    Giulia Quadrifoglio new garage queen?

    To avoid the mega Alfa depreciation by buying a rock solid BMW i guess 😂 I love these, mega unhappy they arent £12k by now.

    Good spec laptop for around £300 - £400

    Work made the decision to replace my £2k Dell laptop (albeit 5 years old) with this heap of sh1te recently. It was like selling a Ferrari to buy a Rover Montego. Luckily i then bought the Dell for £50 😂

    Sensible Car. e92 330d.

    So yesterday i got everything in place for my XHP Flashtool ... Took 40 mins to back up the car, 15 mins to upload the editing software, then 5 for the actual flash. In reality, as i dont have a battery pack/trickle charger, i had to drive around in the snow/slush between each step to get the...

    Sensible Car. e92 330d.

    I always have issues with his rims tbh, the front offsets are always slightly wrong, i.e. wider to give the look of spacerz, which annoy me. That & fitting M359/CSL wheels to a 330d just makes me shudder lol. SME Asset Finance (predominantly software/IT), so still feeling the pinch really as...

    Irrespective of mine or others love for the wood, this car is still being awesome :up: Back home to Cornwall & back last week at 42 mpg, around town has dropped to 34 or so, but i still fill it up so rarely compared to the RS3/M3 i dont really care 😂 Am getting itchy feet though...

    Sensible Car. e92 330d.

    Apparently its an incredibly thin veneer of wood thats stuck onto plastic trim & lacquered ... Did you rip out the 2 cylinders that appear to be missing from your engine bay as well? :kissingheart: Christ no. That wrapped carbon sh1t is even worse than my plastic wood lol. I just didnt like...

    Untitled by Sir_Dave, on Flickr I bought this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAINTED-COLOR-E92-BMW-2DR-COUPE-M3-LOOK-TRUNK-REAR-SPOILER-300-WHITE-335i-/371859375724 Got stung for import duty, so it was £75 all in. Took far less time than SSDD, who probably order it from the same place 😂

    Oh now this does look nice. Very subtle, but lovely all the same! Assume it has the sports exhaust if you're saying it sounds epic?

    Sensible Car. e92 330d.

    Buy it anyway, it looks awesome in white!! 5 series are great cars (F10 onwards anyways), but they are simply huuuuuuge. And i feel like a 45 year old with 2 kids when driving one. The 6GC however ...

    Sensible Car. e92 330d.

    The e92's seem to have a massive fuel tank as well (certainly compared to my M135i & RS3), so i'm sure that helps to give the better range as well. Mines averaged mid 30's around town (40's on longer runs), whereas the RS3 was doing high teens/twenties in the same usage giving about 230-260...

    Another MCS. The track day toy.

    Aaaaaand its gone. Untitled by Sir_Dave, on Flickr Sarah & i were a little sad to be honest, had some great times in it in the past 3.5 years and it had been in the family for over 10! Luckily the new owner is a proper petrol head & will carry on to use it for what it was built for, track...

    Couple of little updates on this now. Wires switched in the steering wheel so that the paddles work correctly now - way way better!! Untitled by Sir_Dave, on Flickr Lip spoiler fitted, although the pictures are fairly bad so it doesn't really show it 😂 Would take another one now, but...

    Another MCS. The track day toy.

    It is, but i cant justify it with all the other things that i need money for at the moment ... weddings in the Maldives aren't cheap 😂 Nah, f*ck that, Porsche is mega. Mini is being collected on Sunday :up:

    Toyo T1R- tyres for track?

    My theory is always that if you can drive fast & hone your skill on T1R’s (or similar), you always run rings around everyone who has “grown up on R888s” when you progress to a stickier tyre. Less grip also allows you to find the weak point in a chassis (& driver) far easier. As an aside, its...

    Another MCS. The track day toy.

    So, possibly the end of an era, i've taken a holding deposit on the Mini :cry: A chap saw it on M3cutters (as per the R56 fJCW), was looking to build an R53 trackcar and is coming to view it next week. Its not something i ever thought id do, but without off-road storage, i simply cant justify...

    The life of... SharkyUK's Trophy

    Just read all the updates & really dont know what to say. Other than, when it does actually finally work, just sell the f*cking thing, its a boosted Clio, it will break as soon as you start to use it in any way properly. They all do. The only one that doesn't fail all the time is the Trophy...
