I've seen some new R32s here. They look bulky to me.
Yesterday I've seen two Lambo Gallardos - yellow  :drool: and orange. Also saw two RS4s. Saw M5, the driver floored it from the red light and took a corner, there was wheel spin and a very thin engine sound, I was surprised! Porsche Carrera 4S sounds much nicer than M5 from low RPMs. Saw four 4S just last evening.  :drool:

Oh, that aint mine - yet!  :wink:

Dosh is a little tight at the mo, and I'm waiting for successful reports of a durable "black" finish to the exhaust tips from Milltek, before taking the plunge.

Mine does sound very similar, even when standard though.  And when you press the "sport" button, and open her up through some of the long tunnels in the Alps, it actually makes the hairs on your neck stand on end!  :evil:  :evil:

Quick question

As there are only 1500 ED30's allocated for the UK Market are they allocated a number, i.e certificate withe what number build you are?
