I quite fancy these new side repeaters the stock ones on the pre-facelift are terrible

Well that’s my theory

I did the stubby mod on my E85 and the reception was OKish in towns and citys but terrible when out in the sticks...I changed back pretty sharpish. I think the DAB would be even more sensitive to this. But its a cheap mod and easy to revert..let us know how you get on with it....
+1 for the side repeaters, the originals are horrible in comparison.Phoenixboy said:I fancy lots of things but can’t do it all at once.greg81 said:

I live near Exeter too and have the same 296 wheels, and used South West Wheel Repairs in Exeter for a wheel which looked very poor (I bought them second hand and one had been fairly badly scraped). They sent it off to somewhere in the South East beacuse of the diamond cut finish and it came back amazing. It was so good I couldn't tell it had been repaired. Well worth the price of refurbishing. I'll keep a look out for you!

not many about in Exeter area, love the rarity factor
Correct, the stubby doesn't effect the DAB reception at all.djstan said:

Looking great. Are you finding the car quite thirsty? I'm getting around 24mpg currently on a mixture of roads
Haven’t really checked it as I only use it on my 2 days off, but as I have been, let’s say, exploring its potential, yes the gauge does drop a bit quicker than the 2.5 , especially in sportgreg81 said:
Certainly fun in sport.
Really sharpens up the throttle response.
