Back on the road tomorrow. I've decided to keep it, going to spend some money on it over winter after I've finished the house and bought a pushchair.

Going to switch to a GP intercooler, get the 550cc injectors and a CAT cam which is seeing impressive results. Should be around 240bhp with that.

Thinking of stripping it slightly and fitting some decent buckets now got the Clio.

Only back seats, all BMW stuff weighs a ton so might get those Oranje GP rear panels so it looks nice still.

Oh and reason the suspension broke was because Lohen fitted the topmounts around the wrong way as they are sided.

I never mentioned before as I just wanted someone to fix them and stop blaming each other.

No nothing to do with the suspension Lohen fitted them incorrectly.

KW fixed them because KW make AP Coilovers.

I didnt even think it was possible to fit them the wrong way, done a few now, getting them 180degrees out is pretty obvious

can do the cam to olie, quite easy to do
