It's whats known in the trade as a Friday afternoon engine. They set out to make a 4.2, but realise that they don't have enough time to finish it before the buzzer goes for the weekend, so to complete the build, a cunning plan is hatched amongst the staff..................
And that children, is how the 3.7 was born......... ![]()

Jolly banter and no offence intended!
I thought it might be a hybrid or something with an engine that size intended to charge the batteries...... ![]()

Happy to report that the wheels I purchased have been delivered. It took two weeks rather than the 72 hours that the site said.
They are brilliant and I'm glad I got them from where I did because I saved almost £200. They look great and from what I can tell they are genuine Mak. ie all the right paper work is there and the quality looks fine. I'm not fitting them for a couple of weeks, as I am having the Audi tow bar added as well. So I'll get them changed over at the same time. Pics of the tow bar and wheels in a couple of weeks ![]() |

They look a similar style to OEM so should look great.
What size did you end up going for, the 18's as planned or something bigger? ![]()

I just went for the exact same wheel size! Which means that the tyres having only done 1500 miles, will swap straight over
![]() edited Sorry yes that was 18" |

Thanks
![]() Aside from the looks, I am really looking forward to being able to clean them easily. Those ten spoke things are a total nightmare to clean. |
