Upgraded the OEM turn signals to OSRAM ones. Managed to source them for £70 (cost £180 from OSRAM supplier). Look brilliant  :grin:




I have the smoked ones on my TCR too. They do look great other than once fitted, you don't get to see them any more! :laugh:

At least we can see them whenever we lock/unlock. Other than that is a public service - more visible to fellow road users and they can see how good it looks!  :grin:

Not strictly today, but earlier this month a bunch of us went to the Nürburgring....

My car was faultless, and I had a blast despite it being a bit damp on one of the days.

After a productive tip run in the Golf and some lunch it was time to pop to my parents. Unfortunately the journey was fraught as the temp gauge didn't move and I have an engine management light now on.

I do not have a reader but I am hoping it is a senser issue as the car appears to be running ok and is only showing a stop start fault.

The car is lumpy on start up too so I will book it in with my local indy on Monday.
