Well the best improvement is the gearbox
The 8 speed is so slick,with that paddle shift to
It's very smooth,I found the 6 speed a bit jerky
There's lots of other bits
The drl lights,front bumper rear lights
The i drive a lot better,the engine has 20 or so hp more
Haven't really given it some,as I'm still running it in

It's a lady's name. I know Mandeep could be either but it's an 'English' name from memory! Bought it from MCE Cars?
