Clubber's Coupé Journal

They look great, much better suited to the coupe than the 108s in my view!
However they may make you regret the relative "comfort" of the old 18" set, so I would not go that road personally if that is a daily car.

They were too harsh on my short test drive. I just bought a set of 108's yesterday, will put them on once I return from out Italy Road trip.

BTW, I debadged the car, looks much cleaner IMO.

Quick question,

Those of you with CSL wheels, do you all have CSL style and not OEM wheels ? Cuz I tried the wheels of my M3 CSL on the coupe and they were almost an inch outside the fenders at the rear. Couldn't fit. Fronts were perfect fit though.
 
Lovely looking Coupe. :thumbsup:
OP may say poverty spec but at least it has PDC - mine doesn't. :(
Still it does have 108's already!
Enjoy the Italian trip - think I need to plan one of those. :lol:

Thanks Mr.Tidy,

PDC is a must in Istanbul so I had to have it. my 108's are on the way but it seems I'll have to settle for the 17's for the Italian trip. Although I must say, after I switched the runflats to regular tires on 17's, the ride is super comfy, almost like a 5 series.
 
Quick question guys,

how do I know if my car has sport suspension or not ? It doesn't show anything from the vin. Could one of the experts here check from my win if my car is sport or SE ? VIN : LE99023
 
Well, mine lists M suspension and an anthracite roof lining - which I'm assuming means mine is a Sport spec car and yours is an SE. What colour is your headlining?

I guess there's always the possibility that mine is an SE and has had all the sport options ticked... :?
 
Welcome aboard. The call of the Dark side grows strong, with this one. As mentioned a few times. Get your new Zed out on the open road nice and warmed up and rag it for a few miles. The're sports cars, they like to be driven now and again. :driving: If it has spent it's life pottering to Waitrose and back. then no harm in changing the transmission & gear box oil. Surprised it hasn't had an Ins 1 already at 30k.
 
Thanks guys, already back from the Italian Job :)

The car opened up beautifully in fast Italian roads. 100 octane Shell V-Power helped too. It runs like a champ now !

Fitted the 108's last week,

Given that the OP lives in Istanbul, I would imagine that he chose Italy for the sedate, considerate and careful driving style. Everything is relative. The Istanbul taxi drivers scrap their cars with the middle pedal untouched! :o

Nice looking car and some great pics.
