@AutoPap Just covered the first 1,000 miles of ownership in mine today 😃
No real complaints
Son 3D printed an adapter that we designed and I fitted the CarPlay unit tonight 👌🏻
A nice bit of modern tech 😎
Great little car. Rotary dials, proper push buttons.
@hjwakerley Those F80’s are really not nice.
Saw one at Ferrari Challenge at Silverstone last week.
Design team had a few days off I think 😝
But the Daytona SP3 is incredible up close 🤩
@PaulCowland_@MomoMotorsport@bgdirect Lovely Paul 😍
I had an Accord Sport (Type R shape) years ago and I changed the oem knob to a MOMO Race Air Leather/Aluminium
Identical to yours at the top (leather) but the lower hemisphere was aluminium 👍🏻
Top mod in a Scooby though
The door shuts on our 3rd generation MINI (2014-2024) have been scraped by the constant closing and hardness of the seal on the inside of the door (common issue)
Fitted some Door Shut Protection film from Cyclistick on eBay
Brilliant solution and fits perfectly👍🏻
So happy 😃
@Trickyred1 Managers should get a yellow card if they move out of their technical area
He’s a menace on the touchline tbh, gets so close to opposition players
But then again they all do.
No ones worse than Unai Emery
@SimonCarGuy Great video Simon thanks for the “behind the scenes”. 👍🏻
What a paddock! 😍 certainly some incredible machinery in there
The Encor’s lines are so clean 😎
Look forward to the next vid 👌🏻
@AutoPap Are your guys particular at looking after your matte paint?
I mean they don’t cover it all in silicon do they ? 🙄
How are you finding the upkeep of that finish?
@AutoPap Understand your point entirely.
What if you had bought say, 10 ‘normal’ cars at £15k each 10 years ago? 🤔 totalling £150k
What would they be worth now?
£50k ?
Whatever the car, it always needs maintenance.
The Porsche £215k value is basically break even then 👍🏻
@AutoPap Everything you need.
And nothing you don’t. 👌🏻
Just bought a Minix CarPlay unit for mine 😎
And son is 3D printing me a custom mount we’ve designed to fit the oem dash dock 😃
Cracking little car 🚗
Cooler weather and a bit of shade today 🙏🏻
Finally got round to machine polishing the GTI roof 👌🏻
Cordless with the Rupes HLR75 and their polishes, pads and colour matched buffing towels 😎
@Trickyred1@Kesselwaerter Yep I think you’re bang on. 1983 we had our Commodore 64. It was the original shape, like the Vic-20, not like the C64 in that advert 👍🏻
BTT. I’d have the Amiga too. 1meg version
Me and @Trickyred1 had an Atari 1040ST after the 64
That was a great machine.
This is one of the most amazing cars I’ve seen up close in a long time
At Ferrari Challenge / Passione Ferrari at @SilverstoneUK
The Daytona SP3 😍😎
I couldn’t stop going back to it.
Amazing 🤩
@TomBlackmore90 😉
😂
You LOVE them 😎
I’ve had Clio 172’s, 182’s, 200’s, but never a Meg
Nearly bought one once and it was down to that and an EP3 Type R and I got the Type R
Looks nice that one Tom 👌🏻
After sorting the indicators, replaced the headlight bulbs on the Up GTI with Osram Cool Blue Intense 5000k H4 bulbs from AceParts eBay shop
£13 well spent 👍🏻
You can see how yellow the originals were and now they’re much whiter!
Look clean 😎
Upgraded the indicators at the weekend in the Up GTI to chrome to get rid of the “fried egg” look 🍳
😃
Cheap upgrade £6 from AceParts eBay shop 👌🏻
Lights look fresh and clean now 😎
