Talking Wohoo! - 5 numbers on the lottery = PPP. Advice required on secs/gauges...

Wohoo! Wohoo! Wohoo! Wohoo! Wohoo! Wohoo! Wohoo!

£2,408 Which whilst being one number from £15m is better than a kick in the teeth.

I've gotta 04 WRX and want to keep the warranty intact.

So I'm gonna get PPP & want to get either a SECS or some Defi's - I'm hoping neither will affect my warranty.

cheers

question is, if you had got 6 numbers and 15m would you have sold the car or spent £100,000 doing it up?

Obviously you'd have a fleet of nice cars but you could have every conceivable mod and performance addon, think that would be much more rewarding than simply BUYING a supercar

Enjoy the winnings, PPP and a set of Defis will put a smile on your face for a while Start saving up for brakes and tyres tho

If I'd have got 6 numbers, then I'd have handed my keys to a mate and got him to give me lift down the 'rari garage. I'd prob get a T25 as a runabout though.

cheers all for the well wishes

I've never won anything but I guess that's my lottery luck used up

Question

A measly £2.5 k for getting 5 numbers? Is it just me or does this seem a total rip off?

BTW I don't play the lottery.

I got five numbers back in March and scored £1689
One more number would have pocketed me £5.5m and no other winners

Congratulations

Go for PPP and the Prodrive Springs IMO. You'll be too busy concentrating on the road and grinning inanely to have time to be looking at fancy dials and guages

Well done, I got 2 numbers

Got to agree with DJ Dunk. Unless you tune the car to within an inch of exploding, the guages are nothing more than a toy. If you must, one or the other not both, and I'd probably say defi's. A more worthwhile gizmo would be an Origin B2 with LRC400 Prodrive springs, droplinks and ARB's, then some brake upgrading (DS2500/RS4.2.1/1155/Reds plus braided hoses and 5.1 fluid) would be higher on my list. Then some nice lightweight alloys with good rubber. But, each to their own. ENJOY.

Ok so I already have the Prodrive spings and quickshift and I want to keep my warranty intact.

I also have an radar/laser detector which'll do me 'til they're banned.

I am thinking about the Prodrive 294mm disc upgrade which is £330 from Subaru (+ fitting I'd imagine) - Would I be better off just getting some decent pads or should I do both?

I might put gauges/secs of for a while though - mebbe a xmas pressie
