There's a few RS's in Coventry now. We lived there up until recently with my old B7 that David has. The Mechanics in the dealership are pretty good too. Just got to get passed the numpty's on the front desks.

thing change, priorities change, budget changes, tastes changes, lots of things change

cars are just piece of metal, commodities, they are not houses ... the are Current Assets, not Fixed Assets

To buy the next car maybe??
DK would have a 100 car garage if he didn't sell them on, now that would be expensive

After everywhere being out of stock, I've finally sourced a Milltek to be fit tomorrow pre-ring trip on Saturday.

Many thanks to Doug @ MRC who come up trumps once again...they really are the best in the game.

thanks also to Revolution, but sadly my impatience meant I couldn't wait.

Roll on NON RES V8 sounds around the Ring!!
