4i goes on saturday
the new car... i LOVE IT i thought my old 12vs were torquey but fuck me this is in a different league...
unfortunately i keep accidentally hitting the limiter in 2nd and 3rd gear as im not use to it revving so quick... lol
reverse gear is a BASTARD to engage tho
the lift up thingie is underneath the gaiter n its bloomin 'orrible... lucky the quickshift willbe fitted saturday eh! lol
there's only one problem... THE REAR TYRES ARE TOO GRIPPY
