Hi All,

Picked it up two weeks ago, today was the 1st day it wasn't raining & had time for a quick clean:

Body seems in good nick, does need a really good polish.

Extremely happy with it, came from a BMW E60 535d which was mapped to 340bhp & 520ft lb so was concerned this would feel slow but really doesn't. Not sure if it's been mapped already as it does pull really well. Car is standard apart from head unit.

DSG is so good, I had the gearbox mapped in the last car but this still loads better.

Got things planned, I guess standard items, intake, exhaust, suspension etc..

Brakes aren't that great at all but see you can easily upgrade to S3 / R32 larger discs & pads so will be sorting that out.

Already installed my Vibe slimline sub & changed headlight bulbs to Osram Laser as it doesn't have Xenon's which is the only thing that put me off but wasn't going to wait for ever as service history is bang on & the money was right.

Thanks Dan

Nice example!

You can tell if it's mapped or not if you can find someone local with VCDS.    My stage 2+ ED30 keeps up with 335 diesels and petrols easily enough.  Not sure if they were mapped or not though!
