Oh dont worry, i've driven one enthusiastically ... a good friend had a ST155 ;)
Bought it for £10k as he wanted a cheaper to run car for the commute (instead of a 330), sold it after 2 years for £5k. I laughed at his depreciation-based high running cost failure.
Mostly as he's now bought...
Nah, i still cant bring myself to own a derv i dont think lol ... would make sense, but with the amount of miles i do, i just know that i'd find myself on an awesome deserted country road, in the middle of nowhere on business, and be in the sodding golf sdi or something. That would make me cry.
lol, bought it on the 6th October. Sold on 6th November, to Sarah's brother Richard's girlfriend as it happens. We met them in Cheltenham for a drink at the weekend & she fell in love with it there & then!! I'll be delivering it to Cardiff for her in 2 weeks.
M3 is always floating around...
Nah, TT's going in a couple of weeks, so will just plough up & down the M3 in the clio until i find something else.
Absolutely, no idea what to buy though lol, kinda running out of options tbh ...
Absolute bargain, considering these are £175 new.
Blue label so ok for MSV track days

Good deal for someone im sure
Fair enough, im just not a fan, id rather just gets wheels that give the correct offset from the start.
FYI the e30 4 stud BMW's use 4 x 100 PCD, with ET15 & centre bore of 57. With a spigot ring that would give you a direct fitment & similar offset to a ET38 with 20mm spacer - if thats what...
All looks very pretty Tom :cool:
Not so sure on the spacers though, i've never been a fan, see way too many failures to even consider them, especially for a track car.
lol @ all the comments.
I like the TT to be honest, it would rip a clio a new ar5sehole in the twisties as well i reckon, you just have no idea whats going on underneath all the grip!! Which isnt really a problem, until the grip runs out lol ... but having exactly the same car as your missus...
Now keeping the Trophy for ever, & done 3k this month in the TT.
As such, i need something more suitable to hero mileage/towing, ie a 330d.

Oh, well if we're all posting pictures of our Ed30's ;)
It needed a remap, coilovers, decent tyres, & most importantly a manual box.
Then it would have been a great car.
