  1. Had my biggy service last year sparks included ok so i was on higher mileage than you, 70k at the time now 85500k… was only just over £600 for service tho…
  2. Ive apexi filter system in mine amber performance UK based £301 … had mine for 2 1/2 years now
  3. Yeah got it a wee bit smaller rather than standard size… just need to get a smaller front plate holder which suits car…
  4. another 100% clean MOT pass and still looking Fresh after 85150 glorious miles 👍🏻 still look back at her every time i park her up 😍
  5. I concur with hockeyedwards re the hiss…only ever heard it when ive filled up after running basically on fumes.. fill up as per norm no turning of nozzle for me either
  6. 🤷‍♂️ i cant get it in single figures regardless i floor it with sports plus and throttle commander on highest setting and everything open on exhaust… long or short journeys 🤔
  7. Best i had was 36.5 on a spiritive 600+mile drive 80% motorway 20% mix of A roads and dual carriageways early morning start … full prior to leaving 1 stop for fuel around Carlisle then top up at destination wether start position was from Elgin area N.E Scotland to Warlingham Surrey or vice versa done same journey/distance for a year and a half averaging 32.5.. lead foot sports+ and driven like ive just stolen it… these cars can give a decent mpg for 5.0 V8 was during the pandemic so roads where pretty clear 70% of the time
  8. Evicted out of double garage as missus wants it for a workshop, so ive got the lock-up garage at house now, in the middle of painting it and re flooring and fitting new lighting at moment… but here’s the before pics of the Fs new home actually more room in lockup 4ft spare at rear and at front and both doors open without hitting walls
  9. I use what Evers cheapest, not because im a skinflint but have never in my auto career ever had a vehicle suffer from performance issues because of the grade of fuel i put in, im a ex fuel tanker driver as well so i kinda know what’s what….supermarket fuel and E10 have made no significant changes in mpg or performance still runs like a dream and as thirsty as a alcoholic in the desert, and at end of day ive more money left in my wallet and can cover the same distance and as fast as the rest of yous putting in expensive stuff, if the is a difference in mpg it is barely noticeable and still not worth paying any extra but at the same time i dont think any of us bought a F thinking and worrying about the fuel costs, just the performance 👍🏻 and street cred 😂
  10. Glad im not the only one that noticed post header was wrong…. 😂 ISF 500… its a f-sport… sorry my belief of F being superior to the f-sports is raising its (and my) ugly head here lol but saying that id still have one but would never try and up badge it to a F status regardless its a 500
  11. I concur with you …i have 3 sets of alloys for my RCF and all fitted with tpms 19 OEM with OEM tpms all works perfect 2X 20” with good quality TPMS fitted which only 1 set 1/2 reads them ie are being read and no warning lights showing but does obviously if pressure goes down but it doesnt give me the individual pressure readings on dash… other set i have the warning symbol on dash, regardless garage spent ages trying to get car to read them……they wont marry up 100%
  12. This is what it will look like with carpets removed, i took mine out to dye them black, bigger job than you think so dont be surprised if there not removed to clean
  13. I have a black on black/red and never had any concern over my ownership with interior getting to hot the one that the salesman 😏😂 royoftherovers has mentioned looks in great condition and would be worth a visit to look over it,
  14. I was going to purchase that same system over 2 yrs ago from cezar but neither of us could get a courier to accept it and ship up to me in the N.E of Scotland, so i decided to buy new, and at the time GThaus was a 4-6wk wait, where as Armytrix was just a 3 day wait, and im very inpatient 😂 ended up costing more but im way way happy that i went the Armytrix system hope you get something sorted asap as its a VERY nice system youve got yourself, on another note… i always have my system switch to LOUD so really dont need a remote lol just need to leave valves open 😂 even when i used to start work at 2am in a quiet culdesac…. Neighbours loved me 🤔 honest🤥🙄😬 Once your sorted post a vid up 👍🏻
  15. Would definitely suggest getting the remote, I have a different system (Armytrix)with 2 remotes to work the valves and a app on my iPhone that also opens/closes valves along with giving me telemetry info on how the cars performing
  16. RC F and NX convoyed up from Surrey to North East Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
  17. Ive only driven about 12 miles in last 30 days as car was in at lexus awaiting a part that is no longer made for my car and wasn’t stocked anywhere in the world and needs to be specially made….so told them to put my car back together and return it asap as im moving next week and not leaving car down south for another 3-4weeks 607mile drive next week tho 😏😂 ps 🖕🏻 😉
  18. Also bare in mind that it comes very close to jacking points if you use a trolly jack, so watch you dont jack up on sideskirts, ive trimmed mine a bit as i have a large head low profile trolley jack so took a curve out where it approached the jack points,( not visible unless your under car) plus i used extra self tappers to get it 100% flush against body
  19. I fitted same kit on mine year and half ago….wasn’t happy with how cheap they looked when i unpacked them but once fitted and modified (basically i filled the void under the side skirts with foam sheeting cut to size and hot glued in to make it look solid and trimmed of the excess plastic bits on front splitter so it doesn’t create a wind drag…. they’ll do for time being… make sure you use a good 3m sticky tape stuff tho
  20. 😂 hadn’t even noticed that…… well im not musical either so statement still stands 😏😂 And still a lesbian 👩‍❤️‍👩
  21. Ive had numerous parts for my RCF via RR, just be prepared for customs to hit you hard… for example my front carbon F badge customs charged me a extra £36 ffs 😲
  22. I’m not homophonic, as im a practicing lesbian 😏
  23. Ahhh But i decided that i didnt have the right to don the beige interior, because im straight 😏😂
  24. I used to run mine with quarter window down, i disabled the bing bing thing 😏 ps my apologies for the crappy looking beige interior😆, this was prior to me ripping it out and going black and red interior
