Excellent, i'll give it a go later on.
How do I back the phone up though ? & what is over the air ?
(I told you i'm no good att his sort of thing) Thanks folks
I've just read an old thread on how to do it , I assume that it will elliminate the crap running process of the phone if I update it ??
I've never updated firmware on a phone before, so I don't really get what it does:o
If I update it will it just make it run a bit faster & stop it from...
Get the paperwork for it, asuming it's an rac trackstar one (most of them are these days) give them a call, it's £120.00 per year & I think something like £300.00 for lifetime.
The lifetime bit it a bit of a joke, as it only applies while you own the car (it's not transferable)

Have you ever had one/driven/been in one ?
The mk2 is better imo (yes i've been in them as well) but I prefer the front end of the mk1 & the fact that it was about 5k cheaper to buy than a mk2. I also like the fact that mines stupidly rare too:)
The mk1 is by no means shat though.
Ask the seller what size the bore of the pipe is (eg 2.5") If it's the same as yours it'll fit. My guess is that it'll be bigger than your standard one.
I'm in agreement with superfastdan - I too was overwhelmed with amount of info in that ad;)
Chris - do what you think is right, not what someone whose never even been in/driven one thinks (I know that some on here are speaking form experience - others aren't)
You could go & see that silver on & fall in love with it & buy it, then (as said) sell it next year & get a mk2, the good...
I did my front ones the other week in black hammerite smooth, they were easy to do & came out great.
I don't have the same calipers as you though. AP's ;)
One thing I forgot to say - finding a decent vee is a joke tbh (i cansay for mk2's though)
It took me two months. So many sounded good in the ads, yet when I called them up the owners never seemed to have a clue - the common line I got was "I've had it a few months, I only got it to say i'd had...
If I was looking for a mk1, i'd go & see that one.
People always say that you can get them for 10k now - yeah you can, but they'll be the sh*t ones with a lot of owners. In my experience you get what you pay for (I paid ore than that for mine) Mines a minter.
As for the handling, no probs at...
