Spot on.... ;) Glad you like it Andy, hopefully you'll have as much fun in it as i did! Oh, and love the 106 too, that looks the business. Is that a 2" Pugsport exhaust? I used to have a 1.6 106 XSi, awesome cars.

Thanks for the comments, James. All useful stuff that I can take on board.

Cheers, to be honest i originally had it at about 700 words, but they requested between 1000 and 1200, so i padded it out a bit. I guess its a skill of a journalist to keep the reader interested so that they don't realise its so long. All stuff i need to learn....

Yep that's right - basically £10k per year. Some people get the idea, some don't. Hey Christopher, i'm up in Lymm at the mo visiting the folks for xmas, i'll keep an eye out for the FPM, i'm in my girlfriends poxy 1.2 Dynamique - where's all the power gone?!?!?!?!

Cheers for the comments all, it means a lot that people like it! I got into it through my membership to http://www.ecurie25.co.uk I've been a member for a couple of years, and whenever i took a car out i stuck a little 500 word post up on the Pistonheads forum about it. I got a fair bit of...

Afternoon all, Don't know if any of you will be interested, but i've done my first full road test peice for Pistonheads. Its on the frontpage at the moment, or click here: http://www.pistonheads.com/roadtests/doc.asp?c=47&i=17359 All comments welcome.

'Wierd', but certainly addictive! It goads me into driving to the limiter so i can make it do its little vocal tricks, and ends up with me doing 23mpg!!!

Sorry to say it, but that looks ridiculous to me. There's low, and there's silly low which looks like your car has no suspension...

Ha! I knew there was a reason why i've kept all my Autocars every week back to 1992..... I'll get back to this once i've found that Reg number...

So nobody has any info on where Monkey's car went? (after the brief thread tangent...)

Surely someone must know its whereabouts?

I don't like any other wheels, just those Comps. They really suit the more rounded nature of the car IMO.

I was just thinking back, and remembered that Chris Harris had a Black Gold Mk2 V6 as an Autocar Long termer a while ago. Now the main difference was it had a full cream leather interior - a £1500 option IIRC. Not seen it anywhere since, so i wonder if it went on to be a renault UK car, or if...

For me, the addition of those 18" Compomotives makes the V6 look a million times better... http://www.rims-cars.co.uk/RIMSStock/10.htm I want!!!!!

Anyone live near Wickford that fancies coming round and having a look? I've got decent mechanical nous, but if there's someone near who knows Clios inside out and would be able to diagnose instantly it'd be a real help. I've not had it too long, and haven't had to work on it yet! There'll be a...
