Love that pic of the turbo in the snow. That's what these cars are designed for. Now imagine seeing a ferrari or lambo in conditions like that...

I want to drive on a road like that.

That's 124'300 miles.

Thanks Watt! Looking forword to meeting you in a few months!

4carl, I hadn't too many problems, and especially no serious one. Here a few things that come to mind:
- airflow meter replaced
- fuel gauge recalibrated
- oil leak at the slave-cylinder
- oil leak at the pipe to the slave-cylinder
- rear-wing motors replaced (twice, back in 2002, no probs since then)
- cover of the center-console is crap
- some bolts holding the thermal protection of the exhaust got a bit loose. seems ok now.
- ... I probably forget a few details, but nothing major. Clutch and turbos are the original ones.

Right now, the tranny sounds a bit strange, but it's been like that for about 15-20'000 km, so we'll see. The H&R suspension is getting old (3 years, lots of track days and hard driving), and will be partially replaced (springs are still good).

Oh, and countless of brake pads, discs and... tires!

Greetings,
--Pierre
