Tyre looks knackered too...
Dynoed mine yesterday made 369HP
Hi there,
Is that with the 'standard' BPU bits and bobs or anything extra?
Kind Regards
Alec
The Mrs car is the same, it came into contact with kerb, lost a bit of a chunk (same kind of depth as yours, but a bigger area) but has never balooned as I expected so I've just left it. Wasn't picked up at either MOT or service from the Main Dealer

Looks worse than it is, thankfully it's just a few chunks of the rim protector, but will be keeping an eye on it

Had decent results using a magic eraser on my (albeit already knackered) steering wheel. Wouldn't recommend it for general cleaning however.

kinda looks the same height, not had chance to settle yet though, had a quick run along some back roads, does not feel to much harder, feels a bit more responsive through the steering, koni's were set to half way, have given them a quarter turn to hard since

Quite like those alloys. Nice

As I do to all cars in our household, fitted a small led strip to run from the vastly inadequate boot light that seems to inhabit every modern car.
now you can actually see the contents at night!

I also like these but not as much they are Fullrace A's from Braid.

Got way more excited than I should do over some new car mats...
They are much nicer than the tatty old ones with holes next to the throttle and I'm very impressed with the quality of the fabric, a nice thick pile that feels like they'll last an age without fraying
