Love it! Spacers for a wider stance?

Love it! Spacers for a wider stance?

Thanks. I usually have some on the car, but because I recently had to show the car at our equivalent of the MOT, I had to take them off. Unfortunately that is how Switzerland works, you cannot even put a set of spacers on your car without them being certified by a certain Swiss association (they don't accept TüV), without getting into trouble. The problem is that homologated 10mm spacers don't exist. I decided to put them back on when fitting the winter tyres in the coming weeks . The main problem is that the police actually look for these kind of small details when you get pulled over or get checked on their frequent police check-up controls...

frequent police check-up controls...

Are there actually any benefits to living in Switzerland?!?

[marc1]

Wow didn't realise that. Harsh! In that case it's probably not really worth putting them on.

Lived in London for almost 6 years, lets just say I miss it dearly.

Taxes and standard of living are fab here. Not much else and I say that being Swiss... An absolute nightmare for people who like to modify their cars…!

Yeah, I've got a Swiss watch but I don't have to live in Switzerland... you get my drift?

I remember when a few years ago the car company I worked for tried to get homologation papers to sell a special limited edition model in Switzerland, but it proved totally impossible because the gap between the rear spoiler and the bodywork was too large for Swiss rules - we sold it in every other country where we had dealers though including the US

Thanks.

It's pretty much the spec I wanted (ceramics, buckets etc etc) plus a miltek exhaust and revo stage 2.

Ive got a few plans for it. Probably darker colored wheels, black optics, carbon interior (instead of brushed ali) and probably get the revo replaced with a proper map once I've carbon cleaned it.

What??? Now you tell us it's got ceramics after posting five pictures, haha. Where is picture six (front wheels...)?

You mean like this???

[marc1]

Yep.
