I just dont expect a 430HP 4wd car to be that ballistic. Doubt its that much quicker than an RS4?! They aint that quick.

Ive driven plenty of performance drivers cars, shame i cant afford 100+k

Comedy aggro man in an A5 today - tailigating until we got to a hill then left for dust. Caught up at a roundabout (loads of traffic) and tailgated again then got blasted off again. Eventually I turned off and spotted the model - a 2.0TDI - LOL!!

Naah - not my style. It could be an 318d M Sport after all...

Often seem to get 2.0TDI Audis in various shapes trying it on - not quite sure why they bother!

Even a 3.0TDI is easy "prey."

Good.

Now go polish your M Sport badges - they are important when pretending you have an M3 even though they don't add a jot of performance to the car (in fact M Sport kit is heavier so probably slows the car down ;-) )

Sorry but I haven't been following your car buying habits.

Thanks for having a lame ar5e pop at my car though - always a mark of a true keyboard warrior.

Edit - hang on, the next car is an X5; a car that my nearly 60 year old inlaws have. Now let me recall - a pseudo 2.5 tonne 4x4 with M Sport tat hanging off it. Now who's laughing...

You really do have an inferiority complex

I was only joking!

I know you're happy with your SE etc.

My point (in jest) was that Mr. 2.0 Tdi would have known better than to mess with you had he seen the body kit/m badges whatever. Clearly in the real world that would not have been the case.

But i guess you really have shown you do have a sense of humour failure about your SE. I hope it's not brought about by any sort of eny! You know the sort where you can only justify you're own choices by denigrating the choices of others

Congrats on the new found power Andrew.

The TT Shop brought their one down here for us to dyno.



Made good power (Remap + Exhaust) and puts its down very well.

They achieved a 12.25 1/4 mile at GTi international. Another TTRS (don't know what mods) did a 12.09.

Hopefully things pick up

I'm in a good mood as i'm off for a 100 mile black in the fast datsun this evening to meet a fellow owner who has a new tubi exhaust on his! His mate with the F430 might be turning up too

Doh! However I'd say "denIgrating" is the wrong word anyway.

Mister - PITA does not mean it's quiet - quite the opposite. Just being awkward. They pay enough to be allowed to be awkward though.

Holiday booked yesterday so really should be smilier. I blame the surf - it's gone sh1te with no prospect of picking up for ages.

MB - LOL! Played a few times and ended up hating it. Not for me.

Plenty of running, boating, MTBing, etc to do but prefer surfing.
