  1. What about the vx220 Turbo? BTW the new astra vxr look sweet, just like a big corsa, lol.
  2. I was thinking about it but most places set everything up the same! At least i know i wont shred the 4 brand new bridgestone runflats that they fitted. I'll give them one more chance and i'm asking for an extra years warrenty or free service for my hastle!
  3. Ok, so i finally got my car back today. It only took 2 weeks to paint the bumper, replace 2 roof clips and adjust the tracking!!! Guess what the bumpers fine, the roof clips are fitted and the bloody tracking is adjusted but my steering wheel is sittin off center again but in the opposite direction!!!!!!!! Ive counted that i have now travelled the 40 mile round trip 7 times and i'll need to go back again next week!
  4. I took my astra sri 1.9 150bhp diesel for its first service. The dealer gave me a new astra vxr as a courtesy car. I couldnt believe how fast it felt at the time. I dove half way home and turned around, went back to the dealer and bought one, lol. Car was priced around £20k i bought one with a vx partners discount for £15,400. Sold it a year later for around £14k, so i was really happy with that car!
  5. oh god the amount of people who have what seems to be a comprehensive opinion on the driving atributes of a car. but when asked "have you driven one?" they never bloody have. I had an MR2 roadster and S2000, the amount of people on here alone who said "thats a hair dressers car" but never drove one. i find it funny that on here lots of people says "the zeds a proper mans car" yet the influx of women on here has almost been greater than the blokes Yip, agree. I also cant understand the hatred for BMW's and there drivers. My Z4 is totally different from my Zed and E92 but its got some really good points. When i had my VXR brand new, i was a ned, when i had my Zed, i was apparently driving a datsun, then when i had my new E92 i was all show and no go, now with the z4 i'm a hairdresser! Cant win!

    Glasgow respray

    I can really recommend my friend in Wishaw, he quoted me £120 to paint my Z4 bumper before BMW agreed to do it for free!
  7. I hate when folk quote the likes of Jeremy Clarkson on posts like this, " boxsters are a poor mans Porche" etc. If you've drove it comment if you havent dont!
  8. I reckon if you add up the amount of money you have gone through with that lot you could have easliy bought a M3.....or a new house (deposit anyways) Agree, i would love to be able to say it was worth it, but it wasnt! Lol.
  9. Why just BMW drivers, volvo drivers have been doing it for years. Also a lot of new BMW's come with the daylight running lights on as default and most folk dont realise you can urn them off in the OBC!
  10. Mustang, EsCos, RS500, Granada Coupe, MkI/MkII Escort RS's, Lotus Cortina, Capri 3.0S .......... theres loads! Yes even the M cars because even though they are A-Mazing drivers cars you still cannot help but look at one and think 'you utter, utter turdwit'. Fords.........all awesome listed above. Reminds me of a more joyful time! Can you explain to me why you would think that of someone simply because of the car they drive! I'm not suggesting that this applies to you Ricey, but folk who make comments like that come across worse than the people they are describing. Also could you give me a few examples of BMW drivers upsetting you?
  11. Plus - BMW drivers all fancy themselves but they're all . . . .well, sales reps & estate agents - and they all park like morons too I don't fancy myself, I'm not a sales rep or an estate agent and i have awesome parking skills. So sound's like your talking out your A hole dude! Anyway the threads about cars not the folk that drive them!
  12. I dont know why but your front wheel arch looks massive! But the wheels look good!
  13. Fiat 500, nissan cube, plus loads more!
  14. Hi Jay, i'm picking my car up tomorrow from Harry Fairbairnes, early afternoon if your about?
  15. Dont know if this helps, but on the BMW's sometimes if you hit a small pothole or bump the puncture warning light can come on!
  16. What i like about the touring cars is that it's everyday cars taking to the limit!
  17. Thats a proper car that is!! Hope you have fun in it!
  18. Yip i agree, that part is pretty interesting but the driving round the track part is gash!
  19. Seriously? Don't see the skill... compared to what? You're obviously entitled to you opinion, but you're very wrong on this! Maybe i'm just used to spending my time with guys who have a serious skill set! F1 must be the most boring thing I've ever watched. I once watched it for an hour and nothing changed. Best part is the pit changes!
  20. Seriously, i dont get it. Ok they are fit and train hard. But if you took the driver from an ok team and put him in the best car at any time he would win, unless something stupid happened.
  21. No really into F1 mate. Don't see the skill in it! Overpaid ****'s if you ask me! Sorry.
  22. Wit!!!! Good luck with the new car, obviously your changing for the drivers experience and not look's!
  23. Custom! You'll get exactly what you want with no fitment issues and a warranty on both quality and fitting. If your not happy with the noise you can have it altered. Also if you get fed up with the look, you can go back at a later date and get the tailpipes etc changed.
