Yeah definitely feel lighter when lugging them around compared to the Pescaras Rich  :happy2:

Granted some of the difference could be the weight of the Federals compared to PS3? Either way they do seem to make quite a difference to the 'feel' of the car, feels a bit lighter on its feet as it were and took away some of the heaviness to the steering that the WALK introduced

No difference at all imo mate, neither will make any noticeable performance or noise increase to the car but do look very nice when you open the bonnet  :happy2:

Re: Beddie's Edition 30.... 70K birthday trip to Spa
« Reply #57 on: October 18, 2012, 10:23:47 pm »
So 4 years and 70K miles in my trusty '30 now, no new mods to report other than a mini service including new plugs, PCV and DV in readiness for a week of giving the old girl chance to stretch her legs a little  :smiley:

1200 miles, lots of super unleaded and it never missed a beat, still amazes me what a bloody good car it is!  :happy2:

Started out at the Ring







Then off to Spa
