Congrats! Welcome to V6 ownership. Interesting cars indeed. Look amazing, sound amazing, feel amazing. Not great for going fast but thats not the point is it?

Great price :smile:
Apec discs - really good quality replacements at a fraction of Renault prices :smile:

I use these discs on my R21 Quadra. It gets driven (consistently) far harder than any road V6 would ever be, it's far faster than most V6's and weighs more to boot. Last year it got punished around Spa, 'the Ring F1 and Nordschliefe, Blyton Park and Silverstone as well as a couple of hillclimbs and road use. They held up well.
However check the comparitive thickness of the material on each side of the vents. Some I know of have shown up with the friction material FAR too thin for use.

No whiter than white mate.When you get too say 4k you get a big kick up the ass,like the 5k kick in 172,then at 6k again.I dont like parking it anywhere thats the only downfall does get a lot of attention which i dont want.

Does it feel quicker than a 1*2?

Bet its weird turning round and having a v6 in your face.
Is it loud inside the car?
No its quiet tbh,when you do open her up it barks but the engine covers i should remove,they weigh a ton mate.Cant wait for the bmc ind kit to go on tbh.

So if the cover is off, the engine is literally behind your head?
Correct mate went food shopping other day bad mistake no room.Its getting machine polished next week will take me a good 2-3 days in stages then take her out for a blast,car has been checked over and zero issues found apart from tyres,im putting all new brakes on because if it gets bumped the parts are a nightmare too get hold of.

If you've bought a BMC - good buy btw - check out ColinG's fitting guide with silicone hoses on the V6 website... proper job! : )

It must be weird being able to check your oil dipstick while cruising down the M6.

Thanks how much is the pipes im a bit brassic atm after tyres service parts,insurance tax etc,does this make it sound any different than stock bmc hoses ?

Basically, the stock hoses don't fit... which is why the Pipercross was popular.
BMC is a better product otherwise - in my humble opinion.
