Cheers!! Do try my best, tile diver I noticed you have a res valved milly, if I keep mine I need to make it a lot quieter due to hearing damage to one ear, what's it like with the valves closed ?

I have to say I'd find it very difficult to part with that car Silas, it's superb and a credit to you. If I was in your situation I'd definitely look at installing a quieter exhaust system teacher than sell. Good luck whatever you decide to do, and sorry you find yourself in this situation.

Looking well fella.. :beerchug: gave mine a wash and wax today as well.. :biggrin2:
Glad your thinking of keeping it fella and sorting the exhaust tone out. I think you would regret selling it a few months after...it really is a good clean example..

Silas,

Well, with the valves closed and during normal driving the car is very civilised, even up the rev range it's still ok, not mental, the Mrs has never moaned about it, and take it from me she moans about everything!!! so it must be alright. :beerchug:

I made space in an overcrowded saloon for my car wash/ polish kit on the grounds that "i never have enough time to do it properly at home, but while we're at your parents..." - and your pic has justified me! : :jump_clap: have a resonated Milltek on mine, wife very happy with being able to tell when I get home and the growl when she's in the car without it being too much - regularly drive 200 miles to the in laws with no complaints... And when it comes to it I have no idea what I could replace it with so an exhaust is cheaper and happier! :notworthy:

Ha ha!!! She's alright really, considering I told her that I was buying an Audi Estate car, and don't worry I said it's also 4 wheel drive so it'll be great around our way in the winter! Well I wasn't lying!!! :rocker:

She was totally unaware I would be returning with a total BEAST!!!!
