One more sleep! (well, probably two...)

So my F31 335d goes in to the dealer tomorrow to get a set of ACS springs and struts fitted. Actually can't wait! Weirdly they want the car for 2 days so It'll be a long wait to get the car back - obviously due to the upgrade but more that the faster it's away from the overcrowded carpark and the valeters rags the better!!

Since I'm spending loads in blind faith I've been a bit of a weirdo and driven around some local roads with the GoPro stuck to the side of the car with the aim of repeating it after the ACS stuff is fitted, just so I can see (as well as feel) what the improvements have been. More out of pure curiosity than anything else since I'm far from a suspension expert! I have to say it's been an eye opener seeing how long the car takes to settle after a compression. It just looks like a weird mix of really fast reactions to small imperfections (to the point it almost looks undamped) to the double "wallow" after a speed hump etc.

Roll on friday!
