Looks awesome in the black! Not sure about your fairy lights idea, but stealthy black or the original white picture is the way to go

After all the money they paid for the "K" series and the production line , I suspect it,ll have one under the bonnet .......
And thinking of China and its technology base it can think itself lucky it isnt powered by a petrol engine normally used to pump water to paddy fields in remote areas

looks very nice... noone's commented on the audi looking front bumper though...
The 1.8t is very easy to tune though right so surely its the better option to get things started and then maybe bring in a 2.5/3.0t monster when sales have picked up. With the way it looks if that turns up here it would sell well.

They've played around with it alot. The K, or N-series as its now called has triple layer HG, uprated oil ladder, larger oil/coolant bores through the head/block and some other bits and bobs.

One of the TF test cars at Longbridge with the N-series fitted has apparently done over 100k miles now without any HG issues.

ive never seen a car come back to work with the triple layer gasket failed, we had some in which were done by other places and it had failed because it hadnt been done properly

to put it another way my cars now on 77,000 miles on the original head gasket, coolant immaculate, think aslong as the cooling system is up to it they dont tend to do so much
