Why all the yellow aftermarket tit tat/stickers. Just makes a decent looking car look rather cheap...

Let it be known that I dislike what you done to it!

The car was running the Mountune MR375 conversion for a long time and all the official Mountune branding was yellow. The RS badges were all changed from blue to yellow to keep with the theme. When the car was moved over to the Revo software the dome badges were changed. The car had a lot more stickers on it previously but I have been slowly removing them. The plan was to keep all the RS badges yellow and keep the PistonHeads sticker on the back (the yellow matches the Mountune brakes). The rest were coming off. I was then going to start stripping the badges from the interior (remove the Mountune stickers etc) and in the engine bay (remove all Spec-R stickers apart from the crossover pipe and get the plenum colour changed/remove the Anembo stickers) but will leave that decision to the new owner.

Lot's of money tied up in that :O

Why did you go for a twin breather over the single breather? I'm thinking if I want to get one in the future, I either have to get the group A induction then I can fit a twin one in, but I would like an AS induction kit, so then I'd only be able to fit in a single breather.

If I am honest, the only reason was that it fills the space better

The single breather is also a great bit of kit

Although at an average of 27.3 MPG I don't think you're doing it right

The morning journey was at 31mpg! Less traffic on the way back although still too much to have some fun.

I hope you got a discount from all those tuning companies in exchange for plastering their names all over your car

I couldn't speak for the previous owner as prices have gone up for some of the parts on the car so there isn't a way of checking, I have received some discount from various parts that I have bought even though they haven't been advertised on the car itself. If you don't ask, you don't get

That Mazda looks great ^^

Is it in gear in that last picture or is the gear stick just weird?

It's just a convertible 3-series, nothing special. Blackhawk's TT is just an overpriced small roadster-wannabe dieslol. Both not worth posting the **** out of IMO.
But if they're both proud of their purchases, then so be it.

Lol just seen this.

To be fair I've cut down on posting pics in here.

Some nice cars here as usual, but i am rather surprised that the Focus RS above is getting any love on this forum :eek:

Needless to say its not to my taste at all!

"Wikid bruv innit how fast m8 what litah" is all that goes through my head when i see a car like that

Because regardless of whether some chavs like them, they are still great cars.

The stick in those is in a weird offset position. You don't really notice when you're driving them though

The cars capabilities match the looks though, one of the biggest problems with cars looking like some sort of rallycross **** is when they are powered by a 1.6tdci and you could outpace them on foot.

Always nice to see something with some bark matched by it's bite.

Not feeling it at all

Loads of cars are fast without looking like chav wagons

Funnily enough that what goes through my head when I see Mercedes AMGs with oversized wheels and tinted windows. And I see more of those around here that I do Focus RS.
