I have also found a genuine set of csl wheels with michelin pilot 2 with 7mm tread and he will deliver to me in person so no arguing about marks chips kerbing ect.I should be trying to save some money after buying the GTI ,and still having the mini cooper ,But if they are as mint and 7mm i will have them on my e90 .

There saems to be some confusion with whos car is whos at ours now a days. My wifes x5 and it was my mini and we swapped as she loved the mini i found the x5 to big and bought the e90 ,Now she said my bmw and its your mini so i have bought the Gti will it change again

I think you will have most of the fun in a GTI that you would of had in the 135i and save about £6 to 8k in depreciation over 3 yrs. It will be a great car and the mark 6 will not have a GTI out until propably end of next yr. & will it be to grown up and less fun.

I think the GTI would be great and if it was my wifes I would be driving it as much as I could. When you get the car keep in nicely sealed or waxed and the car will look really shiny and bright. Are red Fabia hardly shows the dirt compared to my black and I would have another red car no question.
