Ordered it day one but missed the first batch as every website crashed, eventually turned up just before Xmas but totally worth the wait.

And tbh if you’re paying for a pro detail, don’t muck around and get a ceramic coating instead. It’s a billion times better than any wax, and actually lasts unlike a wax (12mths my arse, never found one to be of any use after 3 at the absolute most and that’s with serious prep and thought into it too!). Can’t really go wrong with the SC range tbh, but ask what the detailer in question prefers to use.

Trust me, the 3080 is everything it’s said to be and more. 4K/60 ultra in cyberpunk, ac Valhalla, wd legion etc is simply incredible. Such a step up from either 4K/30 or 1080/60 that it’s worth every penny, I love mine.

If you’re not applying it then wax is wax more or less, so yeah it’ll be fine.

very old one I picked up from SELOC (lotus forums) back when I owned the VXR220!

Buy a sticker, stick it on. Job’s a carrot.

Tbh I haven’t posted because it’s electric so has zero desire for me, and the Taycan exists which is a more desirable car. Same way I’d always want the sportier/premium version of any VAG product rather than the cheaper one. That said, it’s not horrendous to look at. Except for both wheel options

A value is only set by the price someone is willing to pay, if it was worth a grand someone would’ve paid that for it no harm at all in holding out for what you want for it, but it’s not true to say it’s worth £1k on the hope that someone then sees it as a bargain at £500. All IMHO, and the values mentioned by the OP and the offeree would seem to be fair in my eyes.

I particularly like the fact that Mars is the only planet we know of entirely populated by robots.

Just be aware of the weight and construction of cheaper wheels, you may find they’re an awful lot heavier than you think.

I would’ve thought OEM Rays posted in the 350 section would be obvious enough

Just get a set of OEM Rays, you won’t get a better wheel without spending daft money

I disagree on the size differences/TC issue. The difference on both is less than 3%, the car will be happy with that and that’s not an uncommon tyre size to run when moving to 19” wheels. Spot on about the lack of sidewall causing comfort problems though, plus the car will likely be slower and handle noticeably poorer given the usual increase in unsprung mass that moving to larger wheels normally entails.

Since wider tyres are more susceptible to aquaplaning than narrower ones, I question the validity of this.

I doubt it. Certainly not in a form that we’re used to, or one that we would actually enjoy either.

For the first few minutes I thought he was missing the point entirely, but by the end he nails it completely. Great video, and sums up perfectly why the BRZ86 is what it is.

I’d love an ND, for me it’s absolutely perfect especially in the facelift with the extra grunt of, what, 185bhp? Bang on where it needs it to be tbh, given the weight. I don’t dislike the looks of the Fiat, but a revvy 2.0 NA trumps a wheezy 1.4 turbo lump any day for me. These cars are all about purity of control over power, and the Mazda wins hand down.

Well, it makes the ZP look better at least.

Darker the better, hides most of the awful lines like the Supra

Strangely the car gets better looking as the colour gets darker there, much like the current Supra...

Christ, that website is desperate for attention using that photo with that headline

Just the right amount of blue in that cabin now, good work mate

Ahhhh that’s why I’ve never seen it then! Ignore my post above.

Nope, nothing on that for me, either if I start from the first new post, the top of the last page or the top of the first page.

Never seen that on mine, got a link to a thread in particular?
