Hello james. Firstly thank you for your videos and content I really appreciate being able to learn from content you spend the time to produce. . I’m currently looking to buy an S1 very soon. I’ve been on a couple of test drives and love it. There will be one in my drive soon. I wondered if you can share the information about the wheels. I know it was mentioned on one of your videos but I am having trouble finding it again. I like you would prefer not to use spacers and I would like to know the specs for the wheels and where you purchased them. Thank you.

I’ve got one as My Daily & I Love it. Can’t praise it enough. Loads ask me about it when I’m fuelling it. You nailed it when you mentioned about just having enough power. It’s got enough to make you smile but never really get you into trouble. Perfect Daily. Mine is a Competition Model in Sepang Blue.

Thinking of getting an S1 Is there anything to look out for when buying one? Any common faults or anything like that, great vid.
@jamesr503 жыл бұрын
Thanks the s1’s are pretty solid only thing to look out for is the heaters make sure they blow hot when on hot settings’s they have a back silica in the coolant tank that breaks over time that blocks the heater matrix if you buy one remove it when you can and the DRL’s are common for going 👍🏻

When I got my S1 APR stage 1 tuned it felt like that's what the car should have been stock. The stock turbo elbows are crap and need and are a cheap upgrade. Easily the most fun car I've ever driven and the sedate looks don't draw attention from plod.

Yep you hit it the stock elbows ain’t up to much on any of the cars with the ea888 engine, stage 1 quick and reliable👌🏻
