      New AC Schnitzer badge added to the tailgate. There was an old design badge there when I bought the car back in 2010 but I was never really sure about the look of that one

        Very nice car, I love the wheels Is the ACS suspension the same as the Bilstein B12 set (B8 with Eibach I believe). I’m in doubt changing my KW V2 suspension for a B12 set so I’m curious if the Bilstein will be a good choice for me.

          Hi Neil, they're definitely based on Bilstein shocks, but I'm not 100% sure which sure, but I think ChrisW did suggest that they were B8. The springs feature ACS markings - if you look in DaveP's Schnitzer photos thread, I'm pretty sure he's very recently posted a photo of the ACS springs which may provide further info to confirm part number

          I just enjoy driving the car, I've not much knowledge of part numbers

                        I'll obviously be looking for an alternative outcome!

                            Just a load of things that involve money all coinciding mate. This is my 10th year of owning the car and I really don't want to see it go, I still get every bit as much pleasure from driving it as day 1.

                            Having said that I thought I'd only have it for 2, so the last 8 years have been a huge bonus anyway

                            • It’s been a good run then!

                              I have been using mine less and less but still plan on keeping it. It doesn’t get used over the winter but I’ve bought a RS3 recently to do winter/weekend with kids in car, problem is that it is so fast/capable its hard to justify having both....however I’m going to as the ///M is such a unique car!

                              I’m trying to say, no rash decisions!

                              • I say keep it if financially viable.
