He will be wasting thousands.

remapping is a reprogramming of the ecu to alter things like air/fuel flow etc to give the car more power.
I knar it’s a sure fire way to wear your engine out quicker and have never understood it.A car manufacturer doesn’t spends millions setting a car up for someone to fuck about with it for £300.If you want a faster car gan buy another is my take on it.
Had a transporter remapped from 84bhp to 125bhp. Best thing I did. It was hopeless without it. Can't see how it would wear the engine out quicker when the same engine is spec'd from 84bhp to 140bhp by vw.
 


nowt worse than car craic like, promising thread completely hijacked, like being stood at the bar talking football and tits and Jeremy Clarkson wanders over. Golf is probably as bad but there'll be a massive overlap anyway

do they obsess over other machines ? My new Panasonic 1200w GTX Micro can defrost a loaf in 43 secs phwoooooarrrr eh ?

General football crack is pretty dull aswell mind.Anyone who talks about football constantly is generally a bit of a pleb.(see bloggers like jamsarny etc on YouTube as proof)
 
Most football fans think they know loads about football and certainly more than successive SAFC managers.

This is despite the fact most of the managers we have had have spent a lifetime in the game.

The truth is all managers need a bit of luck.

Reidy got it and was successful- some others - not so much.

But this is about neighbours so ... Jason kylie errr Marge and that’s it.
 
This one sold for double that
Lass I work with, her FIL had a 22B laid up in a garage since 2004, sold it just before Christmas for well over 120.
Mental, but good luck to the bloke, he can afford it
 
All coming together..

Impreza's are only driven by chavs. Big bore exhaust doing 15mph sounding like a tank. A knackered old 1997 corsa sounds the same.

I live in a cul-de-sac of 3 houses and the “shared driveway” (street) is our responsibility jointly to maintain.

My next door neighbour dug out the street 4 times on Tuesday, even though everybody was at home and the snow was covering it faster than he could dig it out. On Tuesday night my wife put in our WhatsApp group for him to to bother yesterday because none of us were going anywhere and it was forecast for snow all day. He was still out at 8 clearing it and it covered over and was over an inch thick again by about 10. I text at lunchtime to say that the snow was forecast to stop and I would pop out when I finished work at about 4:30 to start digging. Within half an hour he was back out again, digging. And surprise surprise it covered over again.

We went out at 4:15, 4 of us dug it out for an hour, and gritted the street. We’ve had zero snowfall overnight and he’s been out again for the last 45mins.

He’s meant to be have been working from home since last March (as have I) but for most of the summer he was interfering with the gardeners they had in to landscape their garden for several hours every day, and since Monday he must have been out 3 hours a day shovelling snow.

Most iconic car over the last 30-40 years if not ever.
Haha. Iconic car ever...if a chav won the lottery, that would be their dream car. The Colin Mcrae one in blue with gold wheels blasting out Scooter from his entire ripped out back seat speakers

Not just my words mate but the words of the most respected motor journalist in the world atm.
 
On the basis that I like to look after my garden, take my and the neighbours bins out/in, play golf (and clean the club's / trolley outside in full view of the rest of the street), clear snow and have a car capable of '0-60 in 5 seconds' ( Seat Cupra ST that is washed and waxed regularly for the other car bores) I must be a prize sad bastard neighbour.

And there was me thinking that after 35 years of bloody hard graft I was just enjoying my time and money 😉

Looks like a proton with an ironing board on the back. Driven by chavs. So it beats the Mini, the VW Beetle and the Shelby Mustang as the most iconic car. Who is this most respected motor journalist in the world atm?, Goldie looking chain?
 
Blokes on a forum discussing who has the most boring crack :D it's me by the way
