I'm looking into doing a days driving course with www.driverdp.com

But it states a limit of 98db's that will be tested on the day.

As my car is quite loud I'd like to get it tested before I commit.

Is there anywhere that would be happy for me to turn up and have it tested??

Thankswink

There's a lot to be said for that buddy!! I was offered strong money for the little E30 so........ Couldn't help myself!! biggrin

As for the '36, it really is on a different level!! Still got a couple of teething problem but when it's working properly, it really is special!!

Anyway, it's about time you got yours on track!! Come on now, no excuses:

E30 M3's are getting crazy prices now! I think maybe another year at this rate and I'd be temptedwink

Yes I know Jappa's car well mate, It's a bit of a leg-end on e36coupe.com

You'll be glad to know I did a track day @ coombe a few weeks back smile

Hi Alun. It was around 98/99Db between 4k rpm & 5k. Sounds louder to me. scratchchin

Don't know if the meter needs calibrating, theres a little adjuster on it which says 'cal adj' can't be that far out though shirly. scratchchin
