Impressive! I'm looking to put in a K&N air filter soon, just so it doesn't need to be replaced in future.

I would like to hear feedback on any performance/sound improvements you have. I'm looking into buying one myself for the 1.8.

Similar here on 196K although wheel bearings all round a few wishbones and the alternator have been replaced. Oh and services at about 12k

137k miles on mine.
Pretty much everything changed that possible but drives like a new car :P Partially because of my OCD and pursuit-of-excellence, partially due to normal wear&tear.

Ur getting cone or standard drop-in K&N?
I got the latter one week ago, nice improvement but probably not as good as with cone, just too much hassle for me.
