    Nice wheels Shaunie! Are you missing an engine cover??


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,720 ✭✭✭Hal1

    Took the 5er down to Mayo the weekend. What a car for the money! It's extremely tight and I'm very impressed with the handling. It's not as 'floaty' as the 7er, much closer in terms of handling to the E36 M-Sport coupe I had a few years back yet with the luxury of the 7er. Used almost bang on the same amount of fuel that the 7er did on the same journey though. It's a 2.2 I6 as opposed to a 3.5 V8, I suppose it will rev higher at motorway speeds to be fair. Still haven't had the chance to clean and polish it, will get to that next week. ;)

    Its in the boot! The 1.8T is too pretty of an engine to hide behind plastic especially after cleaning 12 years of crap of it!:D

    Never really hankered after a BM before, but this was too good to pass. Now, anyone want to buy a cheap Civic???

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,449 ✭✭✭blastman

    Haha, I wish. Would be a Nissan GTR if that was the case

    Standard spec which is pretty good - cruise control, dual zone climate control, bluetooth phone kit, iPod integration, etc...
    The only option I considered was the Sat Nav but at €1k it wasn't worth it given that my phone already has turn by turn navigation, just on a sightly smaller screen.

    Just don't head up there late at night or you could end up getting more than pictures of your car.

    Nothing much happens up there after dark, other than maybe seeing a few deer.

    If you go up regularly you shouldn't be waiting long, I'd spend of fair bit of time on those roads. :D

    I've never been stopped by the Gards up there, if I am stopped at viewpoint at night it's usually just to eat some take away and then off I go on my merry way.
