Leave it fully inserted for 5-10 seconds once you've finished for the drips to drip through...I honestly can't say I've had a problem with that at all.

Agreed. Is your mate trying to actually sell his car...or his moody photography skillz?

I've been using this for the last couple of years, very happy with it... http://www.serif.com/movieplus/

Between 5-6k rpm it's like swarming angry wasps. Love it.

It's based on the lower body-coloured bumper-trim looking out of place. I've always thought it would have looked better painted or left black. Glad you're liking it Matthew. Your comments have saved me the bother of writing a one-year 18,000 mile write-up as I could/would have written what you...

Numbered? Its days finished a year ago didn't it when Renault released the 200T GT model for over £20k (that mistakenly had an R.S. badge fitted to the front grille)?

Ooops LOL. It was a looooong time before I could look the rear of my ST with feeling a bit sad.

Have you still not grown to like the ST's arse? Took me a solid six months minimum before I didn't think WTF!? Now I get along with it just fine.

Re: 1M Akrapovic Not a waste as such, more a missed opportunity to experience those moments of joy an awful lot more. Regardless, you're in a nice position to have such a motor for pleasure only!

Re: 1M Akrapovic I've no idea how you can do so few miles! Surely that defeats the object of owning something so special? I'd do 100 miles at a minimum every single time I pressed the start button (assuming it has one?)!

Re: 1M Akrapovic Good choice on the pipe. Has the steering wheel stayed looking good? How many miles have you covered in it now?

Re: 1M Akrapovic Just no. If it could have carried it off without you looking like a prat BMW would have supplied something noisier as standard. OEM all the way.

Admittedly this was on a different day and with different conditions, but it's not far off... http://youtu.be/qKJ0eNHu5vk

Oh dear. That's embarrassing. I'm so glad I went Ford a year ago.

I've no idea at all on that one!

Aye, goes hand-in-hand with the usual "I had to swerve into a ditch as a car was head-on on my side of the road...but they never stopped!". Can't see that wheel failing without at least some provocation.

I like the colour...but it's a shame there's no metallic edge to it. Flat paint just doesn't work IMO. Lovely all the same!

LOL, I'll feel 33 all over again.

Small bump here...my Nilfisk Centenial lost pressure so I went and picked up a Karcher K4 Compact from Homebase. Works well enough...but only comes with a 6m hose...or so I thought and so the box says. The one I got actually came with a 9m hose despite what the box says. So if anyone's...

You have an OBD socket on it still? If so I can log/film while you're out and about.

You have a passenger seat in this Jon? I can't do the day in August but am up for a few laps if you do?

Is that the same twin-exhaust from a decade ago?!?!

They're proper cool to follow around dusk time - you see the turbo/exhaust glowing orange from behind. I really like them.

Oooh, not the best start to brand new BMW ownership Dave! At least they're responsive. With a few more miles under your belt how are you finding the gearbox now?

He he he. Why did everyone else insist on compromising their entry to the main straight? The momentum you had by comparison was spot on.

Just like the rev counter I think it's whatever they have in the bin at the time. I'd imagine they substituted the Zetec ones when the spotty ones were on backorder

I've only just watched this, nice nice nice nice nice...I started rocking with you behind that GT-R LOL Kept him honest, good work sir!

You're not alone. I've had months pass since I was last out on track and I still feel and think exactly the same. Seeing as it's been really warm the last few days at every chance I've given it a proper bootfull out of low speed turns to try and get it to wash wide or at least get out a shape a...

Work-in-progress. Gave it its first hand clean today for about 6 months. :o You can see how the sun really brings the colour out. Love it.

LOL at 8:16 to 8:25. Even after almost a year in mine I still get that exact same feeling regularly...shaking of the head in disbelief! I noticed in your pics Matthew that they're now sticking Zetec S pedals on for new builds...mine are covered in rubber polka-dots! I'd much prefer a plain...
