Had it lowered on Eibach Pro Kits + Koni FSD, rides much tighter without compromising too much on comfort. Also added my BBS wheels and caps though I'm still unsure about the colour (Dark Gunmetal) and might consider changing it.



The girl is a bit filthy and needs a wash but the weather is a bit mixed of late!

Spent a couple hours with some wax I won in a competition. (Auto finesse illusion)

What did you think to this wax mate? I am tempted to buy some for myself!

 :smiley:

Very good!!...........but vastly overpriced ( as are all Auto Finesse products).. £75 a pot!!! with over the top packaging.... I won it, but I've used other waxes with as good as result for a tenth of the price.

It says it lasts for around 3 months, as do most other decent waxes..so I wouldn't pay extra for this.


I'm sure this stuff is made my chemical Guys...   :popcornsoda:

Do you have a link to where you bought the fob from? I bought one off eBay a while ago and it was rubbish! Thanks

There you go fella. I ordered mine Tuesday and it came today, you can sorta tell it's not a genuine one, but that might be because it's not as worn in as my old one. That sound daft? :D

Just had to change the battery in my key fob. It suddenly stopped working - no indication of impending fail.
Good job I had some spares in stock!
CR2032 for info. Nominal voltage is 3.0v. The used one still measured 3.01v, but I guess it must drop under load. The new one measured 3.3v

Try these pal, they are cheaper than the other ones and they look better with the red insert on the lettering!  :happy2:
