Now, I know it's heresy, but I really like my Cossie Estate and  am even thinking of minor mods.
So...Does the team think?
What  about 17 inch wheels and if so what size tyres are going to fit
Stainless exhaust....so that it sounds a bit more grrrr.
Any advice for a bit more oomph..it's quick enough but no faster than my old Sierra 4x4...does anything this side of an engine rebuild actuall make any diff??
Cheers

a cone style air filter gives a better sound and a little more go.

The answers in the question.... the diff Wink
 
Fit the 4.27 ratio diff out of the 2.0 16v and you'll take nearly two seconds off your 0-60 time (and 5mpg off your fuel consumption)Wink
