bit steep imo, I sold my x reg with 147k FHSH to 97k, full MGZS suspension, Vtis front lip, SS powerflow centre section and longlife back box to a chap on here for £750! you can pick up a lip kit for about £100!

in my old MC2 i got about 280 to a full tank (about £60) and about 300 driving like a granny, f*ck knows how you lot get 400????

petrol light is pretty tempremental, on my old deck it sometimes came on when the needle was below empty and sometimes it never came on at all (i ran out of petrol a couple of times due to this!) never drive to the peteol light!!

so pretty much anything then! how about..... Clio 197, Megane RS, Fabia VRS, E46 M3, MR2 turbo, Accord Type S, none of these cars would need modding, barring the MR2 but get one already modded!

is there such a thing?? if there is show me where!!

whats your budget? is this a daily? weekend toy? family car?

i paid £50 to Longlife to fit mine

177 BHP!! I want her back!!

Cheers fella!

it was my old car!! Here's some pics! @Paulvti, jiffy's in the post, don't forget to send my bits back

Awesome car !!! How this car never won COTM i don't know!!!!

love what you done with the wheels!!

can't be that hard can it?? as long as you can follow instructions..... i hope!!

Honda quoted me £250, gonna have a go at doing it myself! a call to John Banks me thinks!

thanks for the replies chaps! just got off the phone to Honda, they said absolutely no need to change the water pump and tensioner when doing a cambelt! saves me a few quid!!

Hi All, My deck is due a cambelt change (just hit 142k) and was wondering do you need to change cambelt belt, water pump and tensioner? i sure i've read somewhere that only the cambelt needs changing but at the same time i think i've also read somewhere that the whole lot needs changing??? Can someone please shed some light on this? Cheers

good choice fella! lovely cars the e46 M3, rwd and 340+ bhp always been a fan of beemers especially the M versions, there has never been a bad BMW wearing the m badge! great upgrade! wish i could afford to run one!

serious amounts of money!!!

They have came down in price since i got mine! i got mine last year, full front and rear shocks and rear arb from a mkII MGZS 180 only covered 45k for £60! just got to know where to look!

you can pick up set of MGZS shocks and springs for about £40!

i'd have one at the drop of a hat!! MPG and 7 year/100,000 mile warranty to me thats the 2 things that i would want in a car!!! i must be getting old!!!

i didn't think performance plugs made any difference, if it does make a difference it'll hardly be noticeable and if it is then its prob placebo!

Makes sense technically, but personally IMO, (no offense meant to anyone personally, just my generalisation) I wouldnt drive or own a BMW if you paid me. I dont like the stigma surrounding them, same with most German saloon drivers Audi, Mercs etc... pull out without indicating, stick up your a**e & think they own the road!! No way! (not in my world anyway) D!cks drive Hondas too not just German cars! round my area most civic drivers are boy racers or chavs! if i had a pound for every time a ek or ep tried to race me i'd be a rich man! (again prob get lynched for this comment! )

E90 335d = 281bhp, 428lb-ft, 0-60 5.9 secs, 42 mpg vs 10+ year old civic, if i could afford one i know what i'd be driving! anyone that says otherwise is either a liar or mad! FACT!

prob get lynched for saying this but i'd take a new car over my 12 year old deck anyday of the week! pretty sure if anyone could afford to buy/run a new motor they would! give me an BMW E90 tourer all day long, or even a tdi Passat estate...... actually pretty much any new deisel estate!
