i am getting itchy feet ...maybe get a m3 again [e92] i would get an r8 but i cant be doing with the attention it brings....but the dilemma i have is i am not going anywhere with the m3 if anything a step sidewards.. logic tells me the gtr is the motor but you have got to like the look of a motor and it is a bit of a minger look wise imo....or i may just blend in with every other punter in essex...and get the wanna be a gangster truck a range rover...
Supercharge Jas...I'd have the R8 tho'.

I can say the RRS idea is pukka Scaggy...I've been rocking around in mine for almost 6 months albeit its a smoker not the supercharged monster. Done over 10000 miles in it already.

Even did a Land Rover Experience Day which was one of the best days out I've had in a long time.

I love it and in the snow it's been brilliant.

Off to the Alps in it in a couple of days having done 2000 miles to Aviemore and the surrounds in it two weeks ago for some boarding at Cairngorm.

Can't think of a more comfortable way to travel.

For the S4, I'm aiming to get it into the 600's, have the PSS9's fitted and enjoy it for a bit.

Sadly not many plans...

Getting married July so saving the pennies for that!

Air filter possibly, and of course a European road trip in August!

Well the plans were to treat the RS to some so called MRC magic with the aim of 450-460 bhp but those plans have been put on hold at least temporarily as I have just blown my budget apart on another performance motor. Fully committed now, deposit left and the 22B now very sadly up for sale. :(
I'd love to get the RS done but really can't afford it now.
Current;
Porsche 997.1 GT3RS. Pure Orange, ceramics, etc, Sharkwerks exhaust
BMW 2002 restomod; Turbo body kit, S14 M3 Evo engine and lots more
Audi Q3 Black edition Quattro

Previously enjoyed;
Ibis White B7 RS4 Avant : TTS Supercharged 615ps/614 nm
Subaru Impreza 22B
Noble M400
TVR 400SE
Lotus Sunbeam Avon

I have just ordered some 8mm and 10m spacers for mine, I might get the resonater removed and maybe a remap. All depends on how much my loft conversion costs, as ive promised the wife i'll get it done and then its open season on the rs :twisted:

I might do an air filter, but im otherwise happy with the power for now so im heavy into modding my gadgets.

I have already fitted the smartTop to control my roof with a remote

I have purchased a digital TV box Controlled via RNS E (although im more interested in the digital radio it comes with and its USB media abilities)

The Module that sits between the TV box and the RNS E supports a reversing camera (Auto activates on reverse select) and apparently the A6 boot handle with camera fits my car perfectly but I will loose the never used key hole as the A6 Key hole is placed else where, so this is high on my list as it's a cheap add on and something I would find genuinely useful.

I will probably upgrade my RNS E to the new 2010 model, but I will see if I can live with a lack of video in motion on my current RNS E (removing the Video in motion restriction is currently not possible on the new 2010 model)

Next month I will be adding Fiscon Bluetooth, I love how it looks and acts just like the OEM bluetooth but supports more features on my phone like A2DP, Supports more phones, and is user upgradeable should I get a new phone with new bluetooth features.

Looking down the line I would like to change all my buttons inside for the later chrome insert type, as I have the early bland buttons.

I would love to somehow make the jump to "secure" keyless entry and start but that is currently infeasible

this one

http://www.kufatec.de/shop/product_info ... erung.html

If you purchase one I recommend going to Kufatec.de instead of Kufatec.co.uk as it seems to work out much cheaper.

There is a button to translate to english at the top of the screen
