"Aiden,The R90's in the uk cast a whopping £2k however I'm in secret talks with my dealer trying to do a deal about swapping my S spokes with a small amount of cash for them."


I traded my 17" wheels and tires which came with the Chili pack and got my R90'2 for £1200. They quoted me £2000 for the R90's and that included tires.

The aero spoiler looks like a duck's ****. Anyone puts that on my car, they are in BIG trouble.

Of course, there may be some people out there who like the wild fowl look.

Ordered my "S" August '01. Arrived July '02. EB with white roof, wheels and stripes, Chili pack, DSC and climate control. Hate those 17" runflats though.

Can now be seen all over the West Midlands, as a blue blur passing everything at speed

Aiden,

Had another go in my dealers demonstrator this afternoon which had the sunroof. You want an advice? Get it!!! It's fantastic whether it's open or closed

Really feel sorry my budget didn't allow me to get one

QQQ,

Did you think it was noisy though when open ??? The deflector is so big, it makes it really loud over 50mph or so......

smiffy,

Im beginning to think I might be too old for a bodykit though !!
