if anyone has one of those crappy f430s and wants to do a straight swap for my fantastic ed30,  pm me and we'll have a deal :evil: come on boys ( and girls ) i think most of us would like a nice f430 in red. i would leave the kids at the in laws and get a roofrack for it to cart my mountain bike around. the kids might even fit in the luggage bay!

....A totally matt black Mk5 GTI/Ed30/R32 would look pretty cool too, don't you think? :cool:

It takes a lot of balls and money to start modding a 599 GTB, Is that a Hamman conversion by the way Rob?

Did some work over in South Kensigton (posh part of London) a few months back now. Should have seen the car park. My old little MK4 looked a little out of place lol











Thats just a little bit of it, every car in this car park was just stunning.

That M5 reminds me. :smiley:

My dad had his a$$ kicked by a white M5 the other day while riding his one bike:



Thats a Kawasaki Zx14 000 GTR and the BMW owner pulled up and said hey. Nice bike. Wanna drag? My dad laughed and said hell yeah and at that point could keep up with the M5 but could not pass it. Had he been on this one though things would have been very different: (The blue one in the background) 0-100 in 2.1 seconds  :evil: :evil:



The GTR is the touring version of the blue one and has less HP but still flies.
BTW. The BMW driver pulled over and popped the hood. He had over 15 000 pounds worth of mods. Everything from suspension to (I stand to be corrected) getting the car BI Turboed  :evil:

My dad says it changed gears like a formula 1 car. It took like 3 or so seconds per gear change :laugh:
I wish I was there.

0-100 in 2.1 seconds

That is crazy, how can you get that much traction to actually take you to that speed in that space of time, sounds mental !!!!
