    MPSS price

    Bit difficult to compare tyres across different size wheels. Your 19's probably feel more planted because of the smaller sidewall and I assume on the 19's your running wider tyres and a different offset. Put mpss on your 19's then tell me the khumo are better.
  2. ^^^^^^^^ This!^^^^^^^^ A RHD, RWD 5.0 V8, 6 speed Manual, good looking muscle car for £35k.....That's a win! I'd have that over any German car. Possibly not over a AM V8 Vantage, but I'm torn on that ATM as I said in my post on the other thread. I would have to drive them both and I would choose the one that excites me more.
  3. I've always had a soft spot for american muscle, Camero's and Stangs in particular, but since the 70's they all went ugly. (new Camero aside) I have always wanted a V8 and have already said my next car will be a V8 of some sort. I love the classics but not sure I can be bothered with owning an old car now, or infact a LHD unless it was my second car. I had pretty much decided that an AM V8 Vantage would probably be my next car (if after driving it I wasn't too disappointed with performance) as it ticks all the boxes for me - V8, Sounds awesome, beautiful, reasonably fast, RWD, Manual, capable of the occasional trackday. This has been very cleverly priced, and will tempt quite a few people, including me, I think will do pretty well over here. I hope it's good!
  4. Yeah gonna be so many black lines at the traffic lights! I absolutely love the rear end.
  5. Liked the look of this for a while. Best stang since the 70's.
  6. When I had my wheels re-furbed Nov 13, and after a bit of research, I used G-technique C5 on them. http://gtechniq.com/...c5-wheel-armour It is pricey, but VERY good. I run the wheels all year, all weather. Until very recently I hadn't done anything else with them since other than wash them and they still look like new! The last couple of washes I've just sprayed a little quick detailer on them afterwards as the water beading from the C5 has now stopped. So in short, if you want to put one coat of something on and it last 12-14 months then this is the stuff to use. If However you like to spend time polishing you wheels every few months/ washes, then the FK 1000P would probably be best. I'm just deciding myself what to do this year.
  7. Absolutely. Make it your own. Especially if you can get it done for 'mates rates'.
  8. Welcome to the club. Start the inevitable modding by getting yourself a stubby aerial.
  9. Is there a part number for the center cap on the back of it? Might be able to google that and go from there.
  10. I know it's not totally correct, but I have never done it with the throttle open. I've never had a problem getting good readings. Something isn't quite right with yours as they are all low, but i would say the important thing is still clear...... No. 4 is toast. Sorry to see this, I'm afraid it's looking like a rebuild / new engine for you.
  11. Sound fun. Well done for getting involved and giving us the opportunity for an invite.
  12. Assuming you have a rhd car, bank 1 is drivers side.
  13. Mental and totally irresponsible. They should be fined for taking photographs while driving! Oh yeah, and the guy with the ladder isn't that clever either.
  14. Welcome to the club, will look forward to reading your build thread.
  15. Yep, the link above pretty much tells you all you need to know and how to go about fixing it. It won't cause any damage or have any noticeable effect on how the car drives in the short term, so don't panic. For reference: The (bank 1 sensor 2) Sensor it relates to is fitted in the rear of the driver's side CAT.
  16. Welcome to the club. Best to get to a meet and see what you like the sound of. It's all just opinions on what sounds best. Usual suspects for a decent exhaust are Cobra, Miltek, Nismo, Invidia, Ark.
  17. Welcome to the club and happy hunting,
