lol, that could only be one place. Honestly doesn't need a secretary as he gets more work than he can handle, all through word of mouth. To be honest I think STechnic and ASG get all the work they can handle as well. Can't comment on Race Torque or MMS as I have never visited them or seen their booking boards.

Any hints for those of us playing at home, or is there the concern you might get sued?

Spoke with the boys @ S-Technic over the phone today, turns out my motor had a busted piston prior to the water ingestion. Apparently part of the crown is missing on one of them and is nowhere to be seen. Got fkn lucky with that torrential down pour and my car ingesting it all that's for sure!

Hahaha LOL just lost my shit at above comment ^^^

Well the busted piston certainly explains a few things to me regarding some niggling issues I had with the car. Re: Oil consumption, hesitation/flat spot, burnt oil at idle when warm(very inconsistent though and would happen once or twice a week then not again for months).

As of right now, I want to sell up and go either an audi or bm. I am sure this will all change once I actually have it back in my garage. Mum's been kind enough to lend me her M Sport 335i for the past 4 weeks. It's actually pretty quick haha.

Whilst all is not lost, in the end I'll have a fresh motor and a pretty fkn cool ej25 table in my living room

If you are in some way suggesting I intentionally drove my car through storm water giving me a 50/50 chance of having an insurance claim approved, then you are dumber than I was to begin with.

Nauli, trying to get my buddy who is actually in the market for a car to check out yours. I had a good look myself, had no idea they were actually that epic.
