How do you find the 4WD Nick? I took the car out for a scalp on Saturday evening and I was pushing hard, no matter how hard even in Sport+ it only let the rear end to a certain degree. Otherwise was all grip, hard to believe it's a family estate at times !
@PeteMoore i was shocked at how well these went when I test drove them, I knew they would be quick but didn't realise how quick. The engine along with the sport auto is the perfect combination.
I've never had a BMW before but I can see why people rave on about them at times, it just feels so solidly built. A few people have give me a bit of stick for going with the xdrive but I like how it handles.
A lot of people say to ditch the run flats to improve the ride and road noise (not that I find it too bad) but I will wait until they are worn, no point in wasting four new tyres! Even with the run flats and ACS springs it's still a lot more comfortable than the S3 was.
WOW. That looks like some jeb!
I ordered an M Performance front splitter today seeing as I got a really good price, just have to keep an eye out for a rear diffuser now.
If you're looking for the full kit, Cotswold BMW quoted me £1200 delivered.
FYI Nick, My yolk is in for its 1st service today. (15k in 6 months!)
2 of my wheels are starting to corrode around the centre cap area. Apparently they are very aware of it, something do to with the edge of the hole where the BMW centre cap slots in. Anywho, they are replacing both wheels and will continue to do so if any of the other 2 go aswell. Apparently the "new/replacement" wheels have a more rounded edge at the centre cap (which they say cant be seen...).
