Not really - ABD / Carbonio do good filters

Coilovers - people like KW, but VMaxx are good too, as are Jamex if you can find someone who knows what they're selling.

Remaps, well, anyone local I guess! I could do it but you're better off staying local.

Exhausts - Blue Flame, Jetex, Piper - all are good, and vary in price. I do the Blueflames pretty cheap.

Or Weitec springs over Koni FSDs.

I'd give it a thorough service and check over before i started spending money on tuning. Give her some intensive TLC, then splash out on the above mentioned stuff.

It's pretty awesome standard to be honest though! I've pushed mine pretty hard and she loves it!!

Weitec do springs for the vrs? i was'nt aware of that.

Amen to that. Mines got a 12 month warranty and the insurance broker had a fit at the mention of a dump valve and a remap so will have to wait until renewal time next March before I consider any mods... :( nice enough as standard though

yeah its getting full service first and some vrs mats, brighter bulbs etc first then after i got used to it go for some sensible mods.

cheers guys

Get the cambelt and water pump done if they havent been done recently other wise everything else will be pointless

yeah thats getting done. i read that in the buyers guide. cheers

Most of us find Powerbulbs very good for uprated headlights. I got 4x 50% brighter H4s, and 2 Philips "blue white" sidelight bulbs for £20 delivered. Even the sidelight bulbs were worth having (much whiter light than a standard sidelight bulb, never mind the "black glass" effect on the originals that I took out.
