I posted on here a long long time ago with piccies of the car, and I thought I would post again with some fresh piccies. I have far too many piccies for my own good but thought I would list a few.

The following "Spec" is what's been done above standard:

-Iridium Spark Plugs
-K & N Panel Filter
-Full Stainless Steel Remus Sports Exhaust
-Remus 200 cell sports-cat
-Remus Downpipe
-EDS Race Map (switchable)
-Uprated Clutch

Figures as of Spring 2008 were 281bhp and 320NM torque. Since then I have had the clutch replaced which has totally tramsformed the car, wholly consistent and sharp, much more linear and strong than before. I want to get it back on a RR as this clutch issue has been going on since early 2008, and only now having had it changed have I realised the difference.

The following pics span my ownership, from new:

Often wondered about those rolling roads... Who actually sits in the car? are you allowed to do it or is it the operator?
The operator does. One of those photo's is at Vixpy1's place, Surrey RR.

Is that mandatory or can you insist on doing it yourself?
Mandatory I guess, as they know what they need from the engine, plus there will be heath and safety issues. I wouldnt worry about it though... are you protective over your car?

I really wouldnt worry - what are you worried about exactly and what do you drive?

I was sat outside the Bierodrome on the Kingsway a few weeks ago and you went past in your VXR Dizeee. Have to say if you are a person who believes loudness is the key feature of an exhuast then you must be happy with yours.

Personally it was a bit much for me...

smile
laugh

Would have just left work. Must have been a weekend... The car would have been cold hence it would have been particularly loud and no doubt banged a few times. It does settle down a little once it's warmed up though wink

Really, i thought it wasn't to 'over the top loud'..
Hi Issey...

It can be almost silent on tick over. Just gets loud when you use the loud pedal...

The Rover... I thought it was a 216... is it black with black wheels driven by a chubby chump who looks like he has the sincerity of an inmate? I knwo the one too I think...

Where did you see me then Issey. I keep getting spotted, getting creepy wink
