2000 miles and notice a change

MoOriginal · 11th July 2007, 09:19

Im not sure if anyone else has noticed but Ive really found this weekend that the car sounds amazing now on full pelt.

Its something that the passengers and myself have noticed this weekend that the sound of it is really roaring and buzzing along nicely at the top end.

The only thing I can put it down to is that Ive reached some sort of mileage milestone etc at 2000.

Mine has loosened up a bit since new - engine, suspension seems softer.

Is the "softer suspension" affecting the handling at all Kremmen? And how many miles on the odometer?

I'm not talking massive suspension changes, just a slight mellowing. It just doesn't seem as hard as when I first got it.

and - yes I have checked the tyre pressures

Currently on 3,500 miles.

hang in illegalhunter.
I'm way behind you. Too much dithering between head and heart.
Just glad I let the heart rule for once.

thespacecowboy · 12th July 2007, 01:11

yeah stop it, I'm likely early sep (will be ready earlier but forcing myself to wait for new reg)

£680 or so
There is a pack for sale on ebay at moment from Holdcroft.
Good price at that price.
