  1. Why are GTs so slow on Motorways?

    Um, badly worded, sorry; on the bike I don't really keep up with the "enthusiasts" with their knees down or at 100+ mph on the back roads. There's some fairly well known roads around these parts that are the highest risk for biker deaths in the UK. So, you know, I ride to my abilities (I did a...
  2. Why are GTs so slow on Motorways?

    I find that if you are on a m-way that you can do 70mph on, you're doing well (at least down here), so 60mph seems to be about right; that's got nothing to do with the GT though; I do that in my daily (RS4) or my toy cars (Monaro/GT). I do have a 15 month old at home, so I'm very much known as a...
  3. A lot of people selling up ..

    Mine is used once/twice a week... even a month sometimes as my life is hectic and the Mustang is often not suitable daily. I'm currently looking at replacing it, and two other cars with a single car that I can use every day, but the list isn't that long, and I still enjoy the Mustang. It's just...
  4. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Cheers chap; that's reassuring. I have to get exhaust tips - the Roush ones bolt on anyway, it'll just be welding the twins on (though that in itself may affect the sound). Something to think about!
  5. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    Cheap alternative... that fills me with "that gap shouldn't be there" dread. Anyone in the UK that can do it? (before I start mailing around!)
  6. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    About £100 in tax; I regularly import specialty Hot Toys figures from the US of about $500. Just makes the conversion roughly £1/$1
  7. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    That's pretty cheap. Did you get it from the US? I'd need to mate those tips to my Roush. I assume that's possible...
  8. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    You're a git. I want 20s, and some other bits... this IS nice though. I think it looks way better with 4 pipes. I saw an 18 yesterday. The rear was the only bit I liked. That nose... but anyway, the pipes area great upgrade.
  9. What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

    I definitely don't need that. Nope. Don't need it. Looks great though.
  10. The Never Ending Warranty Issue

    I do hope this is the end of it. Though for me, I suspect this would be the end of ownership as well. I'd always have that nagging feeling (been there, done that!) I echo the above; my first question would be that since I haven't "owned" the car for several months, that I question why I'm...
  11. The age old question of turbo Vs supercharger

    I followed a fair few LS turbo conversions and always thought the supercharger route was cheaper, less risky and easier to reverse. I don't know what the Coyote is like, but in my head, the same applies. Mind you, the fastest LS car I witnessed was twin-turbo'd and it was wonderful... and about...
  12. MY18 REVIEWS: The thread to put the press/owner reviews of MY18

    5th was supposed to be; then 6th... and now 7th. The 2019 car is a 6th Gen with a broken nose. Awful refresh :( So, for now, I'd err that a RHD car is years away at best, if ever. BTW, most of this came from RHD cars based on the same platform; VXR8. So, the work was mostly done, just...
  13. MY18 REVIEWS: The thread to put the press/owner reviews of MY18

    Bring it on, then. I'll buy a Camaro in RHD tomorrow (tomorrow being a long time away, and with express permission from my lovely wife!). That said, I expressed interest for the 5th Gen in 2009... and I'm still waiting ;)
  14. MY18 REVIEWS: The thread to put the press/owner reviews of MY18

    Ain't that a kicker? I mean, there should be room for all the pony cars here and they would, I think in RHD, be successful. The LHD bit - and to me, the dealer network, is the put off. I don't much care where the steering wheel is but having a good, solid, dealer network is important. I have a...
  15. MY18 REVIEWS: The thread to put the press/owner reviews of MY18

    Err... no. I mean, yes, the Camaro is being converted to RHD in Australia, but we ain't getting it. In fact, GM has said that the UK is not a market they've succeeding it, and so is of little interest, though the Mustang's success was a surprise. Both the 5th Gen and 6th were base-engineered...
  16. M2 Competition Pack or 18 Mustang

    Manual all the way!
  17. M2 Competition Pack or 18 Mustang

    Probably as they're an expensive option :P
  18. M2 Competition Pack or 18 Mustang

    Yep, I'd never ever get to leave a junction, or be let out of a parking space, nor change lanes....
  19. M2 Competition Pack or 18 Mustang

    Half the story. Sit in both; drive them. The cockpit layout and shorter bonnet make the BMW far easier to drive and park. There's no panacea, I know, but they are very different in practice.
  20. M2 Competition Pack or 18 Mustang

    It's not something I'm too worried about; there's a black one here at work, and a blue one nearby - but like 911s, if you know, then they're interesting. If not, it's just a BMW. I like the shouty cars - I'd love Camaro or Corvette, and my old Monaro always got nice comments. Having over 20...
