I used to share a house with a Bassett Hound!

That would be the normal battle of wills then  :evil: we share ours with 7 of the buggers!!!

Tom, you were supposed to pop in this evening for a fault code check?

This is currently how i'm rolling :

Black rims, eibach springs, black exhaust tip's, exhaust tuck (less baggy looking), flo green stripe, S2000 antenna










Things on my external list to do :

Flo green TDi rear badge
Possibly flo green wheel pin stripe
De-colour code my side rub strips

Engine things to do :

EGR delete pipe ( so long as it doesn't put the egr light on ! )
Custom intake and filter position (possible custom airbox and position)
Maybe a new exhaust <<< not that bothered about this TBH, it's more for the look in the bumper appature

Things on my internal list to do :

Speaker addition + upgrade + sub
Centre front airvent

Looks awesome mate, that RR graph reminds (when i falter) to never go diesel. At 2krpm you have 60bhp and by 4.5k rpm you have just over 120bhp. Great for overtakes but not much else.

As said though, lovely looking car, i really like that green  :grin:

That r/r graph is out of date, thats on the CUK map, a weak as fook map, now running circa 220bhp/330lbs/ft - totally different drive now.

If you learn how to drive a diesel's power band you can have a nippy car ;)

Looks very nice mate. IMHO Keep the side strips colour coded and the badges chrome. Too much of the 'green' touches sometimes over does it.
