Re: A Mini Adventure ... Ha ha, im sure it will, just in a slightly different way to the clio i think. Put together a little suspension shopping list this morning as it happens: AP Coilovers - was more than happy with them on the R32 & very similar to KV V1 imho Hardrace adjustable control...

Just buy a Trophy, then fit Sportlines, camber bolts, Whiteline Arb and CL5+ Front pads. You dont need anything else.

Re: A Mini Adventure ... Lol, i hadnt even fitted them, scraped as standard!!!

So basically anything with 'Race' in the title is poorly built and wont last? Oreca 'Race' exhaust, Spax 'Race' suspension, etc. I assume that NWP used to do 'Race' cambelts, TDF built 'Race' cars and Ktec manufacture their 'Race' engine looms then. What a load of pap, its fallen apart at the...

Re: A Mini Adventure ... lol. Went home to Cornwall, & the car scraped all the way down my parents drive, so i didnt see the point in keeping them. ​They've now graveled the drive. FFS.

Re: A Mini Adventure ... ​Sh1t tyres be gone!!! Had the Hankooks fitted yesterday afternoon and well, all i can say is wow, feels like a completely different car lol!!! Steering is lighter, it doesnt follow every ridge or bump in the road and even some of the interior rattles have gone. Win...

Car looked great last night when i collected the 888's Joe!! Looking forwards to watching this progress :)

Re: A Mini Adventure ... Mines a very early one, so no mpg gauge (for now anyways), but i reckon i'm doing about 30 overall. Its nowhere near as good as the 1*2, but a bit better than the R32. I'm not sure its a car you'd buy if you were worried about mpg, mainly as the whine is so addictive :o

Definitely!!! Glad to see its still being used properly ;)

Re: A Mini Adventure ... ​This is the problem lol. Unlike the clio, which is very good out the box, & so obscenely expensive to get power out of, i was always happy to just to the basic suspension/braking changes. The mini is so cheap to get decent power out of its almost rude not to, & the...

Re: A Mini Adventure ... I know, i know, just dont want to do everything at once. Nothing to look forwards to then ... although the temptation is strong. Runsh4ts now sold, Hankook V12 Evo's in the post from Camskill. Wahoo.

I emailed 1st Tickets to re-book our places (for 2014) last Thursday lol.

Re: A Mini Adventure ... Means to an end though. Whilst it would be lovely having a CSL on the driveway, it would still be a rented house in front of it. By keeping the mini, i get to buy the house.

Re: A Mini Adventure ... Just booked it in for the following work at Minicraft on 17th July. Wahoo: Supply & fit 15% Kavs pulley, belt & NGK plugs Supply & fit Powerflex front wishbone bushes Fit R56S calipers, Pagid 294mm discs, (tbc) pads, HEL braided lines f/r and some spaffy brake fluid...

Completely forgot to mention this earlier, but its probably as they made quite a few different Style 32's: http://felgenkatalog.auto-treff.com/?felge=320 which ones you get determine whether they look ok or not ...

People are buying the Cooksports as they are cheaper than the MF ones and go lower.

Sales of Goods Act. Get rid before your protection runs out lol

lol. I've had a few BMW's. Anyways, as i've been looking at e46's all morning, here's a picture of mine from last year. Note the lack of silly wheels.

Exactly. £3.5k is sort of fine if you are a 'long-term' car owner, but for someone who dips in, tries and then sells, like me (& Rich lol), having the potential for such bork is just mental. M3 was bad enough for me (although R32 was worse FFS), RS6/M5 no ta.

Very much so!! Probably the nicest 328i Sport ive seen tbh. Best exterior/interior colours, & its looks mint. I reckon u'll sell the ITR now ...

Gearbox rebuild Suspension replacement Read Ant's thread lol. Oh, & you bought the wrong model really, saloon is ftl ;)

You're mental. That is all.

Ending of that brought a tear to my eye tbh. RIP Allan.

Love it!!! Personally, i would have had a 240 years ago if Sarah didnt have a TT already. Thats why i sold my one so quickly lol. I've been saying this for years. The facelift ones, with the 's-line' suspension etc are really good cars!!! Not the last word in excitement, but as you've already...

Lol, you were very close Panda ;) Although i prefer a flipflop.

My write up will be next week now. End of month/quarter at work so mega busy!!! F*cking lol at Paul in full cammo for black ops though!!! Brilliant!! Gonna take one of these for Mike next year i think ...

That type of thing is simply avoided by using your common sense. Driving anywhere near what i call the 'council estate of campsites' i.e. Bleu Nord/Sud on Friday afternoon is asking for trouble, it would be like going for a nice Sunday drive through Syria. We stay in Houx, & yes, there is some...

lol, would be an even better picture if Chris was looking at the camera ;) Like this:

Is that a good thing? Last time i logged on to e46zone i thought i was on the Bradford cruizin for b1tchez & drugz forum. The wheels are terrible, your plans are terrible. Please sell the BMW and buy a vectra instead.

Failsport. Doing it properly since 2011. Norfbest. Stuck with tradition, went home early, again. Lol, no ball games.
