    No mate, electric, heated mirror with the wide angle tip... Blank cheque. (they're about 25 quid on ebay)
    the heater element fails on them for fun!
    19t, greens, 3" inlet, 3" downpipe with race cat, V70R catback, autotech map...

    310.2bhp / 333ft/lb

    Genuine parts? best thing to do with a P2 is take all the genuine bits off and set fire to them.
    Then replace the lot with nice, reliable pattern parts from GSF
    Worked a treat with mine lol.

    Hi yes in the real world we would fit best price parts.
    The work shop I was in has a nice fleet of very high power cars ( just like yours was if you know what I mean) just had a couple extras fitted.

    Don't make me laugh! £400, that's cheap as chips!!

    A new mirror glass for a top of the range Range Rover is £400, the mirror assembly is close to £1200. That's OTT.

    That's great but you do know it's not genuine and probably only last a few months when you use it in the winter.
