:D
Been out for a decent run in the S4 this afternoon and the work on the engine certainly made a marked difference, the shove in the back is fair bit more than with the 1.8, it's not quite up to V8 standards but it's decently quick enough.
With the sun shining the quick ;) trip out round the local A roads was very enjoyable and now looking forward to the trip to Portmerion with the local car club in a couple of weeks.

Well, mine's a daily driver so used every day but it's been especially pleasant now it's warming up a bit

Must admit that getting the car back up and running for this nice bit of sunshine we are having was a real tonic - seemed to be one step forwards two steps back recently - too many commitments to other peoples cars and not enough put in on my own - still when 4 cars should all be road at the same time between 3 of us it should be worth while.
The S4 will be on E-Bay in about a month or so when the Westfield is fully up and running and at that time the weather should have improved the selling potential.
Cheers

Been having great fun lately, much more fun with some one else to play with :)
Only had one problem and that was a sticky brake pad (quite a bit off smoke from th n/s/f ooops :) ) oh and my battery is'nt very happy so i'm carrying a jump pack about :P
Its a bit quicker and grips better than my mates locost :). He weighs in at just under 600kg with a 2.0 pinto. (grip should be sorted with better tyres) :ph43r:
