Think about subject matter, composition etc


Good luck!

Car is due a 3 year service soon- does anyone have any oil recommendations? At the moment it's purely road use but it's not a daily drive. Thinking it might be cheaper to supply my own oil.
How many litres does it need and what grade?
Does Oilman do any good deals?
Cheers.

OMG

Yesterday evening nice and sunny at last, had the Lotus keys in my hand then looked at my mountainbike (it is very nice) ummed and aahed and in the end decided to ride my bike instead! Whats wrong with me ?

Inspired by PhilS Rover Turbo transplant, I thought it might be interesting to see what people would stick in their car.

To keep it simple and possible, stick to in line 4 pots or smaller!

Here are couple to kick it off....

VAG 1.4FSI Twin Charger...175Bhp both Turbo and Supercharged..Manges to get a golf along only a wee bit slower than the Gti. Yet does 40Mpg in a golf...So would do better in an elise!

BMW 2.0D 170Bhp Diesel and does 55Mpg in a 3 series...Imagine all that torque....ok limited revs....

So what you go for?
