[kam325itouring]

My dad just bought a lexus is200 on a Y plate, ive been driving it around for a couple of days and he has been driving my 325 tourer. I thought the lex wasnt bad, quite quick but you get all the creature comforts, its full spec!!!!

Got my car back this morning drove it to work oh my god!!!!!! my car is so much quicker so much more enjoyable to drive!!!!

Ive driven a lot of cars in my job and the e30 is a hard car to beat!!

Lexus IS 200. ... 2.0 top speed 134 mph 0-60mph 9.5 seconds

Thats what i love about E30 325I's they maybe 17yrs old but can still make alot of new cars look slow

I had a knobhead behind me in a new BMW X5 trying to over take me, could he, No made him look a complete prick, he spend 40k on a nice shiny X5 to pose with and could not even over take a 17yr old BMW.

Is 200`s are quite slow considering , We had the same shape with a 3.0 at work ... Different ball game

Chips are remarkably easy to fit, i got Ant to do mine but when i saw how easy it was i felt silly for asking him to do it.

Best money i have spent on my cars so far imo.

What is the damage for one of these chips to suit an Is ??

My other car Audi S4 Avant has had a bespoke re-map by MRC at Banbury and new DV valves fitted going to fit a cat back Milltek and gut the pre-cats this year,this thing does completely anihalate "hot hatches" i like to let them start to overtake get on my back door then hit the loud pedal and leave them looking like right Tw88s on the wrong side of the road.
I must add i am old enough to know better but it still tickles me!

[mudskipper]

off topic but, i really love the S4 Avants, great looking and quick as F%$k....

[Frenchy]

mudskipper,send me your email addie and i can send you some pics of said beastie,spends most of it's time hibernating in the garage the E30's back from the bodyshop next week and is gonna get used.

So the Yellow Exocet will be tucked away.

I've just been to the far side of the country and back towing a caravan with mine. Can still outdrag quite a few cars with that behind.
At no time was I ever holding up another vehicle, except when I was in a queue myself.
I'm definitely old enough to know better, but it's fun.

I was really impressed with mine tonight. I really want to race a normal 325 to see how much quicker it is.
