Hi All,

Just joined, I have a 2.0 Siii, not really any mods (yet) though I'm considering getting her wrapped in a gun metal grey. Love my car, they're a steal for the money but just wish I'd gotten the 2.7 (even if it does do 10 gallons to the mile ;) )

Welcome to the club.

I think it would be cheaper if you sold your 2.0 and bought a gun metal 2.7 v6.

They are always cheaper on eBay due to higher tax and fuel costs.

That way you are left with some money to mod

Thanks guys, I've been having a look around and this looks to be definitely one of the better groups! Plus, it's active (always a bonus ;) )

Tuscani TSIII: I would usually agree with you but I'd like to keep mine just because of the condition, she's not even done 50,000 yet and other than the rear arches (going to get them done properly with new metal) she's like new, though I do have a bonus from work coming so a second baby could be a good shout... worth a think

Welcome,

Don't believe everything you hear about the mileage on the 2.7, i'm getting almost as many miles from a tank as i did from my 2.0, mind you it is all motorway miles. Got my 05 for a damn good price and i've just gone past 34k
