What started off as a casual read of the forums this morning while at work has ended in me booking the C4S in for a little X51 love at Sussex.

Roll on July, cant wait! [:D]

Thanks to all the forum posters re retro fitting the X51, made great reading and after 30 minutes made me realize i need one... Just dont tell the wife [;)]

My wife will be told the whole truth, namely there is an engine recall on the car and it's going back to get sorted.[;)]

Nick - Nice one

Welcome to the dark side[:)]

Some one who shall remain nameless allegedly did not tell their wife and explained away the obvious performance improvement as ""some adjustments made after the car wen't in for a recall" and something to do with a replacement oil filter.....:ROFLMAO::rolleyes::ROFLMAO:

As they are still alive it appears they got away with it

wives really arent interested in such things anyway.....just keep all the invoices away from prying eyes and maybe offer a little jewellery.........for no particular reason....

Hi Yves,

No unfortunately not, is it available on-line on in electronic format?

Yves, if you can scan and post that would be great!

I've now completely forgotten that I'm meant to be working and seem to be spending my days trawling the net for more X51 info (sad)

Things got a little hairy on the A64 in Yorkshire this afternoon and I've convinced myself that the extra 20bhp would have made all the difference[;)]

26bhp ( minimum if you dont mind ) but in reality lots more.....

Doesnt sound like much on paper but I bet Mr Alonso would like 26bhp more than Mr Hamilton right now !
