How much is that as a job ?

I know you can get uprated ones, are they much better ?

Guessing its a fairly diy-able job.


I like to know the likely failures, how much the parts are and whether I can do it myself for just the parts price.

Brakes look cheap to do at least.

Got a specialist nearby who did some work on my 944, Tony Greatorex who has a good reputation.

Factory stock is best mainly due to NVH and ease of fitting. It is DIY but still takes a day and a bit of a sod to connect on the tranny. Pats are about £300.

Cheers, going to defer looking until the new year.

I told my eldest he could borrow the M135i for a bit a while back, he didnt seen all that fussed but has been busy and he rang earlier all excited and sorting the details out, not all bad I get his Fiesta ST in the meantime which I love and can save up a bit longer in the meantime. Should give me a budget of around 25 without needing to borrow.
