Loads of problems with my first Cup, when the gearbox went it came out of the dealership with 14 other problems so bad was the job. I refused to take the car back, Renault UK got involved and the car got sorted, stay clear of Tonbridge Renault. Bought another Cup a few weeks ago, took it in...

Had my valve replaced and had the link fitted at the same time. I argued the case and had new rear discs and pads as well. Car feels sooo much better under breaking now. J

Si - thats why I went to Davis on Saturday, get there for 8.15am and you are first, while u wait job. Refreshing service compared to Whithouse and I watched my car being serviced so i know my oil was used. J.

Thats right only £97.50. Took my own oil and car has a panel filter.... They try to charge a set time for the labour but I insisted I would only pay for the time the mechanic was working on the car which was less than an hour. Davis in Sevenoaks was the dealer, the only one I could find that...

Took my Cup back for wear on the back brakes, discs had a small lip. The dealer phoned to say the Brake bias valve was faulty. I asked for the discs and pads to be replaced as well foc as the faulty part had caused the wear. To my utter shock Renault agreed ! Can you try another dealer ? If...

Arturo - what a real beauty ! Regards Jason

Swap the front tyres side to side.. Renault did mine when they were half worn as I complained about the pulling and it sorted it. J.

Spotted a silver 928 in the car park with nice front end damage. Sabine said there was a meeting of Yanks and she had been asked to do a lap in a 928 but turned it down, M5s only for that lady ! J.

The Ring Taxi does a set of tyres a day and is serviced every day. Its only kept for 6months and then disposed off as the damage to the chassis is quite severe. Even at £50 a lap it makes no money but is a good pr excercise for BMW. J

It was a shakedown for the CannonBall later in the month. The rear anti roll bar did its stuff and kept the back so tight it meant you having to use the front to get in corners hard, not good ! Getting Sabine to drive was a publicity thing as the car is being sponsored for Sight Savers. Its...

I was there !! We fitted a uprated rear anti roll bar, shame really as the car would not oversteer, Sabine did try and just managed to kill the front tyres. Her control of the car was nothing short of amazing, around Showboat and Brunchen with one hand waving at the crowds with the other. The...

Spotted the Cup... I was there in a grey Kellerman M5, with nice loud pipes ! We even got Sabine to do 6 laps in it which was an experience. Tyres that were new now look a little worn, brakes are AP 6 pots so no problems there !! J.

Plus Vat etc, Cup with climate is 13k from Makro !!!

Interested.

Without wishing to piss on your bombfire they are not a good long term purchase. I know as I bought a set 2nd hand for my Subaru. The biggest problem is they have no dust seals, wait till we get salt on the roads. Yes they look the nutz but compare the breaking power with AP four or AP six...
