Your plans for 2010?

I will be keeping my 599 and Q7s. Thinking of changing the 120d for an S3 Sportback.
Bikewise I'm lusting after another 'Busa so the GSA may have to go. I have quite a few mods planned for my Fat-Bob, mainly new Ceriani forks and other front end components.

I didn't realise you had a 120d. Are you not tempted by a 135i in your quest for a more powerful small car?
I haven't had the "pleasure" of buying new rear tyres yet, although I upgraded to the HGTE handling pack in summer which included new tyres. Next year will cost I'm sure.Spie I was expecting you to post your taking out shares in the company which provide the rear tyres on your car

Have another year until i can even think about getting a licence?
No. I've driven the 135i and although it is quick it doesn't feel any faster than the 120d low down. It also has tiny seats and is rather expensive.[TW]Fox;15570246 said:
I'm really more of an Audi man than a BMW man. I love Audi interiors and I hate to say this but I think the build quality is better. Audis are a tad boring to look at but the S3 should be a lot of fun
Decide if I am to keep my VXR and run a saloon along side it or just get rid and just have the saloon.
If I keep the VXR then I'll be getting my Alloys refurbished, rear defuser sprayed black, front grill sprayed black, side skirt scrape sorted, boot strip sprayed black, retro fit projector lights and xenons, fit in-dash satnav/DVD.

New bushes for the Puma, not sure what mix of powerflex and frp/oem yet !
New tyres, probably Toyos and a proper alignment
Possibly new suspension, getting it looked at - if so a 30mm drop so it will look less 4x4 !!
I would really like a full milltek - 4-2-1, sports cat and cat back but at £900 its lots of money to spend, we shall see

Survive Evo Ownership.
And as secondary targets (in no particular order):
Get car checked over properly by JRM, possibly remove Gizzmo EBC and use an Ecutek map with a 3 port boost solenoid.
Replace Autobahn 88 Intercooler with an AMS cast end IC.
Sell number plate.
Refurb spare set of Front Brembo's and replace the current ones.
Norris Designs or JRM drop in rods (K1/Manley).
Replace HKS induction kit with something else, possibly Blitz SUS.
MR Headlights.
Re-pipe in factory BOV to recirc.
Sell kidney to fund carbon addiction. Carbon wrap everything else when money runs out.
Thats more than enough, and I doubt it will all get done.

First priority is finish the engine rebuild on the 200SX, then drive it. Doubt they will be any further modifications unless they are going cheap with Group Buys and all. But one thing i will do is sort out the bodywork.
you didn't just go there did you.... 
plans...
save, save, save.
ill get a performance car when the time calls, far more important things in life to invest in atm whilst im young.
