Lovely, lovely car. Like the many features.
If my sat nav was in the centre console I'd end up in the back of a bus or similar.
I prefer them mounted on the windscreen.

Jag one is in the centre console & is repeated onto the instrument binnacle. It does however speak as well which is what you rely on.
This looks fantastic, any more details CPR?

As soon as they do full head up displays like modern jet fighters I will be happy.
:wink:

I second the more details.

Stephen, TBH once you get used to it it becomes second nature. If you need it a quick glance is all it needs as it is a 7" screen I understand to55e....BMW do head up displays.

Thanks for the kind words.

The NAV talks so that helps. The car is at a local speedshop getting some "touches" and expected to return end of the week. I'll post some more detailed ones then.

And sorry about the size of the pics, I was unsure of which size to send (smaller next tme).

Excellent car there CPR. Did you do the engine work yourself and what power are you putting out now? Should get mine back Wednesday with similar bits fitted. Those wheels are lovely :love4:

Thanks,

Most of the work is being done by SSi Performance In Maryland as they haeva dyno for proper tuning. While we were doing the upgrades I opted to do alot of "while your in there" type work. Heater Bypass valve, Venturi delete, New LR vacuum lines, hoses, balance shaft/cam tower gaskets, Cometic head gasket/Head re-deck, new upgraded water pump/t-stat, power steering lines, misc. hoses & bits.

Should be right around 330 RWHP @ 17psi. We are going a bit reserved on the tune for longevity.

Looks really good and a nice set of upgrades, but your sterring wheel is on the wrong side!

Liking that splitter, where did thats come from?

I know exactly what your saying with that "while your there" feeling :lol: Took mine in for it's MOT 2 months ago and it's still there.
I'm printing off what work you've had done and showing it to JMG garage who are doing my upgrades as most of it doesn't make any sense to a simpleton like me :oops:
Just been looking at the Fabspeed website again and going to see if JMG have got any nearer to getting my 3" exhaust made.

The rear wiper parks in a funny place.
My heart missed a beat cos I thought you'd relocated the motor it in the centre of the hatch....

Great car CPR. Like the smoke rear window. Like the hole thing really. Parts for these cars loads cheaper than here. Used to get a lot of parts over there but the exchange rate killed it. Body colour door handles look pretty good too. 8)
