@Arnie Fantastic website! I have been looking at cars all day and things like Golf R's are highly likely to have been in an accident etc. I came across a car KU15 NFR and it says it has been to the auctions twice yet it's HPI clear!!! If you could provide photos that would be great, i'm just...

Well done for getting it sorted! So nerve racking when you go for the first start!

Not that bad, i had a look earlier today there was a nice one on eBay for 8.5k. If you compare it to DC2 values they are not bad!

A good body shop will have a gun (i think its a spectral analysis gun) which they can put on various panels of the car and it will analysis the paint. It will then base the formula they mix the paint to so it matches 100% Other body shops may do spray out cards and check the match.

Yer I saw that, maybe the contrast ratio could be a bit better. Not sure what the colour coverage is like. Looks like a nice monitor tho.

The problem America has is that they have lots of ties with the Chinese government and security forces.

Really? You can get like 80mb+ i have seen on my phone with 4G that's waaay faster then anything on 3G.

Its actually really hard to find a decent 1080p 60hz IPS 27inch screen lol I have just spend 15 ish mins and didn't find much.

What size do you want? What resolution do you play at? Do you need any adaptive sync technology?

Yes my thoughts exactly, there are still parts of the UK where you can't get 3G! They should make sure they have 100% coverage before moving onto the next big thing IMO.

Huawei have been allowed to roll out their 5g infrastructure but they are only allowed to be part of the edge network rather than the core due to the security concerns.

I would go for IPS every time. You would be hard pushed to notice the difference between 1ms and 5ms unless you're some mad pro gamer.

Yer as others have said probably best to let the technology and the infrastructure mature. The prices of contracts will probably go up, but once it becomes the norm then they should be the usual cost.

Ok so now I'm confused lol. I have seen some cars with a black cover that are also facelift. So from what I understand any facelift z4 3.0 will be an si?

@Rob that's what I thought. So this car is advertised as an si but it has the silver cover so it's not got the right engine? I just found a great car on Auto Trader. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201903125818996?atmobcid=soc3

Yer you are right, however they both share the same engine codes according to wiki, just different power. So maybe someone could pass off a 2006 with a 3.0 lower powered engine as an si by just sticking the badges on if that makes sense.

@dann2707 how do you tell the difference between an si engine and none si. They are both n52b30, I'm worried about the potential of picking up a 2006 and someone just sticking the wing badge on.

A couple a weeks ago a friend of mine had an edition 1 for a few days which was tuned, the exhaust its just hilarious.

Easy way to test, start the car hold revs at 2k, put a multimeter on the battery. If its anything less than 14V then alternator is dead/dying.

I would start by taking one plug of each injector at a time and see if the engine note changes. If you get to the cylinder with the missfire, remove the plug and nothing happens then you could have a problem with the wiring or the injector. You have had new injectors and you mentioned it went...

I know @Kev@KAM has done some great CAD work, not sure if he would be able to help.

Have you checked the wiring to the injectors?

I wouldn't recommend a TV unless it has really low input latency less than 30ms I think is classed as low for a TV but most gaming monitors are 1ms. Especially if your playing fps etc. I hate my current TV for that!

@andy_con

Have you read the engine codes?

Ktec cars are overpriced IMO

Yer it's always best to drive a few different ones so you can get a feel and pick up any potential issues with some. So long as it's been maintained then you should be all good :)

Remember there are plenty about so don't rush into buying the first one unless it's perfect!

I think for a first time effort Hyundai have done really well. Its not a car to take on the civic type r or maybe even the megane, but compared to something like a golf it destroys it.
