  1. Nope...most of the time most of the drive is to the front wheels so they wear more than the rears....
  2. Just had an email giving details of a tyre deal: https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/2353519-michelin-pilot-sport-4s-car-tyres-10535-f1-autocentres-3200072?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=position_5_button&utm_campaign=20-03-2019 Worth checking out....
  3. Strangely I will be in September when I’m walking it’s length with a friend. Thanks for offer....
  4. Thanks for the replies. Looks like I’ll have to upgrade to pro.....
  5. Does anyone know if it’s possible to use the app within obd11 to activate the five brake light mod? Ive seen you can long code it but only have the app... Cheers.
  6. Definitely. I now have a clean ram air filter, re oiled and ready to go. Shame I only have one air box...
  7. I bought my R from VW Derby. I’ve had it a year now and decided to replace the filter with a BMC I picked up on here. imagine my surprise when I opened the box and found a very grubby ram air filter with what looked like treacle everywhere...my car has had catarrh and I didn’t know. Anyway, filter replaced and immediate noticeable difference in sound mpg and throttle response. The point I really wanted to make was that the dealer had supposedly serviced the car twice in a couple of weeks prior to me buying. Once, as required by age, and once as part of the sales procedure. Yet they’d left an aftermarket filter in place. The car came with 2 years warranty still left. Theoretically, I would never have known it was not Oem....
  8. I followed the article on here for the exhausts, Simoniz primer and black top coat. All sourced from fleabay... Would you believe the spats were Halfords gloss black! They should have come gloss black but the finish was poor. Some areas didn’t look like they had any finish at all. Some careful light sanding and they took the paint really well. Get lots of comments about my back end.....
  9. Then it started to rain so I moved indoors.....grab handle.....carbon wrapped, done...
  10. I’m of a similar mind. This looks like it simply sticks on over the existing spoiler and appears to overhang at the sides. Not for me I’m afraid. Looks good quality though.
  11. The hubs were the first job I did when I got the car in March..smooth hammerite with a brush. Its all about the prep, nice and clean and plenty of masking tape...any over-spill on the disc comes right of with a bit of thinners. They still look mint today and just wash clean.
  12. That's a brilliant reply! Every question I had answered. I'll look out locally to see if there is aTWS nearer to me. Sounds like a very good service and price. Cheers...
  13. I'm also thinking of a refurb on my prets next spring....so seeing yours has helped massively for the colour... out of curiousity was it a full strip down and powder coating? If so do you you mind sharing the cost? What sort of time scale?
