Unique is having the only private Cupra in the country. It didn't last long though, but they're still far from common.
I just wish people wouldn't ask what kind of Suzuki it is.
But that would mean living in NZ and is not my cup of tea, apart form a holiday.

Its natural to want more if you can get it. It feels like cheating, like you are getting something for nothing.

Im the same with PCs, having always overclocked from the minute Windows is installed and ready. With this car though, being a lease im a bit limited so will probably not do it.

Between you and me, it's not mine either. But I have golden shackles here. (Pension and my wife's profession)
At the moment Labour and the Greens are determined to have us all driving tired Jap cast off EV's. We'll be the only country in the world that'll subsidise used EV's.

Had mine a couple months then decided it needed a res delete and air intake. Exhaust should have been like that as standard, air intake is just personal thing really; I like the sound and why wouldn’t you want as much air as possible? But on the list isn’t loads mostly tyres, springs and a few cosmetic bit maybe stage 1 not sure yet. Don’t get me wrong Car is spot on as standard but as most people say on here there’s always something that you can do for either yourself to satisfy or to make it better to drive.
