Well, you were right about the new owner cropping up on here - I didn't trade the mk111 in for it though. If you knew how long I'd searched for that exact spec, colour, trim and mileage....you'd realise why I paid £12995

So i have had the IS-F for one week and i have realised one or two things. Aged 55 and i counted the days until i collected the car, not felt like this since my 3.0s Capri ( a 2 door hooligans Ford for those of you lucky enough to be under 45) I am taking the longest route on every journey. The superb Mark Levinson sound system has been redundant, just drop the window and listen to the exhaust note. Everyone in the office wants me to take them out in it. The Mini that i planned to use to keep the fuel costs and mileage down on the IS-F has not turned a wheel all week. I cannnot walk away from it without looking back. I was out on a "spirited drive" yesterday afternoon and realised i would probably not have gone much faster, if at all, on either of my motorcycles. Pleased is an understatement!!!!!

I saw this also and have been tempted. Once i get my car to the RR i'll give it a try and see what difference it makes. I thought it was the opposite of what Colin said tho. I thought it increased low down torque but suffered high end. I guess only one way to find out.

Handbrake is adjusted at the Handbrake........ remove leather cover, you will see 2 nuts, a locknut and an adjuster nut, loosen locknut, adjust other nut till happy, do up adjuster nut........... re-fit leather cover..................job done
