Wrap it. Then you can change it back easily.

Yep, that's why I start with the door closed on early mornings. I think it's lucky that we seem to have a fairly tolerant group here. As in, my car's a bit loud, but so's your leaf blower.

I'd take issue with the "more dangerous it is". German unrestricted autobahns being a major example denying that. And my experience of Italian autostradas is that they are immensely safer than the highways here in NZ despite having a 30 kmh higher limit that half the drivers ignore. Lastly...

They recognise the new plate on mine. Most wouldn't know any of the last 10 years of Mustangs

Same here across the ditch. They don't realise that we Boomers didn't pee money away on coffee's and trivial crap. And work/life balance was to actually work so you could have a life. (And a Mustang)

You shoul You should have told him it's the Dark Dog version.

You could just measure compressed length of the shock and compare to the travel to the bump stops from full extension As you know, some bike shocks have anti top out springs, internal buffers may be used on some brands as well.

The demo car I drove had some wind noise like that, mine doesn't.

Private road. It's ALWAYS a private road. :wink:

Some neighbours complain if your mouse farts.

Does it rattle if you shake the system with engine off?

All positive here. Lots of "is it new" and "how long you had it" comments. And people love grabber blue, which really surprised me.

They're OK. Taste is a personal thing.

You're right. Drive a late model German car here and people think you're an up yourself w⚓. But you don't seem to get that with US cars down here. In the 50's US cars were aspirational. As in aspiring to be a farmer because they were the only ones who could buy them.

Yeah but, we've also learned to not s**t where you eat. Don't piss neighbours off, they can make life unpleasant.

Which fuse did you piggyback off? I saw the that vid and tapped into the mirror power, which appears to work well. I'm also running JBV1 on a dedicated phone as the display. So, like you, I have the mute function within easy reach. Thanks muchly

I priced an M240i, around $NZ30k more. And with Euro servicing costs being what they are, there was no way.

This is what I do, and I start it with the garage door closed until the fast idle has dropped. Remote start makes this easier, and I do ventilate the garage well. Also, my neighbours kid has a bloody noisy baby Lexus which makes mine sound like mouse farts

Yep, I can hear mouse farts, but put me anywhere with a lot of ambient noise, and I'm nearly reduced to lip reading.

Peroni in summer, various stouts in winter. Chocolate, coffee and a few days ago found a double cream stout.
