Same driver, same track, same day? Who cares which car won. Theyre both good cars for different reasons. Strange how the CTR was 2 or 3 tenths slower round Angelsey that the FRS last time round...

Im not suprised, he cracked his right front disk on the way round so he was taking it fairly easy

Just found a few pics of me going in a bit deep at Breidsheid (I think) :oops: http://www.schaki.de/fotos/albums/ostersontag/ostern05%20806.jpg http://www.schaki.de/fotos/albums/ostersontag/ostern05%20807.jpg http://www.schaki.de/fotos/albums/ostersontag/ostern05%20808.jpg...

Was there too with my Civic and got a few pics of you guys lapping on Sunday morning after the weather cleared. Will post them in the other thread when I can be bothered to resize them. Have to say that both Nick Read and CupCake looked like they were trying hard whenever they went past me...

6 or 7k for a decent example at a rough guess

Thats what I paid for 4 of them on the 172 last year. Superb tyres as well.

Yeah same car - its had 5 previous owners iirc - hence the price

well tbh that CTR is 1.5-2k below what its actually worth (for reasons Im sure you aware of - if its the same car I think it is) My (now ex) other half got her 172 back in 2002 so I have had 2.5 yrs of driving that round and racked up a fair amount of miles in both. Both have their pluses and...

CTRs are only really fully run in at 21k miles so I wouldnt worry too much about that mileage. You can also get a warranty extension at any dealer (prices vary so shop around). Running costs on the CTR are a little higher (ins group 17) and a full tank of fuel (45 litres) lasts me between 160...

The poster of the topic on the TypeR forums drives a Fiat Coupe 20v Turbo iirc, not a Civic...
