[Dan1971]

Just done ....

Serviced with new plugs and standard air filter, oil and filter, pollen filter.

To do ....

Gonna go to a rolling road near me at TCS performance for a starting point hopefully by the end of this month, maybe next. Then I'm gonna look at an induction kit and cat-back exhaust. Gonna bin the union jack flags on the front wings, in favour of the standard 190 ones. Hopefully with the small mods, Ill get to that figure. Wheels could do with a re-furb. No other bits really. Interior's all good, and there's not a lot I can do to the exterior.

Stainless cat-back
De-cat
Front strut brace
Front fogs
New front disks and pads
