  1. The fact I use it so much more than the 325i is making me wanna have just one car now, even though I need the comfortable car for shuttling family around haha. No point getting an E320 CDI if you've got the S320 available to use, might aswell get a hot hatch then use the S class for those comfy times!
  2. Voted for the hatch because in my opinion the aerodeck looks like a hatch with a little bit added on to make it an estate, then the rear boot lines like oh snap we measured wrong! hence the lip on the boot. But that's just my opinion and I do respect a fast estate. But I drive a Honda Stream type-R Breadvan so yeaaaaah.
  3. 10/10 did not expect. If it's what you need to move out and proves to be more reliable then I'm sure you've made the right choice. Now go set a laptime around the TG test track
  4. Does it have an apostrophe in its name?
  5. Did you get this sorted in the end then? What're the plans for this? @vtec2011
  6. 3M tape a dinner tray to your sump, that should work! Or make an under-car oil catch can, so scene.
  7. Nighthawk preface EP3 Fwend! Nice car haha, good plans too!
  8. Thanks man I appreciate it! I have a few minor aesthetic plans but my main goal at the moment is performance, once I get the parts I need for my ~260bhp build, I'll make it look mental! The backbox is getting changed at the end of this month for a custom one but I want it to keep the same tone so hopefully it still sounds good! I agree about the crystal taillights, they're awesome but I've only ever seen them on American EP3 Si or that one at Japfest2! I may just do all red overlays on them, not sure at the moment!
  9. Smashed two sumps when on 15's, so bought 18's to make it sit higher (didn't adjust coilies, kept it 'stanced yo'), mudflaps scraped on the floor on any cambered road or most straights, smashed my new front splitter to bits a day after getting it.. knocked a wishbone pin out on a speedbump.. but it looked good! Priorities because 18 year old with ego.
  10. My areas probably the worst for speedbumps in London though to be fair Roj haha, my stock height ep3 struggles at times God knows how I used to drive my mk4 golf around here..
  11. Absolutely loving this EG! Looks so evil and that plate is spot on, still reading through the build now, Sohail with the '09 Polo told me to check it out cause it's mental and he's not wrong The spec on both this and the aerodeck look incredible!
  12. Funny thing is.. mine and Rojs mate with the black coupe at JF2's driveway is exactly like that ^ haha, he has to come off it almost sideways! But yeah Roj lower it anyway! But you have a lip kit now so be careful
  13. Wasn't gonna do the rears as I agree, the rear facelift taillights look crap unless you red film them, which I might do to the mums car, gonna be sweet having two NHB EP hatches with the kits outside the house though
  14. Projectors so double win!
  15. My mum doesn't care how her car looks so me and the dad are buying her a nighthawk black facelift EP2 sport.. and then swapping the front end over to mine and vice versa, she won't mind
  16. Booking my EP3 in for another exhaust system, just for fitment purposes mainly tucking the centre section up and getting a new HKS style angled backbox made that fits a bit better! Also the headers I want are on sale at the moment so I'm trying to negotiate a finance plan with my Mum in order to get it, as otherwise it'd be £450+ from America, rather than the £300 delivered it is currently from here! Also a facelift front end conversion might be taking place soon, for basically free Watch this space.
  17. Or smashed sumps in my old golfs case Nah Roj a subtle drop will be nice till you get coilovers, then drop it a bit more and make it a tiny bit stiffer for track yo! Can't wait to next see this MB6, it always has something new every time I see it! Any thoughts on what brand springs/shocks you're going for?
  18. Real men have exhaust center sections 1 1/2" off the ground. At stock height. Yeah get lows next then you can have all the 'scene kid' problems I had in the past haha
  19. I know all about the cruise scene.. CruiseNotts ring a bell? LMAO my cousin has a 265bhp audi S3 MK1 in Notts, so I knew all about the scene there. London is pretty cool cause you can just head down South and there's nice twisty roads, then there's places like Box Hill etc. To be honest my BMW does the comfort and luxury/speed aspect, whilst my EP3 does the outright speed/handling/boy racerness, so I'm lucky in a way. I do change my mind in what cars I want A LOT though!
  20. It's funny cause the car I hated the most (my MK4 golf) is the car I've owned the longest so far at 13 months! The BMW hits a year in 2 weeks though The EP3 is the first car I've fallen in love with since my GT turbo so smiles all round! Just went for a hoon to morrisons and I just love the stares it gets and compliments from people who know what it is.. also get mothers shielding their childrens ears or putting their windows up in traffic though. Also it snaps peoples necks on VTEC haha
  21. I'm on 5 in 3 years so I have a chance of being on 15 in 10 years if I carry on at this rate Yeah all the hot type Rs have always had black backed headlights, ATR, EK9, DC2 so I thought I should do it to my EP3!
