I went home via an industrial estate earlier.

With the TC off, it's ok, the car will go sideways in second, then you run out of revs.

Diesel drifting clearly isn't going to work for me

Few more pics to follow.

I've always wanted a car with automatically adjusting bolsters

That's a cool feature.

2.0 TDi Scott, 163bhp and 250lb/ft at the moment, will be having a remap at some point and will see nearly 200bhp and over 300lb/ft.

Good gain. That average MPG is quite something considering it's a 2.0 TDi and being fairly big

yeah, none of that has been round town though, my journey to work is at 60mph pretty much all the way, so the mpg will stay quite good hopefully.

it's big, but it's not slow either, quicker than I was expecting.

But, comparing to my brothers 1.9 CDTi Astra SRi 150 - He's getting 37 MPG around town and 45 - 48 MPG on a run. He doesn't like going over 2k though - I think that may be his problem

So, that's very good.

Seats look awesome bolsters used to do that on dad's M3. On the new M5 and M3 they move in automatically when you hit warp factor mode.

Only snobs have adjusting seat bolsters.

You used to be cool Robin.

You show that car a town and the MPG will drop like a stone

It is VERY nice though
