I recently bought an s3 intercooler + pipes from matted30 and not going to bother fitting it as im not sure if im going to keep the car that long so dont want to spend too much on mods.
Ive advertised it in the classifieds so if anyone wants it pm me. Its still in the original box and hasnt been removed.
I paid £276 all in so thats what im selling it for which is cheaper than anywhere else. :smiley:
Thanks
Luca

Replied :smiley:

:grin:

What you laughing at :grin:

keep me in mind if your selling the team D's

Will do mate, considering all sorts of cars at the minute.
Wouldnt mind an R with a non res milltek just for the noise :evil:
Also missing the cooper s alot maybe buy a gp and take it to around 280bhp :evil:
These are just ideas at the moment so no definates yet :smiley:

When you said you were getting rid of the FMIC, I didn't realise it was that serious (car selling) :cry:
You bored already mate?
-
Nothing serious yet mate :grin:, just fed up with the lack of traction. Been looking at all sorts of cars, dont know if i want a lightweight quick car like a lotus exige or exige s or another cooper s but with more mods.
Or i might change my mind and keep the golf :smiley:.
Doubt i will be doing anything until after christmas anyway.

I'm sure the Audi S3 boys with their AWD will welcome you with open arms.

id keep it luca, its a nice nice car and youl have lost alot of money if you wanna sell now, tis pritty daft reason for sale aswell, no traction.....drive slower :rolleyes: any way keep it mate!! :afro:
and if you change you mind with the ic, il help you if you like? :smiley:

Love the s3 but want something with a bit more noise :evil:. Joe its kind of you to offer your help but i would want all the bolts to be fixed to the car and ic instead of left over :laugh:. Only joking mate, nice one for the offer.
To make things worse ive just seen a lovely gp for sale only £16k, will always fetch good money in the future as there are only 444 in the uk and 2000 worldwide. Also the fact that its 50kg lighter than a normal cooper s which puts it at around 1050kg, 218bhp (which would be increased to 280ish if i get one), lsd, no rear seats, carbon fibre spoiler, recaro front seats, jcw suspension and brakes etc make it a very attractive buy.

The mini's traction evn with high power is alot esier to control as the power delivery is much more linear.
The gp in stock form is pretty bland but with a few engine mods and exterior mods its a real animal.
Keeping the golf until after christmas then will decide what to do.
Dont think my old mini looked girly at all
-
whats the vid of snoop dogg gotta do with a mini :laugh:

WTF how did that get on lol

I wouldn't let the traction issues get you down to much at the min mate. It's just that time of year when the roads are greasy as fook, mine's awful! But i'm just not tearing about, so it doesn't bother me to much. Come the summer, it's a lot lot better.. :wink:
-
No mate its a tunnel run next staurday night 15th november.
Mini forum has organised so there are around 40 minis and around 20 non minis going including mine, skyline gtr, m3csl and some other loud and quick cars.

I know it will get better, will probably hold on to it, just me and my crazy ideas :laugh:

You know it makes sense Luca :wink:
Tunnel run sounds :cool: Shame it's in the smoke as I'd take a look otherwise!
-
Luca, from a fellow Red ed30 owner, you are seriously mad to think of trading it up for a mini :sick:, go have a beer and have a re-think!

Anyone can come to the tunnel run if they want to. Just need to find a hotel in london as the run wont finish until around 3am ish :smiley:
