"Car is running on wrong tyres (Good years), some bubbling on drivers side rear air intake, painted stripe showing stone chip touch ups (not sure why paintshield was removed), carbon fibre plenum cover missing and replaced with black painted ally one from std 360, paint missing from inside lip of passenger side front bumper air intake. Fire extinguisher missing. Considerable bobbling to drivers side seat bolster. Dash is BADLY faded.

Get the carbon brakes checked for wear !! Passenger C/F Door mirror chipped, Rear wheel quite badly marked on the inside??"

So, some minor cosmetic issues from driving the car and a couple of bits that need to be swapped? Christ, mine is covered in stone chips after the Highlands Tour. Am I just overly laid back about things like this?

NO you are absolutely spot on, but bear in mind the correct tyres will set you back min £1500 and dont even ask about replacing the discs. These elements are key to the cars performance!!

Discs I can understand. Carbon items are v pricey from what I understand. Same with clutch life.

As for tyres, I'm sure a set could be sourced, and I have my own views on various brands (as do we all on these forums)...

You bringing the Cali on Sunday?

CS has been set up to run on Pirelli Corsa tyres from the factory and this is all you should use.

It's often quite tough to tell what Drew is talking about. (my guess is yes but i could easily be wrong!)
