    Cambelt?

    Agree with the above.

    Sounds like my car 2007 3 door with 195k on the clock.

    Reliable enough but burns oil.

    I ‘fixed’ the odd oil leak with some cardboard in the garage haha

    I quite like the wheels.

    Reminds me of Tessarossa wheels.

    Not a fan of Japanese wheels on Euro cars

    Even though many new cars come with large low profile wheels due to aesthetics (and ride quite well), I do wonder how much better they would ride if they had smaller wheels and higher sidewalls.

    The only true way to find out about the condition of your oil is an oil analysis.

    But for the sake of $100 and an hour of your time, it gives you peace of mind.

    I suspect there could be more than one type of Valvoline SynPower XL-III.

    I know Valvoline SynPower XL-III C3 is 504 507 approved.

    I'd say the dealer is using the 504 507 approved version.

    Heard the old 6.2L C63 today.. sad that the noise has changed (for the worst) with the new turbo V8.

    Upcoming C63 will be 4 cyclinder..

    Will be a sad day when all cars will be electric.

    Of course you should consider it but it's a long time before it will be released in Australia.

    Depends on how long you can wait.

    I'd look at the i30N coupe or Civic Type R in the meantime.

    Ha, that's the exact video I used for direction.

    The only tip I can add is to make sure you don't drop the screws when removing or installing screws. I would imagine you'd never find them again....

    Nice one.

    I'm a big fan of M3 coupes, especially the E46 and E92. Both sound awesome in different ways.

    However for the F82 M4, I actually prefer the F30 M3.

    The M4 looks more like a GT than...
