have I modified the wrong car?

People only seem interested in the HDi cos they can "map to stage 2 innit wiv fmic" and it's cheap to insure and run. So basically everyone is a tight bastard!

Don't think it's so much that as the fact that these are cheap old cars that appeal to young lads for the most part. If they can have the speed of a '6 with 60mpg rather than 35mpg, and dirt cheap insurance (because they usually don't declare mods) for the sake of £500 on a clutch, FMIC and map, they will. To be honest, I'd find it hard to justify a '6 knowing that my mate gets through less fuel in his 220bhp 328i than he did in his Rallye...
