    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    No idea. I was thinking of buying one of those OBD dongles, they show the temp in degrees.

    Thank you for the recommendation and link Antti! Those things really are a must-have for our part of the world. Skickat från min Redmi 3 via Tapatalk

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    Now that's where I expect it to be. I'll probably change it when I do the service and see what happens. Thermostats are cheap. The grey one I wanted to buy at first had heaters installed, this one doesn't. I might install some for the next winter as this one is almost over. Skickat från min...

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    OK, thanks! You did the right thing, the history and specs are more important than the color. I can understand why you didn't enjoy the ring. I watch a lot of onboard videos and it looks like you need to be constantly checking your mirrors and moving over if you have anything with less than...

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    Thank you! I will probably do my first track day in may, on a close-by track here in Sweden (Mantorp park) but the goal is to go to the Ring and Spa (love it how close they are to each other!) someday soon, doubt it will be this year though, maybe next one. How come you bought a white one if...

    Hmm, ok, seemed a bit low to me. Thanks!

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    Is this normal guys? The temperature gauge never goes higher than this, no matter how hard I drive. Yes, it is cold outside, minus 5 degrees C currently, but still...

    Tackar! Den som finns i Ängelholm? Har kollar på bilderna och så men har ej varit och kollat på den så jag vet ingenting om den. Mitt intryck från bilderna var att den inte är välskött. Det är nåt fel på skinnet på själva spaken och det verkar finnas repor och stort gap i panelen där. Det skulle...

    No good ones I'm afraid. :disappointed: I prefer the Nimbus Grey tbh, like yourself, but this red has grown on me. :grinning:

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    LOL, I added a pic mate :grinning: Thanks for your input, I'll look into it but it will have to wait 'till it gets a bit warmer outside, I'm not doing s*** at -2 degrees C :angry:

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    So, thought I'd start a project tread for my 197. I will list both what I plan to do to it and what I plan to do with it. Currently (March 16th 2017) the to-do list goes something like this: Fix a few scratches and dents on the paint. Get the 10 year service done. Get the Bilsteins or H&R's...

    Should I buy a '06 with 125000 km?

    Thank you! Here's a pic for those that wanted one!

    Should I buy a '06 with 125000 km?

    Hmm, you cannot edit a post on this forum, or am I missing something? I wrote bushing in my previous post but I really meant ball joint.

    Should I buy a '06 with 125000 km?

    Thanks. Will do, just gotta get around to washing it and taking some decent pics. Kinda busy driving for now :smile: Either that or some ball joint needs replacing. I'm not 100% but it feels like it pulls to the opposite side under hard acceleration. Will look closer into it...

    Should I buy a '06 with 125000 km?

    So, thought I'd write a little update. Someone bought it the day before I was supposed to go see it so I ended up buying a red one with 75000 km for 7500 euros a couple of days later. It seems to be taken care of well enough according to the service history and it goes like it should apart from...

    Should I buy a '06 with 125000 km?

    The last belt change was done at 60 000 km way back in 2012. The dealer is full of s***, as expected, and says the next change is in 2 years or at 150 000 km. So, if I buy it I should drive it straight to the nearest service center and get a full fat service done on it which will bring the price...

    Congratulations Antti. Looks like a nice car! The one I'm considering has had 5 owners. Apparently, the first owner sold it after only one year! All 4 197's currently on sale here in Sweden have 4+ owners, not counting dealerships so I's great that you could find one with only one owner...

    Project cars PS4

    ATM the top 3 most realistic driving games/simulators are Assetto Corsa, iRacing and rFactor so I'd look into those. Do you have a wheel and pedals?
