Mini's sold. Looks like the Brabus is now too. Just the Jag to go.

Love it. Someone up here has just finished a home brew SC install on one. Make 280bhp. Which would be lovely.

Everything is backed up. Its just that some of it doesn't like running on windows 10. Finding a new unit with Win7 pro on it is also a ball ache. I could just fix the old PC but its getting on a bit. This day and age there should be a migration system for moving my backed up files and programs...

Why does this have to be such a ballache?

Ah well worth a try. Can I transfer the retro office software we have on the old machine too?

Right old PC was some Zoostorm thing. Running off a one month old SSD. New one is a little cheap lenovo. After a brief test this morning I think it is booting, but I don't have the drivers for the display card, ergo the black screen. I'll see if I can find the drivers for the Lenovo's card...

Hi all, I've got a Windows 7 machine with some business critical programs on it which needs to stay Windows 7. It's motherboard and a few other things are dead. So I've bought a new pc to let it live again, but it won't boot the original PC's hdd. I've adjusted the boot setting the in bios...

TBH mine make 397 totally standard!

APR don't have a kit for the RS3 that would give 100bhp, their RS3 map has been giving 30bhp. The S3 one gives nearly 90bhp though! TBF the only thing that did break on mine was the fuel pressure reg. Not the end of the world. If I'd have plugged it in myself it'd have been a £60 fix. It's...

Tbh it was recovered twice, since I was on a bypass the police had to be called to assist, then an Audi tech van came out. Then its had, fuel pump, pressure reg and fuel rail all fitted. Along with the Rennsport techs coming over to look at it. Good job for warranty's!

Fuel pressure regulator. New modified part its self was cheap but they also changed my fuel pump and fuel rail as a precaution. With the recovery, police assistance and parts and labour, the total bill was around £2800.

Its shiny clean. Looks weird. Kinda nice.

LOL I gave it hell. TBH is was an excellent car!

Looks who's back again:

Issue is the price differential between the standard car and the GP. Its already at 3.5:1 for a JCW vs GP. Thats the same kind of ratio between an M3 CS vs CSL. The CSL is far more special though.

I wasn't keeping it two more years to make another £500.

Yeah I paid £11500 for it with the other racaros. Sold the car with out the racaros for £12000 and the recaros for £1750. So £2250 net profit but I had it serviced for £250 so £2000 overall. Not bad considering I had 4000 awesome miles in it.

Sold this today. A 50 year old woman bought it to add to her Mini collection. She came in an Awesome JCW which was also for sale! I got £2000 more than it owed me. Top little investment.

7000 now mate.

100% If this was mapped, I'd be shitting bricks right now... Plus mapping on this would only get me another 20bhp so not worth it really.

His huge director dong.

Yeah it makes 343lb/ft from 1650rpm officially. Mine is closer to 355lb/ft at that point.

3000 @ 80 would do my nut in. I spend my life in the outside lane. I still feel the RS3 needs and 8th cog to do 80 at sub 2000 rpm.

On the upside I have the highest recorded average MPG for an RS3 in the UK!

There will be MY15 launch cars with higher mileage. Mine will probably be the highest mileage MY16 car at a guess. Its done 600 miles a week since collection.

LOL ok, Just to make you aware Mr Waite, the ECU in the car records and stores all peak parameters, so we can diagnose the root of issues which are deemed unusual. Your car indicated to us that the launch control function has being activated 32 times, while an activation doesn't indicate a...

Call from York Audi: Fuel rail and fuel pressure reg are both faulty. New parts coming from Germany along with some engineers from RennSport/Audi to try and work out what happened. Turns out my RS3 is one of the highest mileage 2016 customers cars out there. They were also surprised at my...

This ones on straight HP so yeah, optioning it up seemed to be a good idea.

Slightly deeper and louder. Few more crackles on un shifts. Really goes loud after 4krpm too. Still deciding if it and the magnetic dampers were worth £995 more though!
