And does it sound different when you give it the beans? Stage 1 map deffo helps too.

Love those style exhausts. Looks really good. Would love one of those for my tdi. The black grill is always a winner too. I'm planning on trying that myself this long weekend although I'm sure ill balls it up lol

lol Benzy I just finished painting mine as well.
Bought a paint from halfrauds which was a nightmare to apply.
Even after 3 coats didn't cover it how it should so probably tomorrow will have to give it another one.

Had a nice spirited drive back along the empty roads this morning after dropping family at East Midlands Airport! Gotta love early morning on a bank holiday as everyone is in bed hungover!:D

Driving back from Wales down the 55 after a Mountain Bike ride yesterday with few mates... Going through a 50mph section and the next thing i see in my mirrors are the blue lights of a BWM Police car (he clocked me doing 71)... Pulled up had a nice chat with the office in his patrol car, breathe tested (blew 0), then he gave 3 points and a £60 fine... So not a good day so far... :(

Do the speed awareness coure, costs more but no points, so no hike in insurance costs!
