b****cks, your saying that its better for someone who has no idea about engines and no interest to look for technical specs and scribble it on a bit of paper to hand to the person they are trusting and PAYING to do that just for them?
if you provide a service for people you do exactly that...
as above, no way an engine rebuilder can know what the specs are for every engine he/she rebuilds, that's madness
what does surprise me is the blokes lack of willingness to research it himself, asking the customer to do it for him is a joke, the whole reason you pay someone to do it for you is...
a use? eh? they just demist when its frosty, same as the rear window does. the only real issue is the driver/passengers windows that doesn't so you still cant darn well see anyway!lol!
my OH is pretty much given up trying to tell me, the scrap on the drive just multiplies and the shed gets fuller but she seems to be quiet about it all at the moment.........I'm nervous
so epic mafs says that's 99k on the aftermarket map, and as far as I know engines untouched bar servicing/belts etc.
its about to have overhaul on the next 6k interval it 121k, belts, alternator, water pump, dephaser, clutch and gearbox overhaul
should be good for another 99k then :)
it is mate, it was still on when Luke sold it to me and I've not touched it
got to be a decent advert for Paul hasn't it? how many miles were on when you had it done, its sitting on 117k now :)
I've been before few years back in the turbo and pulled 270 odd I think it was that day, and the car did a 12 second pass again at pod not long after so I think their rollers read a little bit pessimistic, so tbh yours is probably making standard if not bit more tommy lad
Jacob, in like flint...
I own a phase 2, and even in epic RB colour its still not a patch on the phase 1 for looks. put is this way, I had my phase 1 for 2 years and didn't do a thing to how it looked, in fact I returned it to standard, the phase 2 I keep modifying because I don't like the way it looks, I just love the...
mine wont get washed till the spring now, I cba to do it and no way are the local 'best hand job in derbyshire' jetwash shack getting there mitts on it with the amount of road grime and salt to swirl into my paintwork!lol!
easy mistake to make this, if you look very carefully, and mean you have to know what your on about to spot this, but really look and you'll notice that its actually a slightly lower spec road version of the 3 series.
