    carbon fibre side covers ?!?

    They don't even look real carbon, the weave is all over the place on the top one of first pic and has a vertical lines in it. The bottom one has a weird distortion in the weave. I think its dipped and they are trying to pass if off as carbon that's not even worth the price of the eBay ad!

    Suspension failed MOT, coilovers/ return to standard.

    It is my project car/ toy and I do have a 5 Series Touring as my daily and I've got used the lowered look and quite like it. I'm not really planning on selling it anytime soon. So I could happily spend £700 on the set up when I can afford it. But the end of the day it is only worth 2-2.5k, so...

    Suspension failed MOT, coilovers/ return to standard.

    Setting up a correct coilovers height

    I changed mine from the 17 to 18 last summer and that made a nice difference too. Hardly any roll when cornering and only get a little trashy when going down single car width UK roads/ country lanes.

    Chinese Grand Prix - F1 question again, sorry!

    Alonso's wife looks expensive to keep happy! But let's face it wouldn't you just drive a F1 all day for several million a year, even it was the slowest? Not to mention the fame that comes with it, how many WEC drivers get paid the same or have the same media presence for 30 years+?

    My 2025 M40 violently fishtails under hard acceleration-traction control engaged. Can run flat tires handle the torque? Any suggestions?

    Sounds like someone needs to learn to drive better by modulating their right foot.
