They are Ace!!! Thanks for the supporting comment! This one is with 2,4i engine so there are not that much power but enough i suppose. One of the important reasons is that fuel consumption is not redicilous. (sorry if spelt wrong) I start to believe my guts and may very well buy that Frontie for me (= Mika |
