That's what I love about Colm, he'll tell you exactly what he thinks lol. I'm sure you can't wait to feel the difference nowwhat was the funniest bit of all though is how he sees things differently.
I drove the car over and commented on how nicely it was driving. He told me it was driving like a bag of crapand if I thought it was smooth when I left it up it will feel like a new car.

You know that scene in Pulp Fiction where Uma Thurman is in the bathroom hoovering a bit of Colombia’s finest and utters the words ‘God Damn’ a couple of times.
Well I said God Damn!
Collection day….
The first guy to take me to collect the M3 when I won it was @big_pete so it was only fitting he and I high tailed it to Colm’s place this evening to collect my ‘new M3’
Holy sweet lord. It’s hard to describe the difference but I’ll try.
Firstly the car is smooth. Really smooth. It is really free revving and the vanos is using the full sweep to deliver the power in a very linear manner. It pulls really really well. Not sure if it’s the diff, the engine itself or a combination of the sum of all parts. But it works. And it works damn well.
It sounds amazing with no rattles from the head gasket flapping.
I only assumed it was driving well until I experienced it really driving well.
We took the road through Dromore and over the Dromore Hills and Pete and I then swapped cars. I let him take it the last 20 mins to work with specific instructions to give it the full beans and see what he thought.
I believe he’s as suitably impressed as I am.
I’m in love all over again. What a f*cking marvellous car.
Colm Hyland. What an absolute gentleman and a genius with these cars. Couldn’t recommend him enough

He must have had your car well tucked away when working on it, I walk the dog passed his twice a day and never noticed your car there.
mother and father in law wouldn’t take their BMW’s anywhere else other than him and the main reason they buy bm’s in the first place.
