Decided it's time to get my ride thread up and live!
Have already bugged a few people on the forum and gotten to know a few.
Before I get stuck in - @"admin" who do i contact for a fanatics sticker? Think that's critical.
Have had HRH [as she's been dubbed] for a WHOLE month now :smilebounce:
Absolutely loving the car. Comfortable, responsive, good on fuel, and I think it's quite pretty for a stock car [No one make comments reminding me what Ms'2 look like #oneDay].
So far I've done just over 3k km in her. First up was a trip to Durban in December [before Oom closed the beaches] - and I've never had a car eat up Kms like she did. Good way to get to know the car! Effortless to say the least. Averaged 5.0l/100km on the way down.
At the coast well, we all know what sea air does for performance. Had some more spirited driving down there, and trips to the beach and returned a 5.9l/100km consumption for the trip down + driving around there [excuse very salty screen - NOT scratched, just sea air things].
Anyway!
Since returning from Durban, did a few service items:
- Air filter
- Oil service [as easy as can be!]
- ZF service [best customer service and professionalism around! Awesome guys. Shout out to Tumi!]
Few very small mods done so far [in pics]:
- M4 style mirror caps
- Gloss black kidney grills
- M4 style boot spoiler
- 20% rear window tint - have to say it makes a big difference with light and heat inside. Left front windows with s&g as night time with dark windows isn't fun [or legal!]
Car is busy having the exhaust done [30d cant be quiet, that's a sin!], so will add those posts in the next few days.
Undecided about how to 'finish' the front. The MP diffuser and lip is nice, but somewhat common I feel? I wouldn't mind just the lower lip section without those insets. Love to hear thoughts!
So far - BM life is good.
