Brocks Brocks Addict Registered: 11th Jan 2007 Posts: 220 Loc: Wirral	The reasontop gear slated it was because.... 1. Clarkson hates Vx 2. They removed the fuse for the traction control 3. They removed the fuse for ESP Driven by a knob with all the stability programs disabled...What did they think would happen. Nice buy Jonah! I swapping mine too. Stripped the parts off it yestereday. Sold the grille and Skirts, just the splitter and VXR alloys to sell! _________________________ _____________________________________________
