I have always fancied Nurburgring - was invited on a trip there a few years back and always regretted not going. Would also like to see what the CS can do on the Autobahns!!!

Just read through the thread and your profile and realised who you are. I live on Kentwood hill and drive the silver blob wrx. I was telling my mate last week that I had seen you in a wr1 a few weeks back after not seeing your hawk around for a while.

Hope you're enjoying the cs400, you'll have to come along to one of our Sunday meets and give us a look at her

Mikey,

Where did you get the back bumper protector? How much? Would love one on mine to stop the golf clubs marking etc.....

Cheers

I wanted to get a camera for my 330S, but I can't justify a £500+

was hoping to get that for mine, but there seemed to be a stoc shortage when I was ordering - would be handy for when you drop the seats down too.

They just quote me £120 for the Step panel for the bumper as well.

My running services is getting more expensive everyday!

Suspect he is trying to get a few quid back on what I got originally

Remember this is a factory standard car, so you could argue you could buy a brand new 330S and spend £15k on mods to get to the same performance. But you kiss your warranty good bye and pay through the nose for insurance. This car was £150 less to insurance than my WR1 and £750 less than my version 10 JDM which has £20k spent in mods. Plus I have three years worry free motoring as I still have the warrenty.

Apols if someone else has already mentioned this you can get a Jap STi and spend a few £k on mods to get 400hp. This is the crux of the price tag issue that some of us had when the Cosworth version was up for £50k. You have a great car there of course (it's 400hp after all so what's not to like!), just paid OTT for 400 horses imho.
