Well I had a load of fun with the Evo in the 10 months and 15k miles I had it but I thought it was time for a change.
Something a bit less manic and not so raw. The first choice was an E46 M3 but finding a good one for £11k with less then 70k miles was impossible soooooooooooo
I bought this and I gotta say I love it 
Its had a small fortune spent on it, the last big bill only last week costing £1700 for a new intercooler, air con unit, alternator and whole load of other parts from the main dealer.
Mods are spot on as well
Turbo back milltek exhaust with sport cat (bangs and pops )
Stage 1 remap from vxperformance switchable on/off through the sport button
1.9 cdti airbox system with full samco hosing and K&N panel filter
Sportline springs lowering -30mm front and back
Whiteline RARB
Full blue LED Interior conversion
Rolling roaded @ 285bhp/331lbft with graph
Here are a few pics of it

Just be aware of the Milltek, they are the best looking of the exhausts but so many have cracked on the downpipe, you do get a lifetime warranty with them just it's a pain in the arse if it goes.

Jesus Christ, I don't understand why people part with money for Millteks through choice.

Yep its got the xenon lights, cruise control and some other extras. I got it for a very good price 
Connolly - I've never really rated the place, its a personal thing. I'm sure the lot of yous will have a good day tho.
I've used Dastek in fife a few times now and found them to be a better place to use.
