    You'd take the pee if the positions were reversed. It's hardly a mess mate, just a minor hiccup.

    Not sure James, tbh the front of the car was under the car port so it may have distorted any sounds.

    Hardly any noise at all, both the R and C70 are louder than that. I'm sure it'll just need a tweak to get rid of the drone.
