Thanks mate!
Should have! You'd be the same as me though as you also suffer from lanky b*stard syndrome. ;)
Summed it up, bay parking in tight spaces is a no no...
Thanks :)
Thanks again... See below, basically being a hooligan :evil: It's rather swift off the line and the acceleration...
Couple of Griffins, no text lol. Put the "vee" back on the front grill as it looked empty.
Tyres are very good. Grip well in the dry and with 6mm+ of tread remaining the wet weather performance is not bad, but I never push on in the wet. Standing water is just about acceptable (not sure if this...
Thanks mate. Pocket sized super car. Overwhelmed by its capability so far.
Thank you +1
FLOL at Pleb... That word needs to be used more in my life.
I am very sorry, I honestly didn't intend it to turn into a hoon but once I got going I couldn't stop. Turns out it takes quite a lot of...
No intention of any more low's. Loving my arch gap lol. Clears speed bumps easier than the Clio used to! Rims were there when I bought it, but 16/17combo is almost an essential mod, handling is out of this world, so go-kart esque :D
Cheers.
Fire away mate, I don't claim to be an expert but...
Went out for a drive tonight with the full intention of taking some photos, got completely sidetracked and was out for over an hour and a half scaring myself sh*tless round corners and playing "Elevens" on deserted country lanes.
<3 this car in the dry.
Anyway, after a rather sweaty hour and a...
Another useful insight, cheers Chris. The case builds yet more for the BMW when I start my new commute in October. As much as I truly love driving the current steed I have to admit I was slightly blinkered by the performance when I bought it. That and the fact that (in winter especially) I'd...
^ That one above looks mint with the facelift lights.
I've been looking at these all day as a potential VX replacement. I just don't think I can put myself through the depreciation (and sanity) of 18k miles a year. Instead, something comfortable, German and with an extra two cylinders might fit...
Dr Jekyll on here (Mark) Uses a spray shop in Essex that mixed him up a few rattle cans of Black Gold and he speaks very highly of them. Granted that's on the other side of the country but there is always the possibility they may offer postage. May be worth a PM if nothing comes up closer.

There you go. Could be worth a look in.
Belts done in Feb with dephaser, good mods. This is the one I had in mind on my earlier post but when checked it had been withdrawn from sale. Downside is...
Oh dear.
Two crucial observations, does the interior double as a homeless shelter at the weekend? And, is the term "F430" written onto the wing mirrors in chalk?
It's really not been an easy ride has it! I have no idea of personal circumstances but what on earth is possessing you to sell this must be very significant. Simply madness. You deserve to drive it and enjoy it after all this time. Go and show it off everywhere, it's a credit to the hard...
