Looks ok.

I wonder how the sale is going to be if production goes ahead, because none of its rivals have released utes before, I think. Even BMW wagons are hard to find on the roads. :P

Not sure if serious..

They did a decent job on the photochop though.

"...

But any well-heeled tradesman looking to replace their Toyota Hilux with an M3 pick-up should look at today's date."

You mean Toyota Hilux? I meant European market, like Merc, Audi, etc. I can only thing of Volkswagen Transporter range for tradesman. :P

Oh man! Until that last line I literally was swearing at the monitor the whole time!!

EDIT: Serves me right for not reading your whole thread title lol.

:rofl:

I thought they were being serious until the last paragraph or so, lol.

Here's another good one. It had me going until half-way through the article. It's the very first article on the page: http://www.autozine.org/0_News/Archive/2011_03/News_frame.html

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
