    Another big thanks for Jeff for his offer and help with the head unit on Saturday. 
    I was thinking of changing mine and seeing Jeffs in situ was a big help 
     
    Thanks again

    After collecting the wheels the car was filthy (Waze sent me down what effectively became a dirt track) so I gave the car a quick clean as I'd put my summer / track wheels on when I got back and they were the only clean bit!
    I got a new snowfoam just before Christmas - Bear Car Care Glacier and I must say I'm very impressed. First time I used it the foam was still on the drive and in the street the next day!



    Went out later and the foam is still on the driveway

    And some of the mud I removed!

    I had the same problem for the 1st time yesterday.
    With mine it was the passenger switch that was flashing so after googling it i found that i opened the window and when closing it i held the button in the up position for another 10 seconds after the window shut and it was back to normal

    Cheers Lauren/VAD,
    Long day out today. Shame half of the drive home was in seriously bad weather, but boy, it's good to be back in one of these!
    I'll definitely be getting to some club meets. The Barton one sounds great, as it's very close. I'm originally from Grappenhall (just over the water from there) and my folks still live there, so I am over quite regularly. When do these meets occur? Assume they're in the calendar? I'll take a look.
    One thing that came crashing home is the lack of torque and that pesky dip is frustrating after coming from a car developing over 300lbs/ft at 2000rpm onwards, but the rest of the car makes up for that in my opinion. I've seen a few comments on here about the TD NA solution and I think I'll look into this.
    VAD, The M235i I had is probably 80%-90% of what an M2 is for the most part. I did think that an M235i or better still an M2 would be the next move for me too that offers 4 seats, or in my case the ability to ferry a bike around internally. I think if I had enjoyed and bonded with the M235i I would have probably stretched and bought and M2, yet I have another GT86. I think that says it all really - well it does for my take on this.
    Quick pic of the car at the services before the light went and the heavy, heavy, heavy rain (I hope I am being clear about just how much bloody rain came out of the sky...) came when i got close to Leeds on the top of the M62.
    I look forward to meeting some of you very soon,
    Andrew.

    Nice. Looks like it's been lowered, is it on coilovers? Also non-stock exhaust though it looks like the rear valence is designed for quad tailpipes.
