Bloody hell!

I found my Sport easier than my touring by a long way, must get those rear dampers changed!

yeh suspension is knackered and one of the rear springs are cracked

i mean its easier to just throw it in and get the arse out compared to my sport

dave u gotta get cup kit

tyre pressures adjusted today and cooling system bled a bit more and more coolant added....... i have a feeling that it may be eating water... there are no leaks.... but i think its using some as i poured about a litre more in today... maybe all the air didnt come out first time round and i was just replacing that

otherwise with correct pressures she gets the arse out in 3rd more easily than my sport which is much more powerful......-suspension must be really buggered LOL

drift spec indicators also installed- these basically don't self cancel which is useful while drifting round roundabouts and also indicating to other road users as to what is your exit

i know that car, its not bad but i dont think its as quick as my tourer, think i will have to pop over and find out for sure once you have done the suspension,
