Haha yes that would be me! Thanks for coming down Gibbo, was good to see you, and thanks for the ride in the M! I'm sure we can get to the bottom of the clunk!

If you want to built it over time then mx5 all the way, it's begging for boost, and with decent coilovers, tyres and geo the handling (stock or boosted) is so, so good.

Another vote for the leon here, good looking cars, nice inside, good equipment levels for the money and they generally have decent seats in them.

Try parkers website, I think they offer approximate new costs.

Halfords again for me, excellent stuff and the ratchets are easily serviceable. Definitely wait for sale time. Or borrow a trade card...... I got my 200 piece kit for £125 on the trade card ;)

And compromise, too, what makes a car dig in for traction doesn't necessarily equal good cornering ability.

mx5 turbos command strong money, hardly anyone wants to actually do it themselves, although several places offer a drive in drive out service

I drove an E92 330 before buying the 335i - nothing fun about it at all. Apart from the power, there isn't much fun about the 335i, either if i'm honest. I bought mine as a daily.... For £7k I imagine you could get a really tidy mk2.5 mx5, have it turbo'd, dropped on some HSD monopro, a set...

Honestly, tell them to **** off. Literally, like that. That have absolutely zero capability to do anything about it. If it comes to it, let them take her to court, the hell they gonna do? Don't enter into any arguments, just tell them to **** off and say sue me. They won't.

Put me down for the second list gibbo :D *goes off to find out how to remove pesky speed limiter*

Meh at night they're fair game :D

Surely it depends where on the spring it has broken, if you've lost a couple of inches of coil at one end you may not notice it much if at all, if it's broken in half, however....

All of my power mods resulted in finding a weak point in the system.... new metal charge pipe in the post!

Ah yeah I see what they did now - they logged and plotted the boost targets for mine, not attained boost. n00bs :D

I have heard Syrian refugees are rife in the Airbnb :rolleyes:

So, after pulling 377bhp on the dyno Saturday..... Today, with the help of Lee @ SSG in Stoke I added the last piece of the "Full bolt-on" package to the 335i. Evolve de-cat downpipes and then flashed the ECU with the most aggressive Stage 2 MHD map for use with 98RON. It feels much more...

Today, with the help of Lee @ SSG in Stoke I added the last piece of the "Full bolt-on" package to the 335i. Evolve de-cat downpipes and then flashed the ECU with the most aggressive Stage 2 MHD map for use with 98RON. It feels much more powerful, spooling is much quicker, noise is improved...

I bought one for £180 with 202k on the clock, scrapped it two months later with just under 205k on the clock and got £54 back. Bangernomics 101.... mondeo is good for it!

Affirmative - I had one at 18 and we had no end of fun in that, right Clarkey :D
