Phill... you didn't like the Stoneleigh show...?

I really liked it, and so did everyone that turned up with us (Dips, Kedge, Simon, Richy, Gareth, etc.)

Weather was great, LOADS of cars (mostly in the car-parks though!), I guess it must have been the company that made it for me then. 8)

The actual show itself was kinda small, even though there was the Porsche contingant (sp) there too. Could have been bigger. My only fault with it.

Giles.

P.S. - Lovely Touring. Didn't see it at Stoneleigh though... shame.

Didnt see this thread!

I'm a big fan of tourings and am on my second one now.

They most definately handle better than saloons. One with a H&R cup kit would handle superbly. I will be trying this out very soon, but previous experience with uprated suspension on tourings has given excellent results.

They seem to be better built and rust less aswell. And I defo agre with the comment about being classier.

Black/red tourings slammed look the dogs!

i know the weight thingy is great but is the turn in as crisp as as a saloon 4pot/6pot, even with a touch more weight?

Would a well set up touring help hide the small gap between the 4 pot massive in their chav M3's and 318's?

I'm always after Avez - I love them - I have Two full sets now (one on my e30 & one set on my Mk1 golf cab) and one slightly non - rounded one - due to a curb & not me driving

They are the best wheels about - except alpinas of course
