Ye

They gave me two front seats instead of three but actually prefer it so not said anything. Its not that slow considering. Not sure if MY17 or 18 but it has this.....

As the MY18 vans come with that sensor for autonomous braking, which looks the same as the one for ACC, does this mean that previous model yr vans with ACC fitted also have autonomous braking?

Looks awesome! Welcome to team white and team Devonports !

Thanks @Buggirl however the Devonports will be coming off this afternoon and replaced with Sportlines.

Hopefully someone on here will want them as they look really smart (only 180 miles old and have decent Continentals on them)

You cheeky sod, Im making good progress given its been under 24hours since it was delivered lol

I am looking at a 50mm drop next but may have to wait to acquire springs dependent on how quick the owner saves up for his B14's.

Fyi - Im not sure what people are saying in regards to the DSG but mine works better than any auto I have driven recently. The 150 engine is perfectly fine and it shifts well for a van.

Van getting measured up for wrap in early August, the guys at Cheshire Signs were fantastic and their attention to detail was in line with my OCD.

But but but they're going to make it bright pink!

 

[PukkaT6]

Its purple lol

I make myself feel better by reminding myself 'its a free van'

 

[former member]

Oh purple is not so bad.

 

[PukkaT6]

It is a shame covering the Oryx though.
