I love it. A casual day normally means taking your tie off but in your case it means so much more
Love it.

i reckon 18-19 will find out sunday when i fill it up. not that i really care
the 1600 seems to make a lot of noise but doesn't feel all that fast although i can easily get myself into trouble with mr plod if i wanted to.
biggest problem i have at the min is that the rear springs that gaz supplied with my dampers are 200lb. the book says they should be 250lb even though gaz think they know better. after driving it abit more im starting to think that the book is right and gaz are wrong as the back doesnt feel as tight as the front and stiffening the shock to compensate just makes it unsettled and bumpy.
