Hello and welcome - nice car matey 

[Phil mcavity]

didnt u just wish u had just an extra £2500 so you could of gone one better!

nice car, whats the power delivery like on these?

[owls]

Power feels good but its not done many miles so I’m still taking it easy. Averaging 36 – 37 mpg. Have seen low 40’s.

The car is an import and is UK spec except for the seats. Cost me 16.5k from bob www.bobgerard.co.uk

They had 8 gtÂ’s in, in a mixture of petrol and diesel from 15k. Went along, had a look, test drove a couple and paid my money.

Happy with the car except there seems to be a lot of road noise compared to my old focus. The car has BridgestoneÂ’s. Will check tyre pressures to see if this helps.

Anyone else had same?

got bridgestone potenzas on my gt tdi 170  - not much road noise

done 12,000 miles on them since mid August and they look like they need replacing already !!

are they run flats?

[volks695]

Nice car mate , looks really smart! What size wheels are they?

[owls]

Wheels are the standard gt 17 inchers. I dont think they are run flat but i will check if it gets light.

[Neaty]

they are expensive to replace if they are, i took my old works civic type r to get new tyres, £117 each i think they were for that particular size, run flat bridgestones
