Not really done anything massive to the car for ages, but i did wash and polish it the other day so on my way home tonight i stopped for a couple of pics. I had a little scuff on one of the sills so got some carbon sill guards off ebay to tidy it up a bit and pads wanted changing so went for EBC yellows as we sell them at work (cheap) they seem just as good as the 1144s they replaced day to day on the road.

I think id quite like some HIDs but i always think they look a bit chavy when there retro fitted to stuff that doesnt have them from the factory? might lower the suspension on the back a touch as well.

230bhp is a healthy amount for a car that light! how light are they?
