    PS2 vs Dunlop Sports Maxx

    Re: PS2 vs Dunlop Sports Maxx Have been running on the GR80 for about 43,000km now, time to look for replacements.

    SPC petrol for BMW

    Re: SPC petrol for BMW Second that statement about the juice they sell @ Esso/Mobil. Caltex is pretty good, personally find the engine run a tad quieter than it does on Esso. Tend to give Shell a miss cause somehow my engine burns rich and the out gas smells as if its loaded with a fair...

    320 i going at 139 K
