Good man! Best man for the job.
I think 1500 is Worth it.
Like me , you are going to spend 1,000s doing it up when in reaility we should have just bought a strad

 

[Hewbie]

Ha yes pounds! And very true!

I would very much like one of them, but.....

£1500 buys some Sports cats (used) and spacers, hmmm let me see...

I have no need for sports cats, but I'd quite like some spacers

Can just think of better ways to spend £1500 on the car is what I'm saying! Free up some more horses and volume plus make it look meaner.

I think both those suggestions are good uses of 1500!
I couldn't find any decently priced sports cats, and was warned off spacers by every single independent- they thought it would affect the drive and tyre wear etc. Agree cosmetically it would look loads
Better though. Luckily mine had the MD handling pack otherwise I would want it lowered.
I still can't find a better car for a price within 25k and now my wife has suddenly
Started saying how beautiful it is... women

That's really nice. Look forward to seeing the installed pics

It may be expensive, but it is surely a nice piece of kit! It gives pleasure just by looking at it!

 

[Hewbie]

Yes expensive!already and xpipe fitted etc and changed all interior trim to carbon fibre to match , wouldn't mind banging my front seats to something more bucket style if there is any around?? Stradale ones?

 

[iainw]

That would be a silly cost even for you!
They are multiple 1000s each. You really would have been better off buying an early strad

The problem I have with a carbon wheel. Which I don't have in the Masser but I do in my other car. Is in the summer (if the sun comes out) the steering wheel gets hot! Sometimes too hot to touch if the car has been left sitting in the sun and you get in.

Well sorry chaps, not a fan of Carbon in the cabin, the wood veneer is only ok, but the Piano black is fab
Guess which one I have!
Please do not ostra, er cut me off

I'm not too much of a fan of too much carbon. Seems like a massive amount of cash in most cases.

However did see a Zonda with the whole body in carbon and it was pretty awesome.
