My mate's wife had an IS220 diesel as a compnay car and trust me it was the biggest load of crap ever, four turbochargers (three in one year), two cylinder heads (in one year.)
She's now been lumbered with an auto Saab 93 Aero.
That's my car (first post on page 2.) I for one wasn't a fan of the standard wheels to start with and would've preferred a set of black speedlines, but within a day or so of owning it, I realised it would've been too much black.
I also thought the Cup wheels would be easier to clean than the...
Or you could download Handbrake onto your computer, convert the DVD to MKV or MP4, stick it on a USB stick and then watch it through your PS3. I've done that with a few of my Region 1 DVDs as the Sony DVD/HD recorder I have now isn't region free like my old Sony DVD player was.
The Milltek I had fitted to my old 182 was fine and it looked a lot better after a year spent fitted to the car than what the Blueflame system it replaced did.
My dad bought a 57 plate A3 Sportback a few weeks back 2.0 diesel, 170 version and Quattro. S- line with full leather and 18" wheels. He's really happy with - I've borrowed it a couple of times and goes really well. Just sounds like a bag of nails when it's idling!
From memory those Schnitzer badges are ridiculously expensive to buy new, something like £120 each? If I am right fleabay them, obviously if you do decide to remove them.
Yeh the wheels have really grown on me since I picked it up and now it's lower they look even better. I was toying with getting them painted black, but I am not sure whether it would be overkill on the black theme.
The KWs make it handle better and I'd recommend them to anyone - Just got to get...
Got the KW Variant 1 coilovers that were previously on my R27 fitted to my 200 today by Rentech in Portsmouth, today.
They had to do a slight adjustment to the bushes on the rear shocks, but nothing major. Car looks a helluva lot better now sat on the lower set up.
The way the car looks is...
I dropped a line at steve@rsport seeing if he was interested in my R27 and he said he needed to sell his two LY R27s first. As for the Saab I was very close to doing a deal, but the trade in offered to me was too low and the car I really wanted had been sold the day before (it had a few Hirsch...
I've got Variant 1 KWs on my R27. Think I might get the wheels done in gloss black then! Have to admit I have seen them in the flesh in gloss black on a black Megane 250, albeit 18" wheels and and it did look really good.
