No chance- I luv em- part of owning a limited edition model is that it has something that makes it stand out as different from the rest of the range....... the decals do look alot better in real life than they do on camera- homest

I know but I dont really care -- this car has done 3000 miles of city and country driving in 3 months..... its driven fairly hard, its certainly not a show car-- all my cars have had curbed wheels pretty quick, just get em fixed or new wheel every year.


That particular mark was done on the a34, moving out of the way of an ambulance in rush hour traffic- had to climb up the central reservation to make room.

So technically that curb mark saved a life.

I never mount the kerb to get out the way of emergency services! They dont pay for your wheel to be fixed so why should you

Looks smart, but..... Those stickers just look tacky IMO doesn't need them and spoils it for me. Yes I know its a special edition but everyone has special editions with stickers on nowadays, it doesn't mean much.

Also would look better lower with 18's but I can understand why you don't want to change that.

How much Torque do these engines produce out of interest?

Of course you shouldn't, some poor bastard got convicted for going through a red traffic light for an ambulance.

no, like bluecorsa said, someone got convicted of moving through a red light to let an ambulance past, the verdict resulted that he was legally obliged to follow the red light, but not move for the ambulance

but then im sure if you purposely move to block one that may be illegal

From some site...

If you find yourself stopped at a red traffic light and become the sole vehicle blocking the route of an emergency vehicle, then it may well be worth moving forward a few meters to advance it’s progress. This does not mean driving through the junction, just moving forward by a car’s length if it is safe to do so. This is a motoring offence, but it would be a strong defence to say that you assisted the progress of an emergency vehicle, did not gain from the situation and maneuvered with safety in mind. If in any doubt at all then wait for the lights to change to green before moving out of the way of the emergency vehicle

Edit: Sorry. Back on topic anyway
