Credit card has said no, learn to play with my current toys (maybe next year )

No Licence in this kit, that's for you to pay for with your tuner or buy an ECUtek kit to do it yourself. I don't need the Tune/Filter/Thermostat/Badge though as I'm already running 1.x

Dropping 5k on the card with no method to pay it back (without selling a kidney) I think is the opposite of building a credit rating

NO! STOP IT! Do you take kidneys as part-ex?

Don't get paid until the 31st

Still considering options and processing 1000's of photos from this weekend, right now a new laptop would be ideal but I'd need 60 sales from TSS photos and there weren't that many entries

Don't say that, you're reducing my chance of negotiating some cash off the price (edit: I can't afford it really, unless someone wants to buy a complete exhaust kit or suddenly everyone wants photos this weekend for the full season)

Sometimes filling up for fuel is the only human attention I get when on a late. Will try it once for the fiver of free fuel but I'd rather insert my card into a pump than rely on an app linking accounts and paypal and my cards.

If you like your car quiet now, changing the manifold will make it louder and probably alter the tone of the exhaust. Catless manifolds (and even some catted ones) are not quiet.

If it doesn't touch the cats (stock ones in place), solid construction and not fouling anything on the car then it shouldn't be an issue getting through an MOT. There is no requirement for noise but if you get a tester having a really bad day they might comment on it.

Lovely RS that. Love Ford blue (Told you a GT86 would make a better track car than your rubbish BRZ)

Thanks for the heads up, mine were starting to smear and other car they were falling apart.

My best guess would be it's an imported primo spec and the dash was replaced with one from the UK when registering it for UK plates so it could read in MPH, but the odo still shows in KM. Dealer/owner probably couldn't get the primo dash so fitted the more common regular one.

It wasn't accident repair, it's an import. Production shows as MFR May 2012 but not registered in the UK until May 2015. It's not a UK spec car. ODO in KM backs this up.

The primo did not have the digital speedo, but that wasn't available until 2014 through Toyota dealers, but you do have the primo lights

The credit card is fine, it's the earning at the end of the day to pay it off that's lacking right now. £5 a month for the next 30 years?

Should have bought a Focus RS m8. Take the M4 on track (I'd love the Ohlins but my budget has gone)

I got told off for only having 2mm left on my rears so I'd get them changed as soon as it's convenient.

If it was that much of an issue, I could have collected it for you

Do you know what stage the Cosworth car is currently set up at if it will be there?

Fit something to the car so it looks like ass 99% of the time so it looks good when it comes to sell on, compared to the car looking 99% good.

7.5 on the front, but 8.5 on the rear. Lovely wheel! The same as shown on the Cosworth demo car (fronts)

As above though, the rest of it is very well priced for Toyota main dealer servicing.

I'd say it isn't bad value, but the year 5 service usually has 1/3 off anyway as it qualifies for Silver/Gold rather than Int/Full, but they keep moving the goalposts on what qualifies and what doesn't. The others do offer better value than if you were doing them individually. Don't bother with the fuel treatment and engine flush, run the car on v-power and it does it for you. MOT has a £2 discount, can get it cheaper at kwikfit by a tenner but it's the convenience of it. AC service, if you have 1234yf gas (check sticker under bonnet) there is no chance they will agree to do the work for that price. Make sure year 4 includes brake fluid and rear diff oil changes, it should do for that cost but some have a habit of excluding "extras" like that.
