Yeah i thought about taxing it but don't want to spend another £150 in case i don't get it back :(
Cheers guys thats what i thought to be honest, its got full history and part of it is Volvo, i have put a £1200 reserve on it so will see what happens, the tyres and everything else are excellent.
Hi everyone well as some of you know i recently bought a v70 t5 and i absolutely love it, but sadly with a change of work circumstances i can't afford to keep it and have bought a diesel instead,...
To be quite honest mate i don't like it,,, we have a mondeo on an 07 plate at work with low miles and its had 2 new heads in the last year due to it basically melting the valves and seats, and thats...
What is the normal cost for a remap?
A mate of mine runs a Cupra r and its a bit of a project car as he runs a re mapping business and his cupra is mental, i think its about 340bhp at the moment but will be 400 by the end of the year,...
yep it works very well and would be very simple and cheap to build up a kit and just to use when its really needed
last year we did the same with nitrous and just used a small shot in the up pipe around 60bhp but it helped the turbo spin up very fast and kept the charge seriously cold too
We have just fitted these to the drag bike and iat is down to about 24 degrees and i can now run the same amount of power with 10psi less boost ...
How about nitrous to cool the charge temp down?
oh great lol thanks for destroying my day lol,,, might just get the map turned down a bit then as its a 210bhp map
problem is mate i am also a keen biker with a road bike and my huge passion is drag racing which i ride a superstreet hayabusa turbo in the ACU race series so obviously not too cheap :(
its not by choice mate :( i grew up with Audi's everything from 90 sports and quattro's to the old 3.3 coupes and my dad once had a 83 ur quattro turbo aqnd i never ever got that sound out of my...
Well the last few weeks have been awesome as i finally got a car that i have wanted for many many years a v70 t5 it needed a couple of tiny jobs like the usual tickover issue which was cured by...
I can't see you losing traction on a awd especially with it being auto,, get it remapped mate
so true,,, these §§§§§§s don't even feel fast until ya try and slow down lol
I was actually quite surprised with mine as even though it doesn't feel massively quick it did still perform very well against my mates 330d beemer last night and he has over 700nm of torque and is...
just fitted a new clutch switch,, £45 not cheap but i now have cruise control so lets see if its better on the mpg before i decide whether to keep or not
thats according to the onboard computer so probably not that accurate, i reset it when i got the car and before i reset it it was showing 20 but after about 300 miles or so its 18 and thats with...
mmm how much are ya looking at for it mate?
i probably will mate but 18 to the gallon is gonna kill me :( anyone want to do a deal with a diesel??????
Why? did ya get the codes checked when it was serviced?
not done one before mate is your engine is the same as mine t5 me7 if so i'll tell you no problem
thats the thing i can't afford it as it seems pretty heavy on fuel and i'm not exactly a boy racer lol but can i really keep another car insured etc just sitting there for weekends? mmm
