Bought a 355 two weeks ago, it's in great shape but the noise left me wanting more....

Dropped it off this morning to have a Capristo fitted, can't wait to pick it up...

Thats all!

I bet it will sound pornographic. I've got a sports exhaust on mine and WOW it's unbelievable.

I was told I needed new manifolds, which I suspected already but hoped was not the case....

So....

Took the decision to have manifolds and exhaust but it wont be ready until tomorrow night.

DO NOT tell the missus as my 'war chest' is empty,

It will sound doubly good and doubly expensive!!

Ok Picked car up today with the exhaust (and new manifolds) and WOW...

Had a very fine lunch yesterday so felt a touch delicate today and it was raining so essentially just drove home to St Johns Wood, but the Hanger land underpass was a taste of things to come, the noise is epic and it now sounds like a proper Ferrari


Roll on a sunny day and a trip out somewhere pleasant!!

Miles away in Canada Water. But am always keen to go for a bit of a hoon into the countryside to a pub.
