Default Pressed the button

OK, so after a few months of looking around, a couple of years of second hand exposure from Useful, a trip or two round the ring and a bang on the head. I've gone ahead and pressed the button on a new S.

Mid December is the delivery date and that suits me fine.

I'll be asking questions about which induction kit, exhausts, cat/decat and paint sealants, once I've read through the historical info on here.

NineBolts, got the PM from you looks like 15th of december is a good time if you decide you want my HKS thus we save on P&P. Have a chat to Useful, he had a good listen to mine on the IOM and I'm pretty sure he's got a similar exhaust (not sure if it's the full stainless or not).

Still not a bad place to start and it'll continue to hold value for a while

Here are some piccies of the exhaust before it came off, I've given it a good going over with the brasso so it looks good except for some discolouration on the pipes backboxes look pretty much as new, all of which is to be expected .
