march 2008 TDV6 RRS HSE arrived today!

Picked it up this morning and am loving it, it looks amazing! Very Happy

Silver, S/C grille & vents, side steps, Chrome mirrors, 10 spoke 20" alloys, S/C black badges and most impressive is the hybrid TV, its amazing! All freeview channels and perfect picture.

I am in love with this car! Was sad to see my BMW go but what a replacement! Thumbs Up

Great car mate - still think tips would look great and you'd save £700 in the process! The german tips are fantastic - and they never get dirty and the outlet for the exhaust runs underneath the tip....

I know what you mean Nick but with the tips I'd feel like a bit of a fraudster, plus the Overfinch system sounds slighty better than standard V6 RRS exhaust.

£575 + VAT fitted so nothing like the rip off that is Project Kahn.......their similar offering costs closer to £1200 Shocked

It's a good point, but believe me you can't really tell and to be honest do you think you will get a better exhaust note on a V6? I debated the same as you for a while - wheels and exhaust - and in the end went for the tips - and I don't regret it at all....but hey mate - whatever you like and takes your fancy. I just want some smoked rear lights for mine now and then my upgrade is complete - nearing 3K worth of upgrades - but worth every penny

Nick have you thought about the full black laquer rear lights? I think they look amazing, if I had a Java this would definitely be the move for me....there was a thread on here some time ago and a guy had a photo of some (not fitted), they looked very professional, not a cheap spray job as was mentioned with some side repeater lenses.

As for the exhaust I'm going to go for the Overfinch.....maybe my dog will notice the difference in pitch Whistle
