  4. Not much in it mate really..... stick to the right & you are winning 8) I found it hard to tell when swapping from Swiss to Italian Roads & vice versa - its all the same!! take both buddy.... ATMs are all over but its nice to have some wedge on you at all times innit?? I used my CC for the fuel though. I had no worries with my red rears but that is not to say that some coppers wont like them (just like at home then!!) :lol: But that is 2 yrs on trot ive been with no sweat. A mate had VERY red rears and still got no bother. If its something that will nag at you then dont run the risk. RE plates: I had an offical bloke a bit miffed at me in 2008 for having D band plates on in the ring car park.... all was well because I had GB ones which id driven in on. 2009 I simply put a sticker over the D on my plate & all was good :D

    BBS ch 17x8"

    my winters are 8" and catch sometimes on the front. the guy I bought them from never had this so it may be down to suspension setup too. Like Corozin I plan to have the lip rolled to cure this as even 7.5s catch on tracks.
  7. nice wheels mate - I think they will make the C look hard as nails!! 8)
  8. all i did this year was: drop the oil new filter check brake pads next time ill also be: inspecting all suspension bushes etc. Pack: hi viz bulbs triangle & credit card!! Out of 4 cars (3 were Cs) the only trouble we had was loose wheel (on mine - not good) and a wishbone bush failed on my mates. they all were worked hard up some pretty steep hills in the Alps/ round North Loop etc etc but did pretty well :clap: apart from that - just enjoy cos its a right laugh!! :lol: :lol:
  9. thanks to E38 & ebay the word "Rare" makes me cringe!!! Even when talking about my car if someone says "oooh they are quite rare arent they?" I feel like nutting them!! :lol: :lol:
  10. best run of the day was 221bhp (corrected) Standard exhaust, with cat. Paper filter. no other mods at all. It did a run with a BMC.... sounded lovely but made no change..... Ive since added a Carbonio induction kit & even if it makes no power change im happy cos it sounds like heaven!! Fair play to your brake man... I am sorted like but was keen to know how you found him. If its a mate than no worries :wink: A mate of a mate is doing some for me. Got the message today that they are in CAD and coming on well :D Where did you source your hoses?
  11. if only they did roof strips :D
  12. erm good one...... i really cant remember but its the one that looks like this: 1995 ish??
  13. mine did a run on the rollers with cams & before map..... not much less power but not as smooth a profile IIRC. Mine was done @ Stealth & im VERY happy still. By far the best mod..... although coilies & ARBs & strut all in one w/e was smile provocing too :D are your brakes on yet?? who did ur carriers?? Hope to see your car some day buddy 8)
  14. I have Passat rear on mine mate. Grab the mech while you are down the scrappy, save a few quid & delock it while you are at it 8)
  15. Im not telling you!!! Only kidding mukka. Ive plenty to be doing when Im back (4 weeks till I fly - yes!!) bought: Steering Wheel, Audioscapes, propper Gucci bonnet stay (off my pa for crimbo) Brembos (still need carriers) and maybe a milltek :clap: :clap: Cant wait man 8) Are you going to map it when you have the head on? Mine is sooooo much smoother than before & is sharper too :D
  16. Elsecar meet mate get yourself down. Im from Royston so only down the way :D
  17. wait a minute!! Mystic Blue? Big Fat Brembos? SP 263 cams?? SNAP!! :lol: :lol: Mate the cams are very very good.... enjoy :D
  18. was just going to complain at you then Jon but you covered yourself well!! :lol:
  19. Oil rich Arabs own 1/2 of the world so im sure they are not too nervy!
  20. Im currently living in Amman where there are a few Gulf billionaires kicking about & believe me you are bang on!! Flash is king in Arabia.....
  21. Barnsley is littered with Storms now !! :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol: You ever heard of Swifts in Carlton?? I recommend them for servicing and general work you may want doing...... dont have the number to hand but id look them up mate 8) Oh welcome to the forum & Lupo wipers will not disappoint :clap:
  22. Id expect no increase to be honest. then if you get a bit then fair play and big smiles. As said it will be lighter.... If you get a hi flow cat this will help too. My mind was made up after going out in Wendys VR with milltek cat back - sounds lovely!! :luvlove:
