Deffo go for the 5 spokes. They suit it really well.

Get yourself in a test drive of someone who's got one already. I'd really consider keeping it NA. If it's more speed and power you are after then get a different car in my opinion. I always think they would've came out the factories as turbos if it was meant to be.

Got mugged off years back when I bought a cat pipe from them, sold it to me for £240 and I wasn't too clued up back then, turns out the flange was squashed on it before I even had it fitted. Few people local I know have had issues there too when taking their cars for diagnosis and being...

Please tell me when you say local RS garage you aren't referring to four ashes?!

As Davo has just said. Those steps are literally what happens. Keep it standard and enjoy it for what it was meant to be

Good video Mark! You have done well considering it's your first attempt. Excuse my ignorance though but what's the idea behind the parts on the course where you have to come to a stop?

No worries mate. If I was at home I'd take a pic to show you. I am sure there are pics on this thread anyway?

I think you are over complicating it a bit to be honest. You need to get the olive joint chopped off, then have a piece of pipe approx 6-7 inches welded on to be used as a sleeve joint onto the centre section. I can't remember if my but of pipe went over or under the centre pipe, I don't...

I drive mine every other week to work due to car sharing. I loathe the loud yozza exhaust and stiff suspension on the commute. The minute I step on it down a B road though it soon comes back to me why I still have this car. You'll struggle to find a replacement which will scratch the same itch imo

I know the feeling mate. Don't shift it on. If it's running sweet now then just enjoy it.

Don't get selling up mate. You will regret it.

Car will pass MOT fine as long as no lights are on dash for air bags etc. And Horn needs to function

Go for the stalk option. A lot have had issues with cables on steering wheel and horn buttons due to cables snagging when turning wheel. The phase 1 stalk is plug and play. I'm sure you could buy them new at one point from Ktec? Dunno how much though.

I had the cruise control cables which I just disconnected. That was all though

Ye I fitted a phase 1 stalk to mine. Couldn't tell you what boss I have though. I used resistors for the airbag but have since had it switched off properly using CLIP

That's mental money!

Great news Andy!!

Those wheels are phenomenal

Seems a shame doesn't it.

Some of the states of those cars 😳 The bird s**t recaros as well 🤣🤣🤣 I recognised the silver phase1 with the gripper diff....

Lol at not making the news 🤣

Decent video Mark. I know exactly what you mean regarding the feel not inspiring the driver that the car handles well when it actually does.

I don't see many V8 S models. They normally are the R model whenever I see them about. Love these cars though! Sound incredible too

Don't you think the AWD V8 which they do now will be better and more use able?

A poll?!

I'd go further out and have a bit of a road trip to Welsh coast. I used to love the drive round the mountains on the way to Aberystwyth 2 hours or so to get there, have a mooch and coffee and have a drive back. The roads round by us are decent but they aren't decent stretches. Bridgnorth...

Came in here thinking they'd be some mention on VR p**n. 😂😉

I admit when I did Donny it was much more fun than when I have done Llandow, Bedford or Blyton. I'd say I enjoyed Llandow more than Bedford, that back straight at Bedford in a clio is certainly dull! 🤣 In a 140i I imagine it'll be over quite quick though

No track is dull. Plus I find it entertaining watching Mark push some decent machinery around the track because he knows it so well. It catches loads of people out.

Had mine 8 years now and spent loads on it as you can imagine. It needs belts doing on it again as well 😔
