are.. especially about paint coating .
Hi Will. Great vid. Falling back in love with my M2c watching through this! Your experience with having to tune down the exhaust noise for track…any vids where you elaborate on how you did so??
Thanks Awais and glad you are. Easy to get used to the car day-to-day and forget how good it is, i do it too!
Literally filming that video tomorrow, so will be the next upload 🤓
@@MrHCars look forward to it!
Normally i skip through videos with lotsa talking in it, for some reason i found everything you said very informative, great vid please keep it up...waiting on my M2comp delivery
Ah appreciate it Earl!
Glad you found it informative and congrats on the new whip! 🥳
I am in the same boat! Almost identical mileage on my M2C, also intend to keep it long term. Btw that two horns thingy when you lock the car - can be changed with bimmercode (and coded out). I use that a lot actually so was annoying to hear the horns all the time…
never knew about the preset buttons ,thanks
No worries, the more you know
I own an M2 LCI and agree with you on where to go next... These cars are such great value, it's hard to rationalise anything more price wise. I'm starting to get the itch for the next car but really don't know where I'd go next! Potential the new M3, older (non-modified, FSH) GT-R or an Alfa Gulia Q. All coming with higher monthlies and maintenance, but I doubt I'd look to the Lotus/Porsche route as someone who doesn't track the car.
Either way, whatever you get next will be a blast 👍
Tough decision right? The M2 is just so good in so many ways!
All good choices though & likewise I'm sure you'll love whichever choice you go for... but the M2 will always have a special place in our hearts!
Thanks KMD! 👊🏼
Enjoyed this Will and lots of food for thought. Your track point was very interesting tho not one I do. I’ve got an itch for a 6 pot cayman manual tho possibly a 981 but an early manual R8 is also of interest. Ultimately I’m with you that there is nothing obvious that’s in the new build space. Think I might use the 3rd year of ownership to do some of the mods you’ve went with (spoiler / splitter etc) and an alcantara covered wheel is up there. All the best with the channel in 2022, cheers, Kevin.
All good options and a good chance to continue enjoying the manuals whilst we still can.
Some mods will defo freshen up the car too and keep it enjoyable for a bit longer.
Appreciate the kind words Kevin, thanks! 👊🏼
@@MrHCars just re-watching and thinking about future vlogs. You may already be aware but the 4 year service will give you loose change out of £1k, if there is nothing else wrong, through BMW. Could be interesting noting you are out of warranty to do a price comparison with BMW main dealer, a BMW specialist using OE marked parts and a standard garage also using OE parts. Something to consider? Cheers, Kevin.
@@kevinmcg6747 that’s a really idea Kevin! Thanks and I’ll add that to my list… if the car is still around then 🤓
We shall see…
Was hoping you would comment on the M2C suspension, handling at higher speeds and bumpy roads
Great video! I'd say that this is the most in depth, detailed M2 review on UA-cam! Keep up high quality videos like this!
Thanks Zayni!
Quite a long one, I'll admit but didn't want to rip any detail out. Appreciate it!
Lots of good points you have made.
The manufacturers should have better deals on used cars.
It is cheaper to PCP a new car, so a used costs more per month!!!
Thanks!
You can finance through a broker like Charles & Dean tho. They’ll be able to beat manufacturers used finance rates 9/10.

Hi , I decided to take the plunge and chop my M2 comp in for the new M240i G42 in Brooklyn grey (hope I’m as happy with the new ride as I am with the current ride)
Nice one Darren! Congrats!
I know a few others who have done a the same.
M240i will be a brilliant daily with elements of our M2’s
@@MrHCars it gets great reviews and I’ll see what the new M2 is like when it comes out in the next year or 2 ….are you still looking at the new lotus ?
Keep up with your great vids buddy …..
@@darrenakrigg5978 still keeping my eye on the lotus, we’ll have to see when it ships.
Thanks mate, appreciate the kind words! 👊🏼
👏👏👏👏👏👏
would you ever consider swapping out for the new Supra Manual thats rumoured to come out this year?
That would be interesting. Still need to drive the Supra & need to see if the manual would come to the UK, since the manual M3/4 never came to the UK 😪
What's your milage allowance?
So keep or sell it and wait fir
The new M2 ???
Such an amazing detailed video, I absolutely love it!
Thanks C H!! Appreciate the support! 👊🏼
Changing the M2 for another albeit newer M2 limits your potential for different ownership experiences with other marques (which will give you opportunities for more content) . I’d use you current ride as you are, then change direction, get something different and enjoy the journey. The new M2 will be evolution rather revolution. Why spend another 20plus grand for more of the same even if it has a warranty? I’ve had Porsches, R8, BMWs etc all which have their own quirks. It’s part/of the fun of being a petrolhead / car enthusiast. (My 2p) AD
Exactly and completely agree mate!
Not got long left till our beloved engines are gone, need to exp them all asap!
You also talk about oem's what is meant by this?
All info would be greatly recived as i pick up my first M2C on wednesday,to replace my 2021 m135i xdrive
Oem just means it’s original from the factory. If I say something looks oem then I’m saying it looks original.
Congrats on the new M2c also!!🥳
@@MrHCars Cheers.I used to own an m135i 2015 model,but was duped by all the media hipe about all the gr8 things with the xdrive 135i,but couldn't get on with it.
No exhaust rumble,less power digital speedo,no cd player,& tinny sounding doors on clousure.
Can't wait to be getting back to a proper BMW
@@simonribbons7713 agreed. Slight step back there. The only m135/140 we’re brilliant and more like M cars!
@@MrHCars Exactly!! BMW's new M135i sounds like a Mini on start up,& i have to drive it in sport mode all the time,just to get some sort of exhaust burble.
how come your m2 comp doesn't have the cf side skirts? it's not standard on all of them?
It’s not standard. It’s all aftermarket installations
@@MrHCars oh wow i didn't know that! i just bought a used one and it has the side skirts and it looks so good with them!
@@steinway325 ye haha they’ll have been installed by the previous owner. Do look good tho! 🤌🏼
Every m engine in history has always had a flaw of some sort the s55 is the crank hub the e92 was rod bearings etc etc
Very true... Nothing yet from the S58 and hope it stays that way
Been reports of the s58 spinning crank hubs already anyway so be same worry as an s55
🥲 that's disappointing to hear...
Need to find out if BMW has actually created a better crank hub
A for effort on this one dude! Gets a TAB FAB from me! 🤣 Nice b roll too...
😂 Tab Fab, love it!!
Thanks dude!
Go for the m2 cs
Not a bad shout!
But I don’t see the point of replacing the Comp with the same car + some upgrades… for double the money🤷🏻♂️
you somtimes talk about og cars,what does that stand for ?
OG M2 means the non Competition M2
@@MrHCars thanks for clearing this up
All the info you need about an M2C in one place mate. Nice one 👍
Thanks Chris!
Enough to convince you to upgrade? 😉
You really need to just load a map on to this car. Missing out hugely. Its not slow stock but honestly once you run stage 1 for a week, you will never go back.
I have map switching and even CS power level feels broken in comparison.
Nice vid though! Had mine nearly 2 years but think i might actually keep it for a while. 👍🏻👍🏻
Ah i've no doubt it'll improve the car, just sadly don't want to risk it with the crank hub 😕
Thanks anyway RC! Here's to more time with the M2 🍻
9:43 is one of the many reasons to go with OG M2.. that exhaust sagging down is hideous... your rear diffusor has done a pretty solid job at hiding it but still
Sounds like you already kept it
